Facebook closes the Swipe and Simple Social apps

Apparently, use Facebook su Android it has never been too simple. And this is the reason why many users have decided to resort to third-party apps, faster and less heavy, to be able to access the social network from smartphones and tablets. Unfortunately, however, this will no longer be possible, as Zuckerberg's company has decided to block Swipe e Simple Social, two of the most popular Facebook alternative applications.


Facebook on Android: goodbye to third-party apps

These days Swipe and Simple Social have made it known that Facebook's lawyers are on his heels. "It is with a very heavy heart that finally the day has come to say goodbye to Swipe for Facebook", writes the developer of Swipe. “Today I received a termination and termination letter from some attorneys representing Facebook Inc. My Facebook and Instagram accounts were also permanently disabled (sadly they cut me off from tons of memories and contact with many distant relatives). I believe this has happened to a number of other developers and so Facebook's app wrapper day has finally come to an end ”.



According to these words it would seem that Facebook is going down hard. With the intention of eliminating alternative apps to Facebook on Android, the company is even personally attacking developers who do not want to give in to its request. Even the developer of Simple Social, in fact, has recently addressed a message to its users. “Due to the changes wanted by Facebook, Simple Social is no longer supported. You can continue to use Simple Social, however you do so at your choice. Your Facebook account may be disabled temporarily or permanently, which is not under the control of Creative Trends “.
