title: Difference in result set between Graph API Explorer App and my app
body: <p>I am hoping someone can shed some light on this for me, as it has been driving me mad for some time now.</p>
  
  <p>I have an application that is trying to read a users feed. The user has given sufficient permission for this, as documented below. I do get a result set back, but the result set is not complete.</p>
  
  <p>If I run the same Graph API request using the Graph Api Explorer app, with the exact same permissions, as documented below, I get the full and correct result set back.</p>
  
  <p>I have detailed both result sets below. I have set a limit on the results in this example to 2 (as the first 2 results in the query are the ones that highlight this issue). However, you can replicate this by removing the limit or setting any other limit.</p>
  
  <p>As you can see, with the same permission set, and a valid access token for both requests, the response is completely different. The <strong>only</strong> difference that I know of between the type data that is missing from my app versus the data that is actually returned is that</p>
  
  <p>1) The first missing result is a post to a friend page, by the user
  2) The second missing result is data shared by the user via an app
  3) All results returned by My App are posts made by me on my own 'Timeline/Wall' (whatever it is referred to now</p>
  
  <p>Would there be any reason why my app (even though the permissions are the same as the Graph Api Explorer app) would not return those 2 types of posts?</p>
  
  <p>All help and suggestion greatly appreciated.</p>
