  • I have been experiencing the same issues for the past few days. I also choose to use the desktop version on a Chrome browser.
    I noticed that it also affects sending messages where you choose the option 'Press Enter to send'.
    It doesn't appear to affect any other functionality of the android tablet (Nexus 7 2012 Andoird version 6.0.1).
    It must be an issue with eth Google Keyboard and Facebook?

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Try another browser instead of Chrome (Dolphin, Opera, Firefox), and/or try another keyboard app to see if it makes a difference. Can you try using the mobile version instead of the desktop version on Chrome too?

    Also, what build of Chrome are people using that are having problems?
  • The problem disappears when using Firefox browser.
    Must be a Chrome issue.
    Thanks

    Showing my ignorance here but can you run Firefox as your browser on an android tablet. I thought the default was Chrome because it is android?

    You can run whatever browser you want, no need to stick with Chrome. Just pick one and download it from Google Play. Dolphin for example is a browser specifically made for the mobile/tablet market.
  • Have you found a solution littlerock? I have the same problem with my hudl 2 and the desktop version of Facebook. I'd rather continue browsing with Chrome than use a different browser.

    I had the same problem with my Bush android tablet. SIL sorted it by downloading the Facebook app. I could then use Facebook on chrome with no problems.
