Soon, Facebook Users Will Be Able To Report Bugs Simply By Shaking Their Phones

Sometimes applications on mobile devices get corrupted by bugs and when users want to have them fixed, the best they can do is to report the bugs to developers. However, sometimes, the process as to reporting bugs are not clearly shown in apps. And Facebook wants to improve that by changing the way users can report bugs they encounter while using the app to make it easier. Specifically, you only need to shake the phone once to complete the operation.

Facebook is likely to include this feature in the coming update for its app. Instead of searching for a bug report button, users will now open the bug reporting menu with a phone shake. This “shake to report” feature used to be available on iOS as an opt-in feature. It seems that the company is trying to make it a major feature of the application on both Android and iOS platforms.

Of course, users can still send bug reports via the Help & Support menu. Facebook said it expects users to use this new method more because it is more convenient and easier to use.

Not only does it report bugs, but this feature can also be used to report other things. For example, you can use this feature to report when you don't know how to use a certain feature. It seems that Facebook will not use this feature to show you how to use certain features. However, it is a tool for companies to understand user confusion through reports. And if the number of people sending reports is too large, Facebook may improve those features for users to better understand and use more easily.
