Facebook contact photo sync

awec · 2015-10-28 16:21:52

Hi, Has anyone got this to work? Every time I click to update all contacts (in Settings > Facebook) it says 0 contacts updated. It definitely syncs some contacts (some new contacts have been downloaded) but my existing contacts have no photo. It doesn't even link facebook details to the contacts. Any idea of the solution?

I find it only works for friends that have their phone number or other contact info (an email, say) shown to friends etc, if it's hidden the app can't link them. That's just a theory I have. It's super hit and miss.
