No. We are not at all happy with the Facebook app for Android As we all know it drains the battery like itself, it takes up too much space on the RAM and produces, on some devices, tremendous lag. Although it is true that Facebook itself launched a reduced version of its app for less powerful or low-end devices, it is no less true that all Android users should opt for an app that works with all its features without compromising the operation of their mobile.While this is happening, Facebook is teasing new settings for its Android app, some quite late and some quite attractive.
Upload videos in HD
One of those options that you already thought existed for Android, but no. This is when Facebook has decided to allow the android operating system to upload the videos we make in HD. When there are already smartphones that record in 4K, Facebook takes a step forward while staying, however, one step behind.
Download videos for offline viewing and choice of video quality
If you recently Netflix took the plunge in downloading videos to watch offline, now Facebook would give this possibility, with the consequent saving of data and money on our bill.Likewise, and as you can do on YouTube, now on Facebook you will also have the option to choose in what quality you want to see the video in question. Very interesting option when it comes to saving data. Or to spend them, that the same thing you have left over.
Navigating the comments screen
Navigating through the multiple notifications that your contacts send you will be easier than ever. As you can see, at the top you will see two icons in the shape of up and down arrow, from which you can move through the notifications, in full screen, without having to go back to their menu.
Picture-in-picture display mode
How would you like to continue browsing the wall of Facebook while watching a video in the same application, for a floating window? Amazing! Well, that is what the “picture-to-picture” modality achieves, which we will soon be able to enjoy in our Facebook app on Android.
To these new features, we must add the crusade that Facebook has lately with false news If at first it seemed like that didn't go with them, they just got their act together adding an option with which they can report all those hoaxes, gossip and rumors that only dirty our wall and distort the world of journalism. In addition, among the latest news from Mark Zuckerberg's social network, we can find the custom frame design for our photos and a redesign of our wall view that would bring it a little closer to Snapchat.
What do you think of the Facebook app for Android? Do you have a problem with this application on your mobile? What other options do you expect in the future? Wouldn't it be better if Facebook focused on optimizing your app for non-top-of-the-line devices? Do not forget to leave your comments and suggestions. We are all ears.
