Anyone try this tweak? I know it's free, but I thought I'd ask before trying it. Does it work well? Cause any issues? I use the RecentFacebook tweak now, does Facebook++ offer to open directly to the Recent feed also? What other options does it have besides the few listed. It says many more features.

I've used several Facebook tweaks, and unfortunately they all suck, because FB updates so frequently the app devs don't do a good enough job keeping up and the app gets broken.

Good point

The two clicks it takes for me to get to "Most Recent" outweighs the 3-4 times a month they update the app and the tweak takes 4-5 days to update, thus causing me 4-5 times a month where I have to go in and uninstall the tweak to make Facebook usable until the app dev fixes it.

Definitely not a must-have tweak. On a scale of 1 to 10 its usefulness is about a 2... in comparison to others.

The tweak RecentFacebook, it only does that, but it has not needed to be updated since I've installed it. Even after Facebook app updates.

Congrats then because you're the only one.

Nope, he's not...

I installed RecentFacebook a while back, at least two or three FB-updates has come and past and none have broken RecentFacebook (which haven't been updated in the meantime)

Works the same as if it was the stock Facebook app, but offers more abilities. No more second app to send messages is the bonus for me. I did update Facebook and it still works well with the tweak.

Same here. No issues with RecentFacebook after any of the updates to the Facebook app.
