iOS 27 update and having an issue

Updated to iOS 27.0 and now my Facebook is no longer full screen. I’ve deleted and re-installed it twice and it’s still not fixed. Any ideas? Thank you!

Not every issue an individual encounters on their device can be attributed to an iOS update. If the update itself were the root cause, then every device running that same version of iOS would exhibit the identical problem. In such a scenario, the forums would be flooded with countless posts reporting the same malfunction, creating an unmistakable wave of complaints that no one could possibly overlook. The absence of such widespread reports strongly indicates that the issue is not systemic, but rather specific to the device in question.

If you are saying that Facebook is no longer displaying in full-screen mode on iOS 27, it would help to provide a little more information about exactly what you are experiencing.


It is not clear whether you are referring to:

  • iPhone or iPad
  • The Facebook Home/News Feed
  • Reels
  • Posts
  • Profile page
  • Friends page
  • Photos or Videos
  • Or some other section of the Facebook app


Also, please mention your iPhone/iPad model and the version of the Facebook app you are using. If possible, include a screenshot showing the area that is no longer appearing full-screen.


For comparison, I am using Facebook on an iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 27, and the different sections of the app appear to be displaying normally and using the available screen area as expected.


Therefore, based on the information provided, it is difficult to determine whether this is an iOS 27 issue, a Facebook app design/change, or something specific to a particular device or section of the app. More details or a screenshot would make it much easier to understand and troubleshoot the problem.
