iOS and iPadOS

I recently downloaded the Facebook app from the App Store and finding my way around. As a Facebook newbie, can someone tell me how to play videos that are sent to me? I like to listen to them, even though I cannot see them. Also, when I interact with a post and get to the next page where voiceover says "Choose an action," I can use the like, share, and comment buttons. When I press the more button, I can hear the sound of the screen changing, but VO is silent. Running and tapping my finger all over the screen does nothing but beep and click. What am I doing wrong?

Hello all
Does anyone here experience this issue?
When I sometimes swipe through my FaceBook posts without opening any of them, VoiceOver suddenly says: "Screen kertain off. Screen Kertain on." When I swipe continiously right, I find myself at the beginning of the page and can not go further. Closeing down FaceBook in the App Switcher does not sort the issue.

Hey. Does anyone have problems livestreaming on Facebook? For example, first I click on the "Live," button. Second, I optionally add a description. Next, I have to make sure that the camera is facing towards me. The problem is that I have trouble switching cameras. It keeps saying, "Rear camera active," no matter how many times I press it. I wrote to support about it and they didn't respond with a personal reply. I am just wondering if anyone else has the same issue.

Hello

I've noticed that the location tags in FB posts that is when you move to the "Choose a place" button, there was your nearest location near by EG for me it was Auckland City, no longer shows even after resetting my phone.

1. Launch FB app and go to Status.
2. Move to the "Choose a Place" button. For me no location is shown.

Anyone else having the same issue? I find location tags useful.

The Facebook Messenger bigins to be in accessible with Voiceover, for example when I swipe to delete a conversation nothing seems to happen. Is it any other app available wich works with Messenger I can use instead?

I am not sure where to put this, so admins feel free to move it to any other forum.
Facebook Messenger is getting messy to navigate. Also the app is really a pain to use, when I type a message and send it all other messages that could be months ago are read by VoiceOver.
Now I am not sure if this is a VoiceOver issue or Facebook issue.
Thanks all for any advice on this.

This is my first time posting so hopefully I am following the right steps and doing everything correctly.

Everytime I try and send a voice message with facebook messenger it does not send. I have never had a problem doing this until recently. I have tried just about everything like updating to the latest ios which I regret, I have even did a full reset of my phone and started fresh without retrieving any content from I cloud.

Hi everyone hope you're doing well and staying safe. I have an iPhone SE three running iOS 17 and the latest version of Facebook messenger. I'm having a strange issue and I'm wondering if you can help. Basically the delivery of messages to people who are currently active and online is inconsistent sometimes messages deliver and sometimes they appear as sent and not delivered. these people have not blocked me and they do not have our conversations muted .. Does anybody know what the problem could be, and how to resolve it please?

Hello all,
Earlier today I was using facebook messenger just fine and now all of the sudden every time I open it it crashes. I have reset my phone using the power button while holding the volume down button and it still crashes every time I try and open it. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled it. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can try?

Regards,
Greg Wocher

Hey guys
Is it just me, or did the facebook team remove the messenger ding sound? If they removed it, I hope they bring it back in a future update. It's just confusing to have all my app notifications sound the same now. It was nice to hear that ding sound, especially if I was doing something else, at least I knew what it was. Hope you all are well!

I keep hearing that there is a "m.facebook". Is this correct? If so what is the name in the app store? My wife wants something easier to use than the "facebook social lite".

Hi, Ever since I installed one of the Ios 12 betas (I'm not sure which one but it was the one that introduced the notifications not being read on the lock screen bug), my fb notifications aren't being read on the lock screen, though notifications from other apps are read just fine. I'm now running ios 12.1.3 (another beta). I have my facebook set to allow notifications on the lock screen, and I even tried setting up a passcode and touch id. No luck. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Facebook.

Can anyone tell me how to edit who i am receiving notifications from via the Facebook app? I get notifications for things I don't want and cannot figure out how to turn them off. For example, I have a friend who updates their profile picture at least once a day and I don't really need to know everytime that happens. I am trying to figure out where my preferred Notifications setting is. If anyone can assist, that would be fabulous!

I have been using iOS 7 on my iPhone 5 for about a week. Since the first time I used facebook on iOS 7, I couldn't read the content in the notification tab (I'm using the latest version of facebook 6.5). I thought that it's a bug from facebook app, but actually not all of iOS 7 users experiencing this problem. 2 of my friends who use iPhone 4S can read the content in the notification tab, but my another friends who also using iPhone 4S have the same problem with me. So, could you tell me what is the causes? And how to fix it?

Hello. I want to do a live streaming. I am thinking of Facebook or Youtube. If I do it on Facebook, is there a way to save the video? I have more people on Facebook. My sighted staff will do the recording so I am not doing it.

Recently I haven't been getting any description of photos on my timeline. I was when this feature was first announced. Has anyone else had this happen? I am using an Iphone 5 running latest version of IOS and have recently updated the facebook app. Thank you.

I cannot locate items posted by friends in the newsfeed to like or to comment on when using VoiceOver. I have an iPhone 5 running the latest 6.1 software. Sighted folks see links above friends' names, but the rotor does not move to links. Tapping on friends' names or words in the post such as "CNN" does not bring me to the apprise reference either. What do I need to do?
