Have used Friendly Plus for several years in Android and iOS. Lately, past month Friendly has ceased to provide mitigated smooth use of Facebook. Any attempts to contact developer go unanswered. Have deleted Friendly and stopped recommending it to others. Facebook continues to abuse privacy. Legislators need competent and skillful assistants to teach them about the tools, and illegal means used by Meta. Meta cannot be trusted with privacy. They should be governmentally controlled.

Been using it for FB to block ads and sort posts by date, but lately it only shows on or two posts then breaks. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling along with clearing cache, but the moment i set it back to filter by date it breaks

I have a similar problem that someone else reported in the last few months. The buttons on the botton of the FB page have disappeared, including the messages, notifications, etc. I can't tell if there is a message received nor can I send one. I have deleted the app several times and I have used both the Friendly and Friendly Plus. I have cleared the cache. The bottom task bar reappears and then goes again. I note that the method of receiving messages is now different (when it has worked). The photo icons are now arranged along the left had side of the screen in a horizontal fashion. I have messenger and FB also on my phone (iphone 14 Pro Max). They have worked together for years prior to this problem.

Hi, the past week or two the Android app has been very glitchy playing Facebook videos - the first few seconds are ok, then it starts skipping and gets stuck on a ~1 second loop. Tried updating the app, still has the problem.

“This browser is not supported “ “Use Facebook app” Do not want to use FB app directly. Then it says “tap to use a supported browser.” - Chrome or Safari. When tapping on Facebook, Chrome or Safari, as it requests, it directs to ITunes Store and gives the message “the item you’ve requested is not currently available in the US store.” plz fix soon

I have had Friendly app for a long time but suddenly it will not come up. I prefer this app as opposed to going directly to Facebook.
