Facebook app requires repeated sign-in Recently, the Facebook app on my Droid 1 (Android 2.2.2) started prompting me to sign-in throughout the day. I get a pop up that says:

Facebook Sign-in
Please re-enter your Facebook password

It shows my username and asks for my password.

It seems that if I don't use the phone for a few hours, when I pick it up, this sign-in is waiting for me.

Any ideas why? or what changed?



Update - not sure, but http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13331773 says


  It seems like the mobile app doesn't
  play nice with HTTPS (secure browsing)
  if you have it enabled on the Facebook
  website. After disabling HTTPS on the
  full Facebook website under Account
  Settings, I was able to log in and
  stay logged in without an issue.


I don't want to give up secure browsing, but perhaps there was a bug in a recent udpate to the app?
I had issues with the last Facebook update, the one that came out the past 2 weeks.  I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and now it works correctly.  My issue wasn't quite the same as yours, it kept redirecting to the mobile website (although I do suspect some http vs. https issue), but I would give it a try.  I know the advice seems weird because the update is like a new install, but it worked for me.
