FBM for Facebook!

This application is an implementation of the Facebook mobile website written into an application to allow advanced features. It uses the official Facebook SDK to provide features such as notifications.

Please note this application should be considered an optimized web browser for http://touch.facebook.com - any page you see in this application can be accessed using your default Android browser.

The advantage of using an application is that features such as notifications, contact sync and direct photo/video uploads can be integrated directly into the Android operating system. At the moment notifications have been implemented. More features will be added in future updates.

Features:
• Full Facebook Support
• Touch Optimized UI
• Check-in (GPS must be enabled)
• Upload Photos
• Notifications

Does the job of a lite client for Facebook very well. You can view messages, respond, check out pictures, photo galleries, navigate to other profiles/groups, etc quite well. Swype works in the editor too, as expected. What doesn't work: Comments entered cannot be edited or deleted. Not sure, but I don't believe you can change addressing comments to individual groups or people. These are minor inconveniences, IMO. If you are able to view your messages, respond to them and generally user FB well, that makes this a great app in my book.

Used to love this app, it's starting to have quiet a few issues lately. Mainly it has connection/loading issues. My internet clearly works but yet this app doesn't load or halfway loads. Press the back button, it starts back at the beginning rather the were you were, thinking about deleting after having it 7 months, great app if these issues are resolved.

Y70%
by Y####:

This is the only reliable Facebook app I can find. It uses much less space on my phone than the original Facebook app and doesn't force close like the original fb app. Only issues.....can't post pics to my group pages, can't tag friends in a post. I've contacted support twice with no response. If these issues are fixed, I'll give the app 5 stars!

P70%
by P####:

Good app but has 2 things can be better. 1st thing is everytime that someone leave comment in my stt. The noti always takes me to my profile, not my stt 2nd thing is I cant tag friend in comment. I'll give 5 stars when the problems be fixed!

U70%
by U####:

This blows the Facebook app away on a slower phone. Much faster and now I can share posts. Couldn't on Facebook app. Only problem is it always notifies for the same notification unless you check the notification. Add option to disable certain notifications, if possible. Also an option for quiet time would be useful.

B70%
by B####:

Only downfalls I see is lack of name tagging, sharing to friends & issues with video play (build in player would be wise like many other apps use) & copy & paste issues as well as a picture save feature. Ya, I don't ask for much, lol Great app otherwise

U70%
by U####:

Where are the fixes to copy/paste? Still Fbm menu BETA???Was 3 stars in 2012... searching for yet another fb alternative...Why must one be so lacking? Will give more stars when you fix these core necessities. Uninstalling since no support!

G70%
by G####:

At least it got rid of the annoying right side on FB. Better use of the space for what I want to see. Still annoying, that the hide button does not keep things I want hidden... Very annoying. Why m have the hide button of it only hides it for a few seconds?.... if you can fix this... I can even rate you a "10"..

U70%
by U####:

A very useful and easy app indeed! I likebit really. But there are some problems occuring such as uploading photos and having a lot of adds below. Can the team help me to work this out? Sometimes when I upload and it keeps on returning to home, it freaks me out haha! But I still appreciate it really :)

U70%
by U####:

The apps is good, it works well.. But, what is up with the force close? And plus, the picture. Everytime i want to see some pic, its always cropped by itself. Not resizing or anything. So please fix it, need update please.. Thanks before, and so sorry for my english :)

U70%
by U####:

I love it...but you need to add a few things.One thing is photo sharing like on the original FB app on android. And two fix it so that when you click on a notification it will stop going back to my profile. But in all I have tried different FB apps but this is the best out of all.So keep coming with the updates ..

K70%
by K####:

Love how fast and small this is but I see 2 major things to improve. 1. Sort by most recent. 2. After viewing a post, clicking back please take me back to that spot. I hate having to scroll through stuff again. A jump to top along with this would be superb.

M70%
by M####:

Installed and removed before, but after giving is a second look... it delivers.. only slight bug right now is the notification that pops up even after I read it.. but trivial for me.

U70%
by U####:

This app is a life saver, if you're on a slow network like I am, you can't access face book at all without this app. Does everything the official FB app does and so much quicker! Thanks

U70%
by U####:

It becomes a dread to pay for things like this app for them not to be fully functional! Can't even watch videos cuz its a black screen.wish I would've stayed with free version

U70%
by U####:

Probably the best Facebook alternative with complete features. Just a bit slow and unresponsive. Sometimes opens a link or post I didn't even click. And no notifications for new messages. I didn't like the persistent notifications

O70%
by O####:

I like your app it just needs some updates on it to be rated a5. like tagging someone and picture sharing or posting to ur page from YouTube. Thanks fix problems I'll give a5~10 star review

U70%
by U####:

Great alternative to official facebook app just one problem support is not good I sent an email with a problem I have and several days later it's not been answered. I purchased the add free version too! If support was good then would be five stars.

U70%

I expected that this app would be the best Clone Application of the real Facebook Application but I'm dissappointed! I thought it has NO ADS!! but STILL ADS keeps on POPPING UP and is Really Very Annoying!! Install if you want but be prepared!

U70%
by U####:

Really loved app but when I got a new phone it wouldn't let me in!!! Locked out of the best Facebook app ever!!! It tells me that I have given permissions for it to post to fb for me but won't let me in! It says I need new permissions to set up but won't let me do it. It keeps taking me to the login page. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!

U70%
by U####:

I really like this app...just a few things, though. I don't like that it tells me I have 20 notifications every ten minutes. Yes, I know so-and-so sent me a game request two weeks ago. No, I am not going to go through and click on every untouched notification just to get the app to stop telling me they're there. And it crashes about as often as the official facebook app did (which is why I went looking for an alternative.) There's potential here, though.

V70%
by V####:

It's okay. Does what it says. Basically just opens the web page but gives you a more elaborate third party interface to navigate. Ads are lame though.

H70%
by H####:

Doesn't do anything that the mobile site doesn't do. I installed this so I could upload pics, but only got a basic text facebook site. Shame.

K70%
by K####:

Text links still work, but shared links do not unless you revert to the old Compatibility Mode. Please fix this! It worked so well before!

Q70%
by Q####:

I logged in and it kept saying new permissions need approved. I clicked ok and I would get the working circle and I'd get the permissions needed approved. This was stuck on an endless loop. Uninstalling immediately.

Y70%
by Y####:

I'm using an Android Chaser witch was running low on RAM, a lot of my space was being consumed by FB for A. This freed up like 20mgbts on my drive. Thank you soooo much!!!

Y70%
by Y####:

Get notifications & low on memory. I keep getting the refresh circle at the bottom if my screen & it doesn't go away. Wld like to be able to share to others walls. Not able to upload pics & it forecloses every 10 minutes.

E70%
by E####:

I really like this app, been using this app over an year or more. Only major issue I have is when scrolling down and click on picture to read comments, once you exit it takes back top of post. Then you need to scroll back to where you were.

T70%
by T####:

I've been using this one for some time and there have been improvements. FBM lets you select text,which comes very handy. But, when you clear notifications in the status bar, they come over again until you haven't read them on fb; this is a bit counter-intuitive and could be improved upon.

U70%
by U####:

I am unable to understand why Syndroid wants to post to my friends' walls. As it is, I am worried about my data being out there....now these jokers want to post to my friends' walls on my behalf ?! Why don't they simply ask for my Social Security number, bank account number and my garage PIN, while they are at it ?!

X70%
by X####:

Ok but I get notifications for not messages and it only give s the notification for postings on my time line and not for the message. So you are requested to kindly update this software. Ok but this software needs updating as it gives notification on timeline postings

Jus wish I can watch videos I have a desperate app jus to do it ..plz fix then it will b best fb app.

X70%
by X####:

I hope at some point it will support push notifications. Right now you get a notification, clear it and get it again unless you mark it as read on Facebook. Also polling uses more battery and data. Also the loading circle at the bottom is always there. I don't get this by using the website directly.

Y70%
by Y####:

Originally I downloaded and loved this app because it was old school mobile facebook. It loaded a few stories at a time and I was able to very quickly scroll through my feed because it didn't have all the extra bull crap. Now it's exactly like every other facebook app or just using the browser and is no good to me.

X70%
by X####:

Okay I like how it has a "share" button & "edit" button like the original page has... BUT it keeps foreclosing on me and not letting me know I have notifications.. and when it does, it sends me to my profile page. Fix plz it's getting annoying!!!!

X70%
by X####:

Love this app, not huge and works well. Use it all the time. My only complaint is that I can't tag. I managed to tag a couple times but now I can't which means I have to get on a pc in order to tag someone. Otherwise love this app!

X70%
by X####:

Great app. Smooth and fast. Only problem I have encountered is the Facebook videos play only the audio. All other videos open in external apps and work fine.

X70%
by X####:

This app used to be the best now it has a glitch that the home page is my messages. Annoying and cannot change it.

X70%
by X####:

This app is a solid and stable one but lacks some basic functionality from the Facebook Mobile experience. I realize its lightweight but adding a few MB in size won't hurt anyone running a phone in the modern era. My Huawei Y300 is almost 4 years old and runs this app w/ ease. I have plenty installed also.

C70%
by C####:

I've used this app before (many times) to try and get away from the crappy Facebook app...just installed this and uninstalled it 5 minutes later. Screen is stuck on the authorize the app and continue, it's in an annoying loop that won't go away...at least I tried
