Default Facebook, the new battery killing app.

I have a real issue with the new facebook, since they introduced chat to the FB app it stays open even when you use the back button, im not using home because I know that doesnt close the app. I try to avoid even pressing the app until it is fixed.

Do you leave chat on? I have no problems either.

When you're at the main chat screen:

Hit Menu -> Go Offline.

That will sign you out of chat and not drain your battery.

The built-in chat sucks anyway.

Use go! chat, much better and no battery loss for keeping yourself logged in.

I never bitched about chat in the app.

I would rather have a dedicated app for it.

My only complaint was that we never had push notifications.
And still don't.
