Ratings and reviews

The app used to work ok about a few months ago. It's a good idea that is either abandoned or very poorly executed. The latest glitch is that I can't edit my posts anymore and smilies show as a question marks. I'm forced now to go back to the full version of Facebook App that I dislike even more, but at least I can perform basic functions in the full version. Until this app is fixed it's not worth it, despite it's very small imprint on your phone memory. Uninstalling mine.

Screen goes black when scrolling through posts on certain pages. Double tapping the back button does not close the app (like every other app out there), it scrolls to the top of your newsfeed and refreshes it instead. Ridiculously prioritizes advertisements over post (you may see 20 plus advertisements before your actual news feed). Disregards your selection when choosing types of posts you aren't interested in, shows them anyway. Makes topic blocking complicated.

The app says it needs to update, but that fails, year when I go into my list of apps needing updates, there are 11 apps listed, and FB Lite isn't among them. The result is a number of other apps won't run, because they tried to launch the FBLite app, which then says it needs to update before I can run, which then doesn't update, which means the parent apps can't run 🤷
