As of today (6/22) Facebook app does not work. It will crash immediately on launching or freeze and then crash. This just started today on my iPhone 6 and iPad mini 4. Anyone else having issues. I have been on beta since WWDC. I have tried force restart and deleting and reinstalling app. No luck.

My girlfriend just informed me she is having the issue as well. iPhone 6s Plus.

Just used the Facebook app roughly 30 minutes ago. No issues here (aside from it has always randomly crashed while in use in iOS 10)

Try rebooting your device (Power + Home buttons until the Apple logo appears)

Facebook app crash when trying to attach photos in posts is fixed. I don't see app crashing when posting posts containing pictures.

its known to be flaky on iOS 10. for me, it works for the most part but every now and then will force close or freeze. its very intermittent.

Happens a lot with Facebook as well as Google apps. Sometimes even pressing the home button from one of them causes a soft crash back to clock screen and pin pad.

Yep, same here. I was wondering if maybe uninstalling it and reinstalling the app might work, has anybody tried that yet?

Yep...luckily, Facebook updates their app every 2 weeks so hopefully they will release an update tomorrow.

That is if it can be fixed using iOS 9 code. If the fix requires something specific to iOS 10, it can't be released to the App Store until iOS 10 is released. However I'm sure either beta 2 (or others) or something in a Facebook app update will fix it. It's probably not something that can't be resolved asap. Just throwing it out there that it is possible a true fix can't happen until release, if it is on Facebook to fix and also requires iOS 10 specific code.

It actually just randomly started working for me again for about the last 20 minutes. Weird!

Yep. Facebook was working fine and about 2 hours ago started crashing all the time (no update installed today). Can't have it open more than 10 seconds now. Very weird.
