[Android Central Question]

Note 8. All app data has been updated. In fact, I uninstalled facebook and messenger and then reinstalled. Still having the issue. The reaction bar begins to pop up but then freezes. After about 30 seconds, I get the Facebook isn't responding message.

Welcome to Android Central!

You could use the mobile website instead, at least until Facebook fixes this problem (if it is indeed a Facebook problem).

I'm having the same issue and also have a Note 8.

It sure seems like the app is the problem. I’ve just read through a dozen reivewers reporting crashes in various situations, so you’re not alone. You could try reporting it here (android-support@fb.com), but who knows whether they’ll respond?

At any rate, my previous recommendation still applies... use the mobile site until the app is fixed.

Exact same problem on my Galaxy S9+. Reset memory & cache to no avail.

I have exactly same problem since yesterday. S9+

This issue was resolved for me this morning after the Facebook app was updated through the Google Playstore.

Thanks, @tonybruns69!
