Facebook crashes on my iPad after iPadOS 17 update

On iPad air4, Facebook app crashes instantly after ios17? Facebook on App Store claims it was updated, but this update crashes. Not FB MESSENGER for me, but just FB. Apple support clueless, but many seem to have this issue. Any tips or just hope FB corrects?

Apple Support wouldn't know what FB is doing with their apps. Unfortunately, it seems like FB doesn't know what they're doing with their apps, either. The iPad app has been a disaster for months. Until FB figures out what they're doing, your best bet is to use a browser.

Not an option. We have international followers who depend on our streams on Facebook. In any case, this is getting away from the topic. Facebook works perfectly well for our streaming. It is the general use of Facebook on my iPad that is the issue at hand, and I want help fixing it, please.

Other streaming platforms work internationally so, I'm not sure why where people are is an issue.


If FB worked "perfectly well", you wouldn't be posting here. Facebook/Meta has shown little interest in maintaining their iOS and iPadOS apps lately. Remember, you are not their customer. You merely provide them with the product they sell for a great deal of money: your data.
