Friendly Social Browser App Reviews

Accessing my 2nd Facebook profile has never been easier! Excellent

Best app for Twitter & FB combined. Uses less than half the MB space as other apps leaving me more room on my phone for other apps

I have the paid version of this but apparently the Apple Store wont let me write a review for some reason. Anyway avoid this app like the plague (certainly dont pay for it) because it is full of bugs and as far as I can tell the developers have stopped developing it (no updates for months). Facebook is continually updating its code and so any app which runs off of Facebooks API should ALWAYS be updated regularly to keep pace with the changes. The last update for this app was MONTHS ago and consequently it doesnt work so well with Facebook any more. An example is the "top stories/most recent" ordering of the newsfeed - everyone hates how Facebook keeps changing their setting to stop Stories and this is one of the reasons I bought Friendly, which claimed to keep your setting locked in with Facebook unable to change it. Since the last update months ago, Facebook have obviously changed their code and so this setting lock no longer works on Friendly. I have to keep changing it back. So that, along with the frequent crashing of the app and the fact that copy/pasting of text is horribly broken in Friendly, means that its a pain to use and ultimately pointless over the official app. The ONLY reason to use Friendly now is if you want to switch quickly between accounts - that part works. Everything else is a frustrating mess with absolutely no updates in sight and no response or support from the developers who are, funnily enough, quite happy to keep taking peoples money for the app.

I deleted my facebook app because it forces me to use a unnecessary facebook messenger that doesnt let me log off from it I recommend this app I hope they keep improving it

It does take a lot less space then having 2 separate apps, but it feels like Im almost using Facebook on a slide phone. Just, meh... Like I cant see whos one chat, I cant turn chat off/ on, and it feels weird at times, I dont know how else to explain it. When someone replies to my comments, it wont show me what they said.

Its way too buggy and not smooth at all.

Im loving this app so far! Could do with out all the spam/advertising-- but I have the free version right now -- Thinking on buying the app

I like the app but it quits and I have to restart and it brings me to the beginning of my newsfeed. If this continues, Ill have to go back to the original fb app. Also, when it notifies me that someone has liked or responded to a comment Ive made on another page, it just takes me to the comments section of that post, not to my specific comment - a big problem.

It is fast, smooth, easy to use and unlike the facebook app, functional. Battery usage is much better. Delete facebook and messenger and use friendly now!

Pros: Option to set Most Recent as default feed (#1 reason I use it over the official Facebook app) UI color options Messenger included in same app Blocks ads Cons: Often closes or crashes when leaving app even just for a few seconds (especially annoying if you were far down your feed or following an outside link an article) Notifications are often delayed and/or inconsistent Turning off notifications for a Group post does not work (but this could be a Facebook issue and not a Friendly one?) Photo and video uploading is extremely buggy and unreliable Often freezes and wont load anything, with no hint as to what the error is Ive been using Friendly for a year or two now, but Im starting to consider trying the official app again until Friendly improves. Manually changing over to Most Recent every time I open the official app seems like less of a hassle than dealing with all the myriad quirks of Friendly.

Notif is not working but background app refresh is ON :(

Im happy. Its working well and not draining my battery like the Facebook app. My favorite feature is the most recent order that is displayed. Smart.

Love when I am reading an article, and it refresh itself for no reason. Press like button wont like but go another page instead.

This app is fabulous! It makes it so much easier to toggle between accounts. The only thing that would make it 5 stars is to be able to add all social media apps.

Ads prevent posts and "likes" from updating straight away, which is very annoying

I just can say that Friendly solve my situation about manage the differents accounts.

Very useful. I enjoy how it integrates Facebook with Instagram.
