I've been having an ongoing issue with the Facebook app on my Nexus 5X and now nVidia Shield tablet where I can't write on any friends timelines.
If I load the app, There is a section at the top for me to 'Share an update' but if I look up a friend it appears to default to 'Search in friends posts'
Usually (If I remember correctly) you scroll past their pictures and friends list and at the top of their wall should be a section for you to write a post to that friend. However I'm just greeted with a white bar that shows 'Posts' which means I'm unable to write on their wall. I can respond to other things posted on their wall by the way of the comments section.
I've tried deleting and reinstalling all Facebook related stuff. Tried deleting then wiping the cache of the phone then reinstalling but the same issue remains. All apps are updated as and when they come out. I’ve recently downloaded the Facebook lite app and it works as expected so it appears to be an issue with the main Facebook app.
Am I missing something here or is it just totally broken? Am I trying to use the app an old/wrong way? Seems odd how Facebook lite works as I assumed it would.
