I got really tired of Facebook deciding to show me the updates that 'it thought' I wanted to see, it's algorithm is broken.

It only shows you updates from people if they have got likes by other people, or if that person is very active. I found that if my friend didn't post that often on Facebook, I wouldn't see their posts as Facebook filtered them out. Also the Newsfeed is a cluttered mess, that you have got to constantly keep checking.

This led me to creating my own app, It's called Beehive, it's in the App Store now at this link

It's Free for the next week or so, and would love it if you guys would give it ago. It let's you filter your Facebook, Twitter and Instagram down to just those you really care about. The app is completely anonymous, and it pulls in data from the walls and profiles of people, not just filtering the Newsfeed, as the Newsfeed system is broken.

Would love any support or feedback people want to give.
Would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jack

Oh and it's getting an update in the next few days that makes it even easier to jump between Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
