Facebook is absolutely the most prominent social network platform as well as we like utilize it by means of our desktop computers as well as mobile phones. a lot of of us have it the Facebook app for Android installed on our devices. whatever was fine so far, however things are now going to be a bit twisted as the Facebook for Android is prompting individuals to download an update to a new develop (141046) of its app without going with the official Google Play store app.
The Facebook app on your phone downloads the update automatically and then beeps or vibrates incessantly up until you set up the update. The only other method to get rid of this is to uninstall the app altogether. We heard of this problem a few days back however it pertained to our notice just yesterday when Eric Hobart, one of our writers at the blog complained that he was getting force close error with the Google Play store app on his Verizon Galaxy S3. After much probe he lastly handled to repair this problem. You will be shocked to understand that he was not able to utilize the Play store app because something he was regularly getting update notice from Facebook as well as when he tapped it it directly took hip the Facebook app. Being annoyed, he uninstalled the app as well as thus coincidentally fixed the Play store FC error.
Many users are getting a persistent notification letting them understand that an update is ready, as well as on clicking the notification are taken directly to the Facebook app to download the new version. Frankly speaking, receiving an automatic app update is not that huge a worry however nobody likes his phone to keep beeping an vibrating till you do not listen to its request. It’s is so irritating. I dislike my Facebook app for that.
If you download the current version of the Facebook for Android App, you can clearly see, while installing it, a new silent guest that states “download data without notification.”
Facebook product manager, Srinivasan Raghwan, clarifies things as follows:
We’re working swiftly to enhance Facebook for Android as well as want to make sure everybody is utilizing the very best version of our app. You’ll experience these updates when you are on Wi-Fi, as well as they won’t depend on your data plan.
We do not understand what made Facebook feel that Google’s Play store which usually prompts individuals with notifications whenever an update is offered was not great enough.Whatever it is, we do not believe it is a great move. Well, an update is always welcome however an imposed update, NO! What do you say?
