Re: Annoying Facebook App Issue and a VoiceOver Question
Hi Donna, and others. I too have this same problem in FB. But when I go to settings and contacts, I can’s find anything in there telling me to turn off contacts in other applications. Is this not an option in iOS 13? Peace & Blessings, Duane L.

Re: Annoying Facebook App Issue and a VoiceOver Question
Hi, I may have accidently happened upon the setting that will, hopefully stop this very annoying Facebook bug or whatever you want to call it. I haven’t had a chance to confirm my finding. Go to settings, contacts, turn off Find contacts in other apps. If this doesn’t work..My next observation is that the interrupting contact name pop-ups is a group setting. I don’t experience the name suggestion, if I’m replying to a friends post on my news feed or community pages.

Facebook APP Issue
Along with hearing "product" which others have mentioned, I'm also finding that things are extremely sluggish when I'm on the birthday reminders screen. By sluggish I mean waiting up to a second sometimes for VO to respond to a simple flick right gesture. Does anybody have an accessibility-related email address at Facebook we can use, or should I just contact regular tech support to report this?

Re: Facebook App Issue
Hey all, Just wanted to let the list know in case anyone else had the same problem of new friend requests not showing up, as I let the app sit on the requests tab and open for ten minutes but that still didn't populate the list, so I deleted the app and reinstalled it and sure enough the requests are coming through fine again.
