Beejive for Facebook - Chat, Messenger, and More App Reviews

This is a million times better than any of the other fb apps. I just havent been able to work out how to upload pics - thatd get it 5 stars

great concept but very laggy 

Other than the fact that I cant find how to checkin, its quite a good app.

The chat part works great. Cant say that for the official app. I have noticed that I am not seeing posts from some of my friends though and it would be nice to be able to switch news feeds.

*Im currently downloading the update and will post an repost to this review in a few days after the App has had some good use. Id like to say that less than three days after posting my concerns over the App, the Beejive team posted this update which appears to contain fixes for pretty much every issue Ive had. Four stars for taking care of business like lightning. Five in a few days if the notifications now work. Thanks!!! Ive had this App for months and it works so much better than the actual Facebook App and is far less cluttered. However, I have all the push settings turned on in the App, as well as the actual iPhone settings, and have yet to receive a single icon, sound, etc., to notify me when I get an inbox message or notification. I have to actually open the App, pull down the screen and let it refresh before it will show me I have any messages or notifications. When the App is open and someone replies, I still have to refresh with a pull down to see the message or notifications and even if I leave the App running in the background, this issue persists. I keep the chat offline, as I dont want to be constantly bothered all day. Perhaps I have to be "online" for the push notifications on the inbox and notifications to work. If so, it would be nice if you could fix that feature. Also, there is no list option for events and birthdays. This would be really helpful as opposed to opening a Safari-like page that has a shrunken desktop version of the website. Its very frustrating. I do love this App very much and have purchased and used your IM App as well. I have also paid to have the ads removed in this App. Im not someone whos complaining over freebies. Im a paying customer and if at all possible, could you please sort these issues out? Please and thank you. This App has the potential to be five stars, but I have dropped it below the three star zone to, hopefully, get your attention. Thanks again!

Compared to the original Facebook in the app store, much better!

Good because different concept then any other FB Apps . Bad few major options missing Push doesnt work No Pic uploading Locations ? Native FB interface is better if you can make it that way , (tabs I mean) its kinda not friendly to go on more and scroll down options . Chat show friends offline all the time .

Its not sending me my msg right away or sometimes not at all

Actually works great. And for those who are saying that theres no way to get rid of the apps, THERE IS! Explore the app people! 

Id say chatting wise it was alright, except for annoying Send button that replaces the return button, and you keep sending stuff in the middle of typing. And everytime you log back in your inbox says like at least 10 messages havent been opened and you have to do that everytime. Otherwise, its decent but not the best.

Amazing app! I just love it! I dont know if you guys added notifications for when somebody gives you a "like", or something like that, but I hope that this feature is present in 2.5. Also, Id love to see the video chat feature implemented. Any hope on that one ? Otherwise, I just love this app! Its reliable, and works as advertised. Thanks!

It was fine, but now it keeps freezing and shutting off before I can click on my friends to chat with!! Please fix this SOON!!!

Push actually works and the app works nice and smooth. The offical app should be like this... Ow wait it was, till they messed it up... Nice work bringing the old spirit back! I would buy pro, but I dont have premishon to use the credit card on this account (it is my parents). Facebook themselves should pay you for this app! Just add the ability to tag people in photos, ok?! Cool ;)

some little flaws here and there but great app in general. i like mostly how the chat comes out thx

Once someone tells me how to get rid of a notification for an unread message. It says there is x amount of unread inbox messages and being ocd it always has to be at zero for me but i cant get it to hide Help a fellow earthling out! Andrew.hartwig1 at gmail dot com

I really like this app and how its similar to the windows live messenger however.. It wont let me comment or like posts. I just installed this app so its really not making a good first impression. I was also hoping if the developer can update a "log out" button so that I can still maintain my privacy even when Im not in it. Please fix it because id really like to keep this =T.

I like it but there is a problem about status I cant like my status or look at status not cool but better app

I really like this app a lot :) its better then the actual Facebook app! I only have one wish, well two. If we could make new albums, that would be cool :) Ad if they could fix the new bug that came with the new update :( I cant delete photos or anything now, please fix!! Overall its a really great app, and helps me with all my Facebook needs, the new albums thing would be very nice :)

Love this app, but it has tht icon tht says tht I havent answered my friend when i did

I love this app for the chat feature, however you should be able to delete previous convos by either swiping or something. Other than not being able to delete messages from the app its all around a great thing!
