Since new update FB won’t open links

Updated to new iOS.16.2 and since then I can’t open links in FB, I’m not super tech savvy but I have googled it, cleared history and website data, tried both mobile data and wifi, it’s working for everyone else in the house and turned it off and on but it still it’s not opening the links 😂

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Hi Taylorbrooke182,


As you indicate you recently updated the iOS software of your device, it's important to ensure you've also updated your installed applications. How to manually update apps on your Apple device offers these steps:


"How to manually update apps on your iPhone or iPad

  1. Open the App Store.
  2. Tap your profile icon at the top of the screen.
  3. Scroll to see pending updates and release notes. Tap Update next to an app to update only that app, or tap Update All."


If the behavior continues and is affecting only this specific third-party app, use the steps from If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open up to contacting the developer if necessary for further assistance via How to contact an app developer.


Regards.
