When I go to post something to facebook, I often mistakenly reply to someone instead of creating my own post. I understand that it will say in light grey letters "reply to [user]" but to me this is not enough differentiation. This is especially bad when I have clicked on someone's post (and so the posting area changes to reply mode) but then scroll past that post for a while and then choose to post my own update. My suggestions are one or both of the following:

1. Make it so that when a post I've clicked on scrolls off the screen, that post is automatically unselected.

2. Make the posting area much clearer when I am replying to someone, such as putting their profile picture next to the text box or implementing something similar to tweetdeck where the textbox is inline with the post I am replying to.

Thanks for the consideration!

   200% agree. It's actually me biggest issue with Socialite.

   Hi Guys

   Thanks for the feedback. We'll be making changes to Socalite's posting in the future, and this feedback will definitely be taken into account when we do make the changes. I can't say when we'll make them, but we definitely want to improve this area of the app.

   Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

   Kind regards,

   Nik
