Is your Facebook app crashing?

Reports have just started popping up of Facebook’s iOS application crashing on launch. Apparently, it seems more consistent on devices running iOS 5.x, however it is still occurring on iOS 6.x. I just finished installing the iOS 6.1 beta, and have gotten this to happen once, however it is very hit or miss.

Is yours crashing? If so, what version of iOS are you running? Also if it isn’t, what version? Let us know in the comments, and let’s hope they can get this figured out.

Upgrade to iOS 6.0.1. Remove and delete Facebook app from iTunes. Sync iPhone. Make sure to pick "don't sync" when iTunes sees that you have FB app on your phone and not on your iTunes. Delete the FB app also from the iPhone screen where your icon is and sync again. When you're sure you no longer have FB in you iTunes nor on your iPhone, go to FB on your web browser and change your privacy settings from what it is now to something else, like from Friends Only to Public. Save it. Logout. Log back in and change your privacy back to what it was before. Save it. Logout of FB. Now launch iTunes again, go to the App Store and get the FB app again. Install it and sync your iPhone again. Maybe not all of those steps are necessary but when my wife and I did that this morning on her iPhone 5, FB app was fixed!

Is iOS 6.0.1 what you have if you apply the wi-fi software update?

My wife and I both have iPhone 5. FB crashes at launch consistently. Her's has a notification in settings about the mentioned software update. Mine doesn't.

 

FB app is running on mine (6.0 10A405)

Incidentally, my belief is that it is related to an update to either Facebook user profile features or Facebook OAuth authentication, at Facebook's web backend. In other words, one of their developers pushed some bad code to production. The problem very likely has nothing to do with the actual Facebook iPhone app.
