- leonatan 11y agoAnd it's not really that complex when you look at it from a macro view point. Its purpose should be even smaller.
- justinlardinois 11y agoFrom having used the Facebook iOS app for the last four years or so, I assumed that they had taken the agile methodology to the extreme. They keep adding more and more features to the app until it's unusable, and every now and then throw the whole thing away and start from scratch. Granted, I've had an iPhone 4 the whole time, so the experience has gotten worse and worse as time's gone on. But there's definitely been performance booms and busts throughout that time, with the performance getting a lot better whenever they release a version that's been completely redesigned.

When you come across a rarely used feature, you'll often find you get the mobile site in a web view (which has a noticeably different interface) instead of an in-app implementation. Polls in Groups are the last one I remember coming across.
