No ability to send my reason why I disagree and the other problems. continuously receive requests from obviously fake profiles from "women" with large breasts in skimpy outfits. All their other friends are from Ghana or Nigeria so obviously Russian trolls. I report and get replies that FB sees no issue. No way to actually send real message more -

Why we chose Facebook Marketplace.
- Built right into the Facebook app, Marketplace lets you list anything from cars to knickknacks and sell them right in your neighborhood. Or ship to buyers around the world
- App offers lots of tips for creating postings and meeting safely with buyers
- Because Facebook doesnât handle the transaction, they donât take a fee
- As with all things Facebook, the actual quality is less important than the fact that so many of people use it. Marketplace has lots of users and that means lots of potential buyers

May 9, 2021 I dunno but after the recent update I CAN NO LONGER UPLOAD MULTIPLE PICTURES AT ONCE. WHEN I TRY TO CLICK MULTIPLE PHOTOS AT MY GALLERY, instead of #, the check will move from the 1st pic to the new pic I click. I tried doing it in browser and its fine, I can still post multiple. But in apps, it wont. The way to work around it to to create an album do you can uplaod multiples but i dont want to keep making albums everytime. Both fb apps in two phones did that now more -
Irritating App
Oct 10, 2017 The app has been driving me crazy for months now. If I stay on the Facebook page, it only blacks out once or twice per evening. If I want to read something (my cousin's newspaper article, for instance) posted by my friends, the app blacks out every time and if I want to continue on Facebook, I have to open the app all over again and hope I can find my place. I'm almost ready to delete the darn thing! Wondering if it's worth the frustration! I've written my problems to the staff through Facebook three times and have received no recommendations. Can the app be fixed? Well, it's about 2 ,months later and nothing has improved. The app still freezes and blacks out. If I try to move from a post to attached info it freezes. Moving down the page to more posts makes it freeze or it blacks out completely. Then I get to start all over opening the app yet again. This is really getting to be more trouble than it's worth. It would be nice if the it people would at least respond in some way. A lot of us are feeling ignored. Not good business practice! more -
May 8, 2021 Hey guys, really great app, but can you make a feature where it's easier to show the numbers of people who follows you, like it's so hard to see how many people follows you, so instead of going back and forth in the settings, could you guys make a feature where it enables the user to see many followers the user has in a simple click of a button. Thanks in advance guys more -
Needs interface enhancement
Jan 10, 2021 To start off, I haven’t been on Facebook in nearly two years now. I reloaded the app solely for marketplace while looking for a vehicle. I’m running the latest software & auto update apps on my iPhone 11 Pro. Amongst the more than often crashes I whiteness every couple minutes, the startup and loading speeds of this platform are ridiculously slow. Going back to the purpose of getting this app, when attempting to use the basic filters on here, they often don’t work under the vehicle section of marketplace. When I do get certain filters to work, they more than often lock out and I’m unable to remove them when I want to change to another filter. For instance, I started looking at used Tacoma’s and wranglers, I’ve had to delete the app and reload almost every time just to clear out my filter settings in the cars & trucks for sale page. For a company worth nearly $600 billion, you’d think they’d replace the interface which I noticed hasn’t seen hardly any changes w/ in the past couple years. more -
Keyboard support, less hostile video playback
Jun 9, 2020 Hi there! So I’m addicted to the FaceFeed as anyone else, and I’ve a couple of suggestions for the iOS/iPadOS app. Currently using FaceBook in the Safari browser is better for me because of keyboard support. It seems crazy to me that there isn’t at least support for scrolling through the feed with arrow keys on Bluetooth or otherwise connected keyboards. Commands for search and home and refresh, etcetera, would be nice too- but man, the scrolling thing kills me. Also, I doubt I’ll see a change here as the way videos are currently presented seems designed to keep people watching them, but it feels awfully user-hostile to have to figure out different swipe patterns and do it quickly to dismiss a video before another one plays. Also, the relegating of Airplay options to that sub-menu alongside Chromecast options basically broke proper Airplay support. It never seems to want to stream to my AppleTV properly now, always have to give up and go with the less than ideal screen mirroring system-wide option. Cheers. more -
This is more about a hacking group
Jun 16, 2020 I would really appreciate it if you could put hacking as one of the things your not allowed to do on Facebook because I reported these two groups who hack peoples groups and accounts for money and there was no hacking thing for me to report them for (it would be awesome if you could make it so we can give a personal report) so I reported them for doing sales that weren’t allowed and in the message back they just completely ignored the fact that the group was hacking, like what the heck?!?!? I mean no hate this is one of the best apps I own but those hacker groups might mess things up a bit one of the groups I’m in is doing some shutting down stuff as well as not letting new members join because of the hackers! It would be great if you could do something about it!! The group name is “black hat hackers” and actually when you look that up you find a few more hacking groups too please do something about it this really is not good thank you if you do! more -
Latest update hurts my heart
May 27, 2020 In the latest update, the app no longer has the “share” button when you try to share a post to a group. You must individually look up and share each group, which is cumbersome and takes far more steps/time. My child is a brand Rep, and it used to be so convenient to make our promotion post and share in 5-10 groups with a few quick taps. Now, I have to individually share the post to each individual group. I understand it is probably some kind of safety feature to prevent hackers and bots and bugs, but it has really made it more difficult for us. Also, the new layout on the computer (not the app, but the physical website) has me all sorts of lost and confused. I’m a pretty tech-y person, but when you move everything from its relative location, it makes it much more difficult of an interface to use. Love the new avatars though!!! They are super fun and cute!!! Also, the new and updates privacy settings on groups are lovely! more -
Nothing loads anymore
Aug 18, 2018 I’ve been a faithful Facebook user for years. It is my go to social media platform and I love it. However for the last couple months I’ve noticed it won’t load random things. Images, comments, and video will stop loading if I’ve been scrolling for a minute or two. Sometimes I’ll be just hopping on and comments won’t load for something. It doesn’t matter if I’m on WiFi or data. I’ve even gone as far as to uninstall it and reinstall it twice this week, which worked for that night and stopped the next day. I never used to have this problem until after I got the iPhone X. My husband just switched phones to the iPhone X like me (got mine on Mother’s Day) and now he experiences it too, and we have friends who say they noticed it as well on this phone but when they switched phones, it was all good. Is there possibly a compatibility flaw between Facebook and the new iPhone? I hate not being able to use it like I used to. Hopefully this can be fixed so we can keep using it. more

May 9, 2021 Today's update has killed my ability to switch between my personal profile and the one for the page I run. When I try to see my page it says it can't be accessed due to a technical problem. When I updated the app on both my tablet and phone the problem occurs on both devices. Today's update has one hell of a glitch that needs an immediate patch! more -
App is useless
Jul 9, 2020 Facebook had become basically unusable for months. Many users repeatedly post the same issues without any response or resolution from Facebook. I’m an IT professional it appears the app is incapable of keeping up with the volume, maybe server issues. The app freezes constantly and crashes. Isn’t working at all while on wireless have to turn off my wireless to have any hope of being able to review my notifications. Anytime I get a new notifications it throws me out of where I am and back to the beginning of my notifications. Then I have to start all over again paging through the hundreds of notifications I receive to try to find where I previously left off which is next to impossible due to the endless freezing and crashes. Notifications I previously reviewed continue to show unread making it impossible to figure out which ones I’ve reviewed. The app has gotten totally frustrating to use to the point it’s taking me several hours a day just to get through notifications, there aren’t enough hours in the day to deal with Facebook which is slowing becoming a full time job to deal with. It’s a good thing it’s free because no one would pay for software that doesn’t work and provides no customer service or issue resolution. They constantly make so called updates that break previously working functionality. The updates are unwanted by the users, what we want is a reliable app not a bunch of bells and whistles that do nothing to improve the user experience. more -
May 8, 2021 This app has become unusable because I can no longer use dark mode, turn off the sounds in app, and use my preferred browser. Facebook browser is clunky and slow. Skip this garbage app. But wait, you can't actually uninstall it, now I wish I could. Setting made to the status bar are not saved next time app is opened. Why mess with something that wasn't broken? more -
FACEBOOK DISREGARDING THEIR OWN POLICY
Mar 23, 2021 YES, it's as this comment says, my whole family and friends are torn up that Facebook has neglected their policy and only applies the policy for selected users. Now not only I, but my family and friends are trying to get to the bottom of this issue that Facebook does not uphold their policy for everyone equally, I have screen shots of the posts and ill keep most updated on my Instagram, (which they might not care too sense it's facebook) and on twitter. I have an understanding that Facebook is already having legal issues with the government but treating users unfairly and differently from other users is discriminating users beliefs and so forth. This is a ridiculous situation seeing that Facebook is supposed to be user friendly. It's not user friendly. In fact, it's the opposite. It allows hate speech as long as it's hate speech that Facebook is okay with, it allows defacing people and slandering their name. Honestly, how will Facebook fix my situation now since they aloud this to happen to an account that I use for personal and work use. Again, their policy states “not degrading or shaming other users” and yet they allow it to happen to my account after 2 times I reported it. I will be getting in contact with management and see what happens. But as of now, Facebook is going down hill fast and I highly do not recommend this prejudice platform. more -
May 8, 2021 Very terrible. Buggy and crashes a lot. Notifications are very delayed. I hate my ads. You could add option of what ads you want to see. I'm a man and I don't want to see ads on women skirts. I only use this app for the Facebook market as I sell things. But it is really buggy and is the worse. Please fix soon. more -
You’re not allowed to be yourself anymore
Aug 8, 2020 Facebook used to be a fun place to connect with old school friends and family..a place where I could freely express my unique self. You used to be able to post anything you wanted whether it was true or not, just because you felt like it and nobody really cared! Some things opened up great discussions! Now, everything you share or comment is scrutinized by behind-the-screen random, ghost people. These people have their own opinions and when you freely express yourself like before, your posts or comments will be taken down, blocked or hidden, and all of your audience will be notified that your opinion or posts just happens to be something they personally disagree with. I did a test and posted 2 polar opposite opinions on an issue just to see what they would do, both of them were false news. The fake news I posted about current and political events had 2 distinct viewpoints. The one the ghost person disagreed with, was covered up and labeled as false with a link to an article for my audience to click proving their viewpoint. The other one that was also fake news, fit their personal viewpoint and they never touched it. I personally disagreed with both things I posted but found out quickly what the viewpoint was of the ghost robots behind the screens reading everybody’s personal stuff. Facebook is NOT a good thing!! more -
May 8, 2021 Lately constant changes only cause problems. Updated automatically and made it worse! I USE TO enjoy fb and now I can't even post more than one photo. Even if I select multiple or try to add it takes away the original one!! Too many changes too often is not good! Changes are only beneficial when well thought out and worked on to improve or make easier. It seems like fb employees are just doing the most and nothing is thought out or with reason. Fix the glitches instead of new irrelevant changes more -
Why?
Dec 5, 2020 The link that used to take me directly to the page I administer now takes me to a feed of posts from all the pages I follow (which, by the way, does not load on my 7th generation iPad with the latest iOS), and I have to go through an additional link to get to MY page. Why make things more difficult instead of easier? It’s like you’re going backwards rather than forwards. Update: Thank you taking out the extra step to get to the page I administer. However, one of your recent updates has caused a different issue. Our church has been live-streaming worship services since the pandemic got so bad in March. We found that the way to get the best sound quality was to have a transmitter plugged into the output of the sound system & a receiver plugged into the charging port of the iPad we’ve been using for streaming. This worked great until shortly before Thanksgiving. We have discovered that the Facebook app now only allows the sound for live videos to come from the microphone of the device being used for the video. Ugh! There is no way (that we have discovered) to get the sound to channel through the receiver for the sound system instead of through the device’s microphone. This results in a lower sound quality for the video. more -
May 8, 2021 So since the recent update, you can't post up multiple images you can only post up one single photo! Then recently added a new friend and now they can't see anything expected what's global...whats that all about! I've added them as a friend so should see everything as I post up by only friends can see my post! Angry, they should change that people can't save your photos that you put up on your profile! Anyone in the world can be saving these photo's! Can Facebook please do something about this. more

New on Facebook
Jul 13, 2020 I haven’t been able to see anything about my account other than Facebook fake pages put on by hackers! Asking for me to open my account for me to sign in with email address password over and over. I don’t believe that it’s real please take them down. I’ve put my email and personal password for the? Whoever said that is what fb has you do?? I have had my identity stolen from someone I have turned in a lot of times has used it to get in my account! I sure I did things when I got back on Facebook my mistake please text me on what to do! My husband is going to ask me to close my account and I really enjoy see old friends have pictures I want but not all the trouble I keep getting. So Dear Facebook let me know if you have an answer for me to keep my account or close now it keeps asking me for a nickname I don’t have one so I’m sure you will never get this send more -
Censorship, Political Bias & Your 1A
Nov 16, 2020 Facebook USED to be a great place to see how friends were doing, keep up on events and an overall courtyard for hanging out and catching up. Not anymore! The amount of censorship and political bias is beyond extraordinary and unprecedented in American history. The fact Facebook decides what is fact or not is troubling and should disturb any class of American that enjoys their freedoms. Facebook executives crossed the line and is guilty in the suppressing factual news that has impacts to every American. By being complacent in the way they have they were also guilt in cover ups to those crimes it continues to suppress the news on. Your independent thoughts & opinions on Facebook ONLY stay or matter when they meet the thoughts send opinions of the social media outlet. In this case Facebook. Facebook does NOT honor your 1st amendment rights and that is a FACT. Moving on like millions of others. The platform simply fails the sniff test. more

Duplicate names and fake accounts
May 1, 2018 First of all this app is good.. but i dont know why i think that i still miss most of my friend’s post. And about duplicate fake accounts. I think Facebook needs to implement a system that avoids the use of Same names . Because personally i even found one of my photos being uploaded to someone’s timeline.. Even though that didn’t annoyed me.. But facebook should provide strong control over the user’s photo.. so that i wont be downloaded in other devices. Even though some of pic may be screenshot. Facebook should also implement a system like face identifying AI to identify the use of multiple photos of same user over different account. I mean to say to have new kinds of notification and alerts if some . Even if some people decide to make backup account their previously used mobile number to verify, the creation of account of same user allowing to upload the photo signifying its really the same guy... more

May 9, 2021 For some reasons, my fb app stopped loading new stories, disconnected from the internet even though other apps worked normally. I tried logging out and in again to no avail. The only possible solution to fix this was reinstalling the app. This created somewhat inconvenience. Kindly fix this issue please! P.S: I'm using Galaxy A50 running one ui 3.1 and android ver 11. more -
May 9, 2021 I dunno but after the recent update I CAN NO LONGER UPLOAD MULTIPLE PICTURES AT ONCE. WHEN I TRY TO CLICK MULTIPLE PHOTOS AT MY GALLERY, instead of #, the check will move from the 1st pic to the new pic I click. I tried doing it in browser and its fine, I can still post multiple. But in apps, it wont. The way to work around it to to create an album do you can uplaod multiples but i dont want to keep making albums everytime. Both fb apps in two phones did that now more -
Irritating App
Oct 10, 2017 The app has been driving me crazy for months now. If I stay on the Facebook page, it only blacks out once or twice per evening. If I want to read something (my cousin's newspaper article, for instance) posted by my friends, the app blacks out every time and if I want to continue on Facebook, I have to open the app all over again and hope I can find my place. I'm almost ready to delete the darn thing! Wondering if it's worth the frustration! I've written my problems to the staff through Facebook three times and have received no recommendations. Can the app be fixed? Well, it's about 2 ,months later and nothing has improved. The app still freezes and blacks out. If I try to move from a post to attached info it freezes. Moving down the page to more posts makes it freeze or it blacks out completely. Then I get to start all over opening the app yet again. This is really getting to be more trouble than it's worth. It would be nice if the it people would at least respond in some way. A lot of us are feeling ignored. Not good business practice! more -
May 8, 2021 Hey guys, really great app, but can you make a feature where it's easier to show the numbers of people who follows you, like it's so hard to see how many people follows you, so instead of going back and forth in the settings, could you guys make a feature where it enables the user to see many followers the user has in a simple click of a button. Thanks in advance guys more -
Needs interface enhancement
Jan 10, 2021 To start off, I haven’t been on Facebook in nearly two years now. I reloaded the app solely for marketplace while looking for a vehicle. I’m running the latest software & auto update apps on my iPhone 11 Pro. Amongst the more than often crashes I whiteness every couple minutes, the startup and loading speeds of this platform are ridiculously slow. Going back to the purpose of getting this app, when attempting to use the basic filters on here, they often don’t work under the vehicle section of marketplace. When I do get certain filters to work, they more than often lock out and I’m unable to remove them when I want to change to another filter. For instance, I started looking at used Tacoma’s and wranglers, I’ve had to delete the app and reload almost every time just to clear out my filter settings in the cars & trucks for sale page. For a company worth nearly $600 billion, you’d think they’d replace the interface which I noticed hasn’t seen hardly any changes w/ in the past couple years. more -
Keyboard support, less hostile video playback
Jun 9, 2020 Hi there! So I’m addicted to the FaceFeed as anyone else, and I’ve a couple of suggestions for the iOS/iPadOS app. Currently using FaceBook in the Safari browser is better for me because of keyboard support. It seems crazy to me that there isn’t at least support for scrolling through the feed with arrow keys on Bluetooth or otherwise connected keyboards. Commands for search and home and refresh, etcetera, would be nice too- but man, the scrolling thing kills me. Also, I doubt I’ll see a change here as the way videos are currently presented seems designed to keep people watching them, but it feels awfully user-hostile to have to figure out different swipe patterns and do it quickly to dismiss a video before another one plays. Also, the relegating of Airplay options to that sub-menu alongside Chromecast options basically broke proper Airplay support. It never seems to want to stream to my AppleTV properly now, always have to give up and go with the less than ideal screen mirroring system-wide option. Cheers. more -
Nothing loads anymore
Aug 18, 2018 I’ve been a faithful Facebook user for years. It is my go to social media platform and I love it. However for the last couple months I’ve noticed it won’t load random things. Images, comments, and video will stop loading if I’ve been scrolling for a minute or two. Sometimes I’ll be just hopping on and comments won’t load for something. It doesn’t matter if I’m on WiFi or data. I’ve even gone as far as to uninstall it and reinstall it twice this week, which worked for that night and stopped the next day. I never used to have this problem until after I got the iPhone X. My husband just switched phones to the iPhone X like me (got mine on Mother’s Day) and now he experiences it too, and we have friends who say they noticed it as well on this phone but when they switched phones, it was all good. Is there possibly a compatibility flaw between Facebook and the new iPhone? I hate not being able to use it like I used to. Hopefully this can be fixed so we can keep using it. more -
Decent social media but website is TERRIBLE
May 8, 2020 When it works, it’s really noce to be able to connect with people and see and share posts:) bit very disappointing when it doesn’t let you use it ever again and locks you out forever.:( Ok so I made an account on here and followed all and only the directions they gave me to set it up. When I finished, a random thing popped up and said that it saw “suspicious activity” from my account and made me send in a picture of myself to verify that it was really me. Then it said that my account would be disabled until they reviewed my submission. A month and a half later, it still says the same thing, so I tried making a new account. At first all was fine, but it did the same thing only five minutes after I completed the setup! I have no idea why it’s doing this. I did absolutely nothing wrong and the only reason I was making an account was so I could use Facebook marketplace. If anyone has any tips on how to fix this, please let me know! more

Why?
Dec 5, 2020 The link that used to take me directly to the page I administer now takes me to a feed of posts from all the pages I follow (which, by the way, does not load on my 7th generation iPad with the latest iOS), and I have to go through an additional link to get to MY page. Why make things more difficult instead of easier? It’s like you’re going backwards rather than forwards. Update: Thank you taking out the extra step to get to the page I administer. However, one of your recent updates has caused a different issue. Our church has been live-streaming worship services since the pandemic got so bad in March. We found that the way to get the best sound quality was to have a transmitter plugged into the output of the sound system & a receiver plugged into the charging port of the iPad we’ve been using for streaming. This worked great until shortly before Thanksgiving. We have discovered that the Facebook app now only allows the sound for live videos to come from the microphone of the device being used for the video. Ugh! There is no way (that we have discovered) to get the sound to channel through the receiver for the sound system instead of through the device’s microphone. This results in a lower sound quality for the video. more -
May 9, 2021 most recent updates logged me out of the app, but then i couldn't get it to log back in for over a week! it kept loading indefinitely and crashing my whole phone... fixed it, but it took changing my password, clearing cache, and reinstalling! also annoying that it keeps pushing functions that i just dont use, like stories and marketplace. but the lite app is TOO bare for normal feed scrolling more -
Going downhill fast...but hoping it gets better:)
Jan 24, 2021 I’m great full to Facebook for ability to keep in touch with friends and understand they maintain a free platform. The continual and complex privacy features seem to be largely a CYA action to cover up FB own intrusion to privacy while managing to restrict freedom of speech at same time🤥 (as I currently reload one account to gain access to manage photos feature). I’ve never seen so many scam and MLM marketing advertisements as the ones forced into my newsfeed, sponsored marketplace ads (even if I choose local PU only!) ...the sheer number of obvious fake FB account friend requests (seriously, NO photos, NO friends🤪😜…and constantly ignoring my preference Not to have friend requests or suggestions from these accounts!). When scam, for profit obscure “fundraisers” are called out in comments...FB allows the companies to moderate and delete the comments...admittedly it’s a tough issue to vet advertisers- so why not let customers post feedback in comments...or have a link to public records of alleged performance of “for profit” fundraising companies hiding behind legitimate non-profits? Sorry to rant, could go on...but I do have hope for the future...and can’t wait for more competitive platforms to develop! more -
May 8, 2021 I don't know what Facebook is doing over there but the latest version of fb is all weird. It tells me I have notifications and when I check i have to keep signing in and out and restarting my phone! And with the new messenger update it is the same thing. Should've kept it the way it was smh more -
May 9, 2021 Does not work well on tablet in landscape mode. Some of the pages can't be seen well without opening it up then you can read all of it. Liked version 82.0.0.23.70 on my other tablet. It worked in landscape mode better. -
Shutting down
Oct 3, 2017 I don't know why but lately Facebook app has been shutting down and going to my main screen while I'm reading something😡very annoying!!! Fix this bug please! It also refreshes on its own. That's really annoying too when you are going through comments and then back out wanting to continue where you were before going to the comments and it decides on its own "nope you were done scrolling" 🙄 Nothing has been fixed. It still does all of the above even tho there's been tons of updates. Seriously fix this issue it's annoying! Stars went down bc it still hasn't been fixed STILL REFRESHES ON ITS OWN! When will this be fixed??? In the middle of reading something in Facebook and go to my internet for a second and then back to Facebook and it decides I was done and refreshes and sends me back to the top! Very annoying and j lose posts I was in the middle of reading. Why won’t you fix this issue. Many people have the same issue yet you don’t fix it!! Stars went down yet again bc it’s not fixed. One 1 star to go and honestly if I could give it a 0 star I would! Fix the freaking problem already!!! more -
They have taken the freedom away!
Jun 15, 2020 So much has changed about fb when I first downloaded the app I absolutely loved how you can stay connected with family and friends but somehow the very core of that has gone missing. Now you have to pay to be seen ! On both Instagram and fb !! I see the same 7 ppl on my timeline but some how I have 5000 active friends. I can post daily and won’t be seen how can a small business even be seen without the burden of coming out of pocket just to still not be seen unless you come out of pocket daily! As an African American I definitely feel RED LINE when using this app ! And I definitely don’t feel like it’s equal opportunity on all the major social media especially this one . When we try to “ pull ourselves up by the boot straps “ we are constantly systematically STOPPED speaking from my own experience! and I’m rarely one to speak on things like this but however it did prompt me to leave a review. Hopefully things can change for the better. To think an app that was supposed to connect us with family and friends are doing everything in their power to stop us from connecting more -
No notifications about my posts!
Nov 12, 2018 For the last 2 months, the notification settings in the app are a complete mess. The app will have the red number, but one of them are about my own posts. Any reactions or comments to MY posts don’t load in the list of notifications, so I have no idea about comments or reactions unless I actually go to the post itself. All I see are notifications about my friends’ posts. Further, while the news feed works fine, the list of notifications is limited to EXACTLY 20 notifications. When I scroll to the bottom, the page just jumps and doesn’t refresh to show any more than exactly 20. Maybe once a week I will scroll and be surprised to be able to scroll past 20, but it’s not because of anything I did or didn’t do. AND once I scroll back to the top of the list and scroll back down, I’m limited to 20 again. AND notifications for my posts still aren’t in the list. I have a brand new iPhone 6s Plus (3 months), so if Facebook doesn’t fix it soon, I am going to be convinced that the problems are a way to push people to upgrade their phones to the newest versions. more -
Little details make a big difference
Feb 8, 2020 Here recently videos have started displaying this keep watching button right in the middle of the video. If I’m just scrolling through my newsfeed and want to watch a video in it’s entirety then I should be able to do that!! Not only that but then I also have to deal with the ads in the video too! It’s frustrating and makes the app not very enjoyable to use! Also, the back/forward arrows on a webpage need to be put back where they were at the bottom of the page. It’s too easy now to hit the X button to close a webpage when all I really wanted to do was go back a page. Very frustrating when you’ve been looking at something for a long time only for it to close and then the newsfeed refreshes and you’ve lost the link you were looking at originally. None of the other apps (Pinterest, Instagram) do this. Their back/forward buttons are at the bottom of the screen, away from the “X” button so you don’t risk closing your page. It’s little thing like this that make or break an app. And right now Facebook, you’re on the verge of falling apart. more -
Seriously?
Nov 30, 2019 Okay so well I love the app. I get to talk to my family and join groups specifically the ones about animals and anime’s I like/have. But there’s just one thing that makes me mad. You guys took away my market place, I’ve contacted help and support so many times about it. I’ve gone to that stupid webpage that tells you steps and none of that stuff is even on my page like to request a review. I did nothing wrong. I sold antique dolls my mom got when she was younger, I sold a model helicopter and a skateboard. That’s it. That’s all I was selling. And I was completely transparent in telling people the damages they had and pricing them reasonably. So I know I didn’t break any of your rules. I saw that it could be cause I was inactive. Sense I have become a lot more active. I’m on everyday, I update my profile picture all the time, I joined groups and I’m always talking in those. I even like and comment of some of my friends and families post so I know that being inactive isn’t the problem anymore. I also know that marketplace is in fact active where I live cause I’m in Texas! ALSO the entire icon is gone and hasn’t returned. more

Terrible customer service
Jan 14, 2021 Got a 7 day suspension for posting a pic of me I have posted numerous times and never had an issue. Said it was a 7 day suspension but it shows 30 days. No ability to send my reason why I disagree and the other problems. continuously receive requests from obviously fake profiles from "women" with large breasts in skimpy outfits. All their other friends are from Ghana or Nigeria so obviously Russian trolls. I report and get replies that FB sees no issue. No way to actually send real message more -
May 9, 2021 Today's update has killed my ability to switch between my personal profile and the one for the page I run. When I try to see my page it says it can't be accessed due to a technical problem. When I updated the app on both my tablet and phone the problem occurs on both devices. Today's update has one hell of a glitch that needs an immediate patch! more -
App is useless
Jul 9, 2020 Facebook had become basically unusable for months. Many users repeatedly post the same issues without any response or resolution from Facebook. I’m an IT professional it appears the app is incapable of keeping up with the volume, maybe server issues. The app freezes constantly and crashes. Isn’t working at all while on wireless have to turn off my wireless to have any hope of being able to review my notifications. Anytime I get a new notifications it throws me out of where I am and back to the beginning of my notifications. Then I have to start all over again paging through the hundreds of notifications I receive to try to find where I previously left off which is next to impossible due to the endless freezing and crashes. Notifications I previously reviewed continue to show unread making it impossible to figure out which ones I’ve reviewed. The app has gotten totally frustrating to use to the point it’s taking me several hours a day just to get through notifications, there aren’t enough hours in the day to deal with Facebook which is slowing becoming a full time job to deal with. It’s a good thing it’s free because no one would pay for software that doesn’t work and provides no customer service or issue resolution. They constantly make so called updates that break previously working functionality. The updates are unwanted by the users, what we want is a reliable app not a bunch of bells and whistles that do nothing to improve the user experience. more -
May 8, 2021 This app has become unusable because I can no longer use dark mode, turn off the sounds in app, and use my preferred browser. Facebook browser is clunky and slow. Skip this garbage app. But wait, you can't actually uninstall it, now I wish I could. Setting made to the status bar are not saved next time app is opened. Why mess with something that wasn't broken? more -
FACEBOOK DISREGARDING THEIR OWN POLICY
Mar 23, 2021 YES, it's as this comment says, my whole family and friends are torn up that Facebook has neglected their policy and only applies the policy for selected users. Now not only I, but my family and friends are trying to get to the bottom of this issue that Facebook does not uphold their policy for everyone equally, I have screen shots of the posts and ill keep most updated on my Instagram, (which they might not care too sense it's facebook) and on twitter. I have an understanding that Facebook is already having legal issues with the government but treating users unfairly and differently from other users is discriminating users beliefs and so forth. This is a ridiculous situation seeing that Facebook is supposed to be user friendly. It's not user friendly. In fact, it's the opposite. It allows hate speech as long as it's hate speech that Facebook is okay with, it allows defacing people and slandering their name. Honestly, how will Facebook fix my situation now since they aloud this to happen to an account that I use for personal and work use. Again, their policy states “not degrading or shaming other users” and yet they allow it to happen to my account after 2 times I reported it. I will be getting in contact with management and see what happens. But as of now, Facebook is going down hill fast and I highly do not recommend this prejudice platform. more -
May 8, 2021 Very terrible. Buggy and crashes a lot. Notifications are very delayed. I hate my ads. You could add option of what ads you want to see. I'm a man and I don't want to see ads on women skirts. I only use this app for the Facebook market as I sell things. But it is really buggy and is the worse. Please fix soon. more -
You’re not allowed to be yourself anymore
Aug 8, 2020 Facebook used to be a fun place to connect with old school friends and family..a place where I could freely express my unique self. You used to be able to post anything you wanted whether it was true or not, just because you felt like it and nobody really cared! Some things opened up great discussions! Now, everything you share or comment is scrutinized by behind-the-screen random, ghost people. These people have their own opinions and when you freely express yourself like before, your posts or comments will be taken down, blocked or hidden, and all of your audience will be notified that your opinion or posts just happens to be something they personally disagree with. I did a test and posted 2 polar opposite opinions on an issue just to see what they would do, both of them were false news. The fake news I posted about current and political events had 2 distinct viewpoints. The one the ghost person disagreed with, was covered up and labeled as false with a link to an article for my audience to click proving their viewpoint. The other one that was also fake news, fit their personal viewpoint and they never touched it. I personally disagreed with both things I posted but found out quickly what the viewpoint was of the ghost robots behind the screens reading everybody’s personal stuff. Facebook is NOT a good thing!! more -
May 8, 2021 Lately constant changes only cause problems. Updated automatically and made it worse! I USE TO enjoy fb and now I can't even post more than one photo. Even if I select multiple or try to add it takes away the original one!! Too many changes too often is not good! Changes are only beneficial when well thought out and worked on to improve or make easier. It seems like fb employees are just doing the most and nothing is thought out or with reason. Fix the glitches instead of new irrelevant changes more -
May 8, 2021 So since the recent update, you can't post up multiple images you can only post up one single photo! Then recently added a new friend and now they can't see anything expected what's global...whats that all about! I've added them as a friend so should see everything as I post up by only friends can see my post! Angry, they should change that people can't save your photos that you put up on your profile! Anyone in the world can be saving these photo's! Can Facebook please do something about this. more -
Twitter here I Come
Jul 20, 2020 I hate Facebook. If I could give Zero stars I would. It’s like school popularity all over again for adults. Only reason I have to have it is cuz I sign into apps with it and I’m so far committed to these apps it would be a huge hassle to start a different account. I’ve been cyber bullied/harassed/threatened countless times on here but as soon as I respond (fire with Fire), I’m always getting banned/restricted. It’s unreal. Like I seriously hate Facebook and everything it stands for at this point. I can’t wait until a different Social Media provider takes down Facebook. Instagram over Facebook all day any day. Bring back MySpace but FB can get bent for all I care. Edit: it’s funny I see a lot of the same complaints. Something tells me FB won’t be around for 2030. Ding dong the witch is dead. Facebook doesn’t realize it yet, probably cuz they are full of themselves, but y’all on the downhill swing of things. Enjoy your last run. 1 star reviews are piling up and y’all don’t care. Bullies. But I think it’s time I finally take the plunge and create a Twitter as my primary and use that for my app accounts. Facebook, you had your chances and your nothing but a bully yourself that allows bullies to thrive while restricting the people who simply defend themselves from these bullies, hence, your ALSO A BULLY. more
What’s Groovy
Facebook is an average social media app that is nice for communicating with friends and family for free (via Messenger). But, with that being said, it is time for Facebook to release a major design update for the mobile app. Often, when I am checking the reactions to my posts on Facebook, the reactions never load, are miscounted, or not updated. This is example number one of why Facebook needs to seriously upgrade. One thing that a lot of Facebook mobile app users have been waiting for is a dark mode for the app! It has been released across multiple platforms, including instagram, which is owned by Facebook. They released a dark mode for desktop users & the Messenger app, and it is beyond time for the mobile users to have the option for dark mode on the Facebook App. One last example of something that Facebook needs to update is it’s variety. Messenger only having a few color-themed backgrounds to choose, for example. Other than a design update, the app is very useful for communication, businesses, memes, inspiration, etc. It is also a good way to pass the time.

What’s Subpar
App is ugly, flooded with useless distractions that drag load times to a crawl, and often times doesn't perform expected functions like uploads or a basic search. The features this app has aren't really that appealing anyway. I can't get rid of it, but it's certainly not something I expect to use very often. Samsung should consider not including this bloatware, even if the owner is filthy rich. As for now, I'd rather spend my time on Discord.
