Comments on: Facebook 3.0 (Sans Push) for iPhone Submitted to iTunes App Store http://www.imore.com/2009/08/16/facebook-30-sans-push-submitted-app-store/ More of everything iPhone and iPad Sat, 11 Feb 2012 01:30:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Chad http://www.imore.com/2009/08/16/facebook-30-sans-push-submitted-app-store/comment-page-1/#comment-70261 Chad Sat, 22 Aug 2009 03:01:50 +0000 http://www.theiphoneblog.com/?p=10483#comment-70261 <p>Why do people complain about late releases for something that is free? You could go switch platforms and see how much better the iPhone app already is over the Android and blackberry. Also, if you want you could try developing an app yourself. Joe Hewitt puts a lot of time in polishing and making this app work, it has to be well done. Again, stop complaining, go outside and breathe some fresh air and maybe read a book, there are more important things to complain about.</p> <p>Joe Hewitt, keep up the good work.</p> Why do people complain about late releases for something that is free?

Currently I have several contacts that have an SMS text alert when they post, so that at least gives me the least intrusive push service without wasting my time with little johnny needs a new liver gush posts, that have to be turned off with every single contact on your customized lists.

Can someone at least post an opinion on making a case for push regarding facebook. There might be something I am missing and I would rather have an informed opinion, rather than one based on outdated thinking.

I waited long enough for a variety of improvements in the iPhone itself, so a couple more months for me is not gonna break the bank, but the app store really needs to streamline it’s approval protocols, and I second the suggestion that the updates get a second tier approval pipeline, twitterific apparently gets faster approval than facebook, WTF

People really need to stop thinking they're entitled to everything and just relax. Wouldn't you rather they take their time to ensure the app is 100% and not just rush it out because people have no patience to wait causing crashes and other issues? Facebook is a FREE service...keep that in mind. For those complaining about push...like someone else said, you went all this time without it plus if you need the notification that badly, you can get them thru email & text which is the same thing as push pretty much. Enough with the negative...life is way too short</p> I agree, there are way too many people complaining. People really need to stop thinking they’re entitled to everything and just relax.
