Facebook made some changes earlier today which made it impossible for users of Chit Chat for Facebook to login – users whom attempted to login to Facebook Chat with Chit Chat were presented with a “Login Failed. Please Try Again” message.

We have now fixed this issue; however, you’ll need to install the new version of Chit Chat.

If you download and install the new version of Chit Chat for Facebook you’ll be able to login without a problem.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for using Chit Chat and apologise for any inconvenience experienced.
