Facebook’s lack of feature updates for their apps is PATHETIC.

Posted: 25 Sep 2019 02:52 PM PDT

Their apps are some of the most used in the world, yet they tend to add support for new iOS features extremely late, simply due to the fact that people use their apps regardless.

Facebook: No dark mode support, battery hog, bugs in the in app video player.

WhatsApp and Whatsapp Business: No dark mode support, no WatchOS app, no IPadOS app, no multi device login support. Telegram is leagues better, unfortunately no one uses it in my country.

Instagram: No dark mode support (seems to be in beta right now) no iPadOS support (heavily requested)

Facebook Pages Manager: Perhaps the worst offender, the app is slow, riddled with bugs (at one point rotation didn't work on my iPad Pro 10.5 for over 2 months, thus no keyboard support)

Messenger seems to be handled by an entirely different team when compared to its siblings (then again maybe it is)

EDIT

A lot of people have suggested to delete the app and simply use the web version or to stop using Facebook altogether. I simply can't, I live in a third world country were Facebook and WhatsApp are the two most used social media platforms and instant messaging services respectively. I run my business through Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, my hands are fucking tied behind my back.
