Cardinal News (Arlington Cardinal) is getting reports from Android users that when they access a referred link to Arlington Cardinal from the Facebook app, the end of the article is cut off. The problem does not seem to be affecting Apple iPhone users.

Some apps, such as the Facebook app, have the capability to go to a browser within the app. These apps don’t always function properly as the browser accessed within the app is sometimes dysfunctional. Over the years there have been other apps that don’t properly render websites with their intra-browser app connection.

Facebook has a confusing set of instructions for web developers, and as a user over the years, you have probably noticed how Facebook changes layouts and methods that have negatively affected your user experience with Facebook. For example, Facebook sometimes moves the location of their page elements (buttons, etc.) without alerting users about changes. Also, at one point a few years ago, they had a search box that could search within a Facebook page. That search box mysteriously disappeared with no announcement. Facebook doesn’t provide any links to an official blog, which could help users by explaining the addition or deletion of Facebook features, or other changes.

The Facebook app is also known to be a major drain on batteries on mobile devices.
