The Facebook app, developed by Meta Platforms, Inc., is a social networking platform where users can connect with people and communities, explore interests, and share their world. The app has over 10 billion downloads and has a 4.3-star rating with 161 million reviews.

Key features of the Facebook app include:

• Connecting with people and communities: Users can join groups, share content to Instagram, and privately message friends.
• Exploring interests: The app allows users to search topics using Meta AI, shop on Marketplace, personalize their feed, and watch reels and videos.
• Sharing content: Users can create custom images using generative AI, customise their profiles, create reels, and share stories.

The Facebook app collects user data, including personal information, location, and device IDs, which may be shared with third parties. Data is encrypted in transit, and users can request data deletion.

However, some users have raised concerns about the app. Specifically, user reviews mention:

• Excessive data collection for ad targeting, including data from outside the app.
• Difficulty in adjusting privacy settings.
• An overwhelming amount of ads and suggested content in the feed, making it hard to see content from friends and family.
• Irrelevant notifications.

The app has a support email ([email protected]), a website, and a physical address (1 Hacker Way Menlo Park, CA 94025). Facebook also has other related apps like Messenger, Facebook Lite, Messenger Kids, Meta Business Suite, Meta Ads Manager, and Meta View.
