The last update of fb beta lost the online friends button!!

they've a separate app (Messenger) for that just like it's on the iOS app.

The integration of messenger in fb app on IOS and android is much better..There we can see all the people online and when we click any particular chat it opens directly the chat on the messenger not like on WP which takes so much time to open the app..Everything sucks on WP

I wiped my icon today. I'm on 8.1 dev. I can't get fb to sync information with my contacts. I've tried both apps. How do I fix this

Does anyone know why my Facebook calendar has multiple birthday entries for the same person? Some people have one, some have two and even some have three! Not sure if it's somehow them that have managed to add multiple entries, or it the Facebook app. I'm running the Beta version, buy I'm sure it was there in the official version. Just me?

Mine finally synced but they are blurry too.... I'm going to give it some time to see if they clear up

Mine wasn't opening; I ended up just deleting it and installing it again. Works fine now.

The beta worked for me but I was missing contacts with the regular FB app (specifiy my wife wouldn't sync. Lol). I tried the beta at the same time and had them both sync. Then deleted the regular and kept the beta. All good now. Pics not blurry and I have all contacts.

How I understand you. I just don't know why the app for windows 8.1 is made by Facebook inc. and the one for wp is made by Microsoft? Why? The app for windows 8.1 is great, why don't they do the same on wp?

I noticed that it now shows the birthday starting at a particular time and ending at a particular time. This results in the birthday going over 2 days in some cases. The multiple entries might be because it is showing the hotmail/outlook calendar birthday entry and the facebook birthday entry in the calendar.

We all have the same question buddy

Hey guys in Fb beta clicking on the search icon didnt put the cursor on the search bar, I had to manually click on there before writing but from yesterday I noticed on clicking the search icon directly puts the cursor on there and you can just start searching like the android version...They should also add the recent visited name on there, that should be useful for us..

I hope that this has been solved but is there anyway to get rid of multiple birthday entries from the phone's calendar?

All of them are from different calendars, so just uncheck the one you don't want to see.

So I'm back on my 1520 to give a test drive @ Cyan update and men, I forgot how 'AWFUL' the Facebook app is in Windows Phone. I just can conceive how Microsoft is able to create so a sub-par product. The mobile version (m.facebook.com) is 10 times better that this crappy app. For example it will not show any 'likes' type of post like when you have a friend and he/she likes something (a video, photo, etc), you know for example 'Your Friend Liked this Post'. That will not show and I dare anybody on this Forum to provide proof that they see that kind of post using the "Official" facebook app.

Too much rage. Why don't you use the mobile facebook site then?

Why should he use?? He bought a smartphone not a dumb phone..He should get all the facilities a standard smartphone provides including top notch app experience..So instead telling him what to do,tell Microsoft to improve the experience so that no user can complain..

 

[eortizr]

Another Beta update and still unable to see 'likes' from my friends... Why can Microsoft can just handle this app to Facebook...

 

[teckris]
