Anyone using Facebook app?

Anyone else have the wrong date displayed in Facebook app?

Mine is always a day ahead - anyone know how to fix this? Cheers.

Re: Anyone using Facebook app?

Mine is 8 hours ahead for some reason - I can't see where or how to change it though - it's very annoying!

Re: Anyone using Facebook app?

Ditto. Always 7 Hours ahead.

The app is pretty buggy, but then again it was free and better than using the mobile site, so cant complain.

Re: Anyone using Facebook app?

Never noticed that before, 17 hours ahead here!

Can only assume it is set on US time as most people on here are 7/8 hours ahead and im 9 hours ahead of you being in Perth.

i was reading up on this on google...i found at times it would show the correct time and there were times when it would be a good few hours out. apparently this is a known issue with the facebook app and there is no way to correct it at the moment.

Re: Anyone using Facebook app?

ive just updated the facebook app, but now it won't load up. Starts to (as in opens a white page with facebook on it), but then goes back to the spring board.

Ive tried rebooting, fixing user dir's, etc but nothing.


Any ideas ?
