About this app

Your social media app should work for you. It should be light, functional and beautiful. It should look how you want it and be accessible everywhere, with lightning fast launch speeds. Metal does this. And more.

And now it supports Twitter, too. Two social networks, one tiny app.

What is Metal?
If you're looking for a battery efficient alternative to the official app, Metal is for you. It's a Web wrapper with some awesome enhancements you don't get from just a browser like Notifications, Floating windows and Themes.

Ratings and reviews

Waaaay too keen to refresh when you scroll up. If you're editing a post, be prepared to lose it without warning as you try to scroll to the top of the text you've entered, only to be summarily redirected to a blank page because the app thought you wanted to refresh. The editing box itself also needs to be twice the size. Apart from that it's a good app.

Brilliant for Facebook. There are a couple of things that don't quite work: You can't seem to switch to commenting under your own name when you are the administrator of a page. The option to switch is there but it doesn't change it. App lock: If you open it again app doesn't ask for password. Useless Update Oct 2021: messenger no longer works, downloding pics crashes the app more often than not. no keyboard on some comment boxes or no tag possible even when typing "#" first. Uninstalled the app.

I use this app alot and have done for years but im about to look for an alternative since bugs are never fixed. Firstly when get a tag notification - clicking on it doesn't take you to the comment but to the top of post so its impossible to find your tag if it's a big public post. Secondly, vieiwing and saving images is just terrible in every way (youll see what i mean). The "most recent" news feed button isnt on front page and somwtimes broken. Never see posts from friends any more either.
