Just updated the Facebook app to 3.2, and thought it would fix the extra blank favorite page my app keeps showing but it didn't. I have 3 pages when I should only have 2 showing. Anyone else having this issue?

I used to get this problem, it was only a small prob but still very annoying. It disappeared a while ago for me but I dont know how so cant help you there. Have you tried reinstalling?
 
for some reason i can't log in to facebook with the new app. i'll have to check it out on my other non-jailbroken iphone.
 
got the new version - and I see places - but doesn't work yet here in NYC - at least, not on my phone
 
I live near Chicago and it says places isn't available in my area yet. Weird that they would tell the world about this yesterday, and then launch the app when it doesn't work at all.

Hopefully they get it fixed soon.
 
If it's not available in NYC and Chicago, it must not be available anywhere. It told me it's not available in Ohio either, but I would expect it to work in NYC before Ohio.

Also can't believe this is not an iPad and iPhone app. What the heck is facebook waiting for on the iPad? I hate the website.

You hate the website? That's a little extreme.

Why do you want a Facebook app for iPad? The only thing I could possibly think you would need it for would be for uploading pictures. Beyond that, just going to the website in Safari is more than sufficient.

Um, did I stutter? The app doesn't throw all the adds and crap at me. It's cleaner.

The popup windows don't work correctly in Safari. It's awkward to block items in your News Feed. It's tough to tap the notifications and message icons. There are enough reasons for there to be an iPad app.

There's hardly any ad's on Facebook.com.

But, in saying that, sometimes I have to use Facebook.com on my iPhone because simple things like checking Event wall post comments (i.e. a comment on a post by someone on the wall) don't show up. There's other things missing too.

But then the full site doesn't work correctly on the iPhone - trying to navigate is a nightmare, as it won't register taps.
 
i just upgraded too, but everything i try to load, wall post, news feed all come as error. whats wrong? but i do see the new places icon but still the error comes when clicked.

Same here

It shows my picture on my wall and then Unable to load your wall. Live feed shows nothing.

Also jailbroken here
 
I updated mine this am, and places does not work in Houston.

I am still having an issue with facebook not loading new post when I open it. I have to manually tell it to download new post. This started a while ago, back even with my old 3Gs
 
No longer tap to update the main page. Just pull down and release. Seems like the shake to refresh option is gone.
 
doesn't work in sacramento, ca yet. I'm guessing since it doesn't work in NYC or Chicago that it doesn't work anywhere yet?

I wish they would add the ability to like comments in the app, not an important feature, but it would be nice.

I didn't check in 3.2, but shake to reload is present in 3.2.1, do you have it disabled in your Facebook settings?

Still doesn't have "poke" support.. UGH
When viewing a friends profile, the button in the upper right corner will bring up a list of actions, poke included.
 
After installing the update, I also couldn't load new posts or photos, and now after a reinstall I can't even log in.

I'm JB, so I also tried disabling biteSMS in sbsettings and had no luck.

On the plus side, I've never used the FB mobile site before and I'm finding it performs as well as the app ever did. Also as previously mentioned it shows you more updates than the app did. I'll stick with mobile site saved to the springboard for now.
 
I have some questions about this before I start using it.

If I check in at "home" is this going to create a check in that random people in the neighborhood are going to see when they are searching for checkin locations near them?

I get that only my friends will see where and when I check in, but if I create a check in for home, is Facebook going to see that as a new public location for unrelated Facebook users to check in?
