Bug Description
Facebook page is very dynamic and receive new information very often but in the current app, there is no way to manually refresh the page to receive the new entries. And the page does not update automatically.
In the android face book app, it shows a notification inside of the app when you have new entry, clicking on it will go to the top of the timeline with the new entries. Or you can click in the specific button that will scroll you to the top and refresh it with new entries.
--- UX SOLUTION ---
The optional header design does have a refresh icon at the top.

This is not a bug of the container, but rather a limitation of the webapp itself. Read: Facebook's mobile site site. The same issue is present when using it on iOS for example.
Now, it means that we may have the need for a refresh button option, to use in webapps like these.
