Facebook

You may have noticed Facebook sharing is not pre-populating your selected scriptures currently. This appears to be a conflict with iOS 8 and the latest versions of the Facebook app. (If you delete the Facebook app, pre-populated sharing works fine.)

I don't think there is anything I can do in the short term, but I am monitoring the situation and am considering alternative methods of sharing.

Two possibilities are:
  • Host the shared scriptures on a web site, sharing the link with Facebook rather than sharing the scripture text in your actual status (text would ideally be immediately displayed in the FB link preview)
  • Creating an image of the text, sharing the image with Facebook
Let me know if you have a preference!
