Simply for Facebook
Free AppAbout Simply for Facebook
More and more people are switching from the Facebook Android app to the browser version. This is for a number of reasons such as performance, memory or battery management. While this is actually a very good experience, there are things you are likely to miss, including a dedicated icon in your launcher and separation from your other browsing activities in 'recents'.
This is where Simply comes in.
Simply utilities the power of Chrome custom tabs to give you an app-like experience coupled with the performance of the Chrome browser (yes, you'll need Chrome installed!). Simply is fast and lightweight. It has a Facebook-like design with a dedicated button on the auto-hiding app bar to return to the 'Recent Activity' view. Facebook links can be automatically handled by Simply (if you choose) too.
Simply is - and always will be - lightweight and free of bloat. While we will add a few menu shortcut links in a future release, we have no desire to create a full fat heavyweight app.
As Simply uses Chrome Custom Tabs, all your existing auto-complete and browsing data is available - as are notifications. If you prefer an app with a completely siloed web view, you should check out the excellent Tinfoil app.
Samsung multi-window is now supported.
Enjoy using Simply!

Latest update made the app unusable. Once you click a post, backing no longer allow you to view where you left off. It just refreshes every single time. Additionally, you also lost the ability to open a web page with the browser you prefer. Previous version are so much better.

But definitely has it's limitations. You can't share pictures to the app and I can't back out of the app. I have to go home because the app constantly reloads when hitting the back Burton to exit.

I like the app. It seemed good, but the one thing you cannot do is change the setting to show most recent items. As much as the regular Facebook app defaults to top stores too, at least you can change it. With Simply, you can't.

Sure it's missing some features of the FB app but it keeps the battery from draining as much so I prefer this.

The back button never exits, so opening links from another app means I can never get back :/

This app has a problem in texting. Whenever I write something a little large, I can't see most of the text. Also, same scroll lag as google chrome makes it very annoying...

This is what Facebook Lite should have been. It has one issue though. It doesn't exit on hitting back, just keeps refreshing the page. 2 stars deducted of that.

I can't share anything to this app. If I wanted to share articles I'm reading within any browser and try to share that article, Simply is not an option to share the article to. Viewing profile photos is horrible with this app. Any image you pull up is too big to view in portrait mode. You have to select View Full Image to see the image scaled to your screen properly. Not a complete alternative.
