Facebook App messes up iPhone?

[furygoalbrtis39]

I went into the Apple store about my phone being slow, and an apple store "genius" recommended that I delete the Facebook app because it slows down the iPhone by loading it with crap.
Can anyone confirm or deny this?

I can't confirm or deny this, but all I know is that the facebook app is horrible! It's a suprise everytime you use it...you don't know what is going to be slow, or just not load. Pretty annoying.

Did this "genius" say it slowed down the phone even when you aren't using the app, or only when you are actively using it?

He told me that the app had screwed up the firmware on my device, and that a complete restore was my only option. I did the restore and my phone is faster, but I'm still curious about the app itself.

Fb app does suck but I highly doubt that app alone corrupted the OS .. Could have been a number of things
