I would like to know when we will be able to watch posted videos using this iPhone facebook application? This is a real disadvantage over Blackberry! Or at least, being able to share those videos if not view them!

  1. The notification errors is a backend/server side bug, it will be fixed in a few days (http://twitter.com/joehewitt/status/3657576064)

  2. v3.0.1 was submitted hours after v3.0 went live into the store - it wasn't a planned release after 3.0, it was a bug fix release for issues found by the masses that wasn't located by the limited amount of beta testers (an Apple restriction). (http://twitter.com/joehewitt/status/3588374432 & http://twitter.com/joehewitt/status/3590689004 & http://twitter.com/joehewitt/status/3600083349)

  3. Push is coming in v3.1 currently being developed (http://twitter.com/joehewitt/status/3461400625)

  4. This app really doesn't have any 'MAJOR' bugs in it, if it's crashing non-stop then it's something screwy with your device. Restart the phone, if that doesn't fix it delete and reinstall the app, if that doesn't fix it I would do a backup & restore.

  5. Do yourself a favor and follow the developer if you use Twitter: http://twitter.com/joehewitt
