Facebook App Center - Android developers experience - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hello guys!
I've opened this thread in order to collect some facts and issues by android developers who use the facebook app center. My experience is really bad, so I want to know if somebody had a bad experience like mine!
Please put the name of the app and after the "story".
--------
Fast for Facebook
My experience is really really bad, my app is ALWAYS under review.
They asked me to change the privacy policy about 5 times, descriptions, screenshots, covers... everything!
Today the worst thing is that they realized that they don't like the app, so they replied to me in this way:
"Apps that replicate facebook functionality are not permitted in app center"
Uhm, yeah? After 1 months of strange reviews? What about friendcaster? or seesmic? Why these apps are listed, but not mine? Lol?
I think I will give up on the app center, unless they will reply to my messages.

They find you as a threat because your Facebook application is much better then there's and its much faster don't give up on this at all you have my support

+1 you have full support from all xda
Don't give up! Your application is now running in my ROMs with thousands people using it!

As said before. Don't give up. Your app is great. They are just scared.
I use your app daily. Used friendcaster before but it was always buggy. Your app maybe don't have all the functions yet. But it is the best app for facebook anyway.
I have tried Facebooks official app but don't get me started....
Keep up the good work

Thank you raymond! I will never give up on Fast, I will give up on the app center submission! I don't care if they want to obstruct this project, it's just unfair that other apps are listed but not mine!

Thx! I will work on this until Facebook will give up on his official crappy app

And by the way the reason why they don't accept Fast on app center is not listed in the official policy https://developers.facebook.com/policy/
( the reason: Apps that replicate facebook functionality are not permitted in app center )

Thank you so much guys!!! :good:
Anyway I am really pissed off. They don't reply to my messages and Fast is still unlisted!!! :cyclops:
The funny thing is that I have told them in my messages that other apps that replicates facebook functions are listed in the app centre.
An example? https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/112618498804176?fb_source=appcenter https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/23723376453?fb_source=appcenter https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/getpath?fb_source=appcenter
I don't care if Fast is listed or not. We are a great community full of supporters, we don't need them.
But I don't accept unfairness. What is fair? Remove them or add the other apps unlisted. That's easy :/

Some good guy at facebook re-accepted Fast in the app center.
You can check it here https://www.facebook.com/appcenter
Finally xD

Good sir,
Ut app so fast in my rom fast fast fast

Post them here with a short description, and if anyone knows where to find one, please show us the way.
A small thanks goes a loooong way!
Now, I wish I have the following apps...
1. Time-lapse App for camera.. for taking pics with variable time-delay + max photo option.
2. Apps usage statistics: An app to track which apps I used the most, with number of times/hours used per day/week/month...
3. Modem Sounds: An app to simulate/convert data into modem sounds.

There is an app called TeamViewer downloader. You install this which then goes out and installs the actual team viewer software on your device. It worked fine on my VZN GT.

They won't get it immediatley though. People get help on here when people are:

[req-app] Best multi-downloading Mp3 [music] downloader

not sure if the applications are legal or if this actually piracy, if it is then close the thread if it isn't feel free to help me with this
So everybody knows that there are many mp3 downloading apps in the market but I am looking for the best one.
one that has fast multi-downloading.
good and human-friendly interface.
hopefully free? if there is a paid app ill look into it, maybe if I am satisfied with the results ill buy it.
Again, excuse me if this is warez... its just bit different than cracking a paid app..

The first is a twitter app i made. It doesnt have a timeline. its basically for rapid tweeting or for people who dont care what others have to tweet and just want to tweet.

The second app is an app that just speaks whatever u type. it as as boring as you are. so if you are a boring person than the app will be boring. it can be very humorous with the right words and phrases.

Facebook native for andriod

Perhaps most of you know this all ready. And honestly with Facebook you are the product cause your not a customer. However because I along with others have family on Facebook we are in a bind. Well Facebook went native and it finally works well with android. So for the others that have resisted being a user. Maybe its time to give them one more shot?

so far im very impressed with 2.0
The experience is definitely improved with the latest version.
Yup, much better.
Also, the argument that if you're not paying something "you're the product" is.... well I'll just say "dramatic." Yes you're being advertised to, and maybe your information is being used for advertising purposes, but.... most normal people don't give a crap, and it certainly doesn't hurt you.

I couldn't agree with you more about it hurting anyone.
Its not dramatics' its a simple fact. And that's OK that they sell my info to make money so I can have a free social media outlet.
I Apologize if this thread seems derogatory to Facebook. They seem to had missed the mark with not taking care of its "product". A vast amount of android users became disheartened of the HTML code. I wrote emails to fb explained how it seemed they were ignoring the android user.
I digress... the point of this thread was to welcome back and perhaps persuade old users to "give them one more shot" I would have never thought I'd give fb 5stars for the app! all my cool friends are on Google + and my sheep ios family are on fb.
My cool friends are all you guys on XDA!

It seems good only because the previous version sucked so hard.
We have low expectations for FB, and they finally exceeded them.

I usually just used the browser and the mobile site or the Friendcaster app. The mobile FB site looked almost the same as the old app and Friendcaster works really well on a tablet. I'll definitely check out the new update though. It has to be better than before.
