I don't think it's that bad at all. The Android version is by far worse in my opinion as it's always getting frozen and force closed. So far no issues for me with the FB app.
I have the FB app for iOS, Android, and WP. I think they are all pretty bad or just mediocre at best.
The FB on iOS was better back in 2009. A better and easier to navigate layout. I hate the sidebar on the left. The Windows Phone is less cluttered to look out, but also very barren and doesn't update that much. And the Android is like the iOS version, but much worse. Keeps asking me to take a tour when I don't want to. I'd say iOS is the best followed by WP and then Android which is more of a poor man's version from the iOS' version. But they ALL need improvement. None are that good, but can still be useful. It is like the official Twitter app. Not my favorite or the best, but I can still use them esp on WP and Android.

Facebook in general isn't that great. their site doesn't work half the time so i don't expect the app to be perfect either. but it is certainly functional most of the time.
Facebook app is the worst than old Facebook..it does not always update feeds at all and the notification doesn't tell much!
I use both the iPhone (4S) and iPad (2) versions of the app, and I don't have any of the issues people are complaining about. I use both daily and if ever do I have crashes or anything like that.
I do miss not being able to 'post via iPhone' now, but thats not a big deal. I also really like the Facebook messages app (standalone chat) it is zoo much better then the old chat on the app.

With the latest update, can we sign on and off from chat???
I can't seem to view that option in either my iPhone or iPad.
