Hi All,

Well as they fix one thing FB seem to have created another issue. Firstly for some unknown reason the Group tab has been renamed watch. No idea why. Second and the issue before going into the app VO may say Facebook 3 notifications. However, now, when you go into the app you don't know which tab the notifications are on. I.E instead of saying notifications 3 on the tab it just says the tab name. Anyone else seeing this?

I can't say I've noticed this. THe latest version was released three days ago according to what I'm looking at on the app store, at least here in the US. Definitely haven't seen that though. Everything seems to be working well on my end.

I have seen the notification issue intermittently but there doesn’t seem to be a pattern. The badge is not always read out. If I find a pattern I will mention it here.
On another issue I am still having difficulty navigating pages. This has been the case for awhile now.

For me the watch tab is just all videos.
They may be related to groups, but not same thing.
Groups is under facebook menu, then show all shortcuts.

Ok all, after shutting down FB the groups tab is back named groups not watch. Indeed, watch has gone completely. Still no badge notification though. Groups used to be under Facebook Menu but in the UK at least for sometime it has had it's own tab. I've never come across the watch video stuff before so no idea how that suddenly appeared as a tab that wasn't right. I had just updated today to I think V228.

I don't have any issues on my end
