Facebook and Instagram are the right place to support dealings with others, and from here they have benefited me a lot in my humble store, as we trade in all kinds of children's products, from clothes and toys to others. From this standpoint, Facebook and Instagram have benefited us a lot to communicate with others, customers and friends.

No voy a decir que sea un proceso facil, pero si es muy confiable y te guía muy bien cuando tienes tareas pendientes para completar.

This requires a higher level of technical savvy than your standard skill set. I found it incredibly challenging and confusing to navigate. If you are not planning to run ads then it shouldn't be an issue. I have had multiple different issues getting set up with META ads through this channel, as well as getting the shop approved within FB. The most frustrating piece has been lack of clarity and support. I have contacted support more than I would like to admit, spent hours on calls over the past couple weeks, and the issues are still there. It's unbelievable really. All of the support team members have been very courteous and kind, they are doing what they have been trained to do. There is a larger structural issue here though. For some reason they allow ease of access to general support but make it quite challenging to directly access support for Ads. In my experience, I found a considerable amount of gatekeeping / stalling to access this level of support. I had to restart and go back through general support each time. Blah blah blah. I really dislike having to report negativity like this but these are the facts. Overall, very challenging. If you are not a Dev or super tech savvy, I recommend hiring a Dev. to get you up and running. Not kidding.

Honestly when it works it is nice, but every time I add a new physical — not digital — product it will not automatically sync, then I am forced to reach out to support and talk for multiple days trying so many different things just to get a new product synced. It is a nightmare and delays selling products for myself. A product will randomly sync like 3 weeks later. There is no refresh button for synching or anything simple. I would not suggest it.

Can't connect shopify and facebook, instagram. Been in-review for a couple of weeks. I've had a look and this is a common problem since 2022. Why it hasn't been sorted I don't know. Better off paying a bit extra for Wordpress or something simular.

L'app va benissimo ma sarebbe interessante poter fare i post direttamente su shopify per poi inviarli direttamente sulla pagina del proprio negozio Facebook

Ik heb pas net dus helaas kan ik hem niet beoordelen. Ik hoop dat ik in toekomst weer een kans krijgen om deze te kunnen beoordelen.

Awful. Product hero images were generating at random - the back of a shirt, for example, would show as the hero image, while the same product would have the correct Hero Image when featured more than once. Live shop editor is trash. It doesn't show you the live preview while you are editing - like how Shopify does when editing your theme. I contacted support about the above and now my Facebook and Instagram shop are disabled. So - I am now losing money. Thanks, Meta!

We could not connect our shopify store to this app. Meta always returns with tons of unresolvable errors and there is no one to attend.

Extremely complex to use. Without no support from Facebook knowing that i have created a business account. FB should reach out to customers registered for BA if they need technical help or not.

It's frustrating that I can't use collections I've already created in Shopify in this app - having to redo work is maddening.

Minha conta de anúncios foi bloqueada no primeiro anúncio, e eu não consigo mudar as páginas do face e do instagram e por um novo pixel para dar continuidade no tráfego pago.. É muito dificil, mas vamos tentar mais um pouco.

There's a problem with my app and it says 'Action Needed' but what action is needed? It doesn't tell me. I tried to get help and it said "Your chat is available in Messenger. You can open the chat if you have questions or need more support. Your case number is 26636240612688089." So I clicked "Open chat" and it opened a message window but it's completely blank. Do I wait for someone or begin the chat? I tried typing a message and it says "Couldn't send". Very very frustrating. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do.

Once you can get hold of a human the support is second to none. Getting connected to a human being was almost impossible but once I worked out how to get real life support the help I got was 5* and I got everything sorted. Thank you Dennis and Elizabeth!

Não consigo vender, minha loja nunca sai da analise, e eu estou gastando muito dinheiro só para deixar a loja da shopify aberta, eu quero vender outros produtos no catálogo mais não consigo, gastei mais dinheiro para anunciar no facebook e ainda não vendi nada, pelo amor de Deus resolva isso logo, quero colocar novos produtos no catálago e deixar a loja a mostra para que outras pessoas comprem... O app parece que está bugado por que tem muito tempo que ela tá em analise eu já consertei os erros eu só queria vender. Me ajudem na loja diz, Sincronizando informações adicionais Você poderá começar a vender assim que a sincronização for concluída. era pra isso durar apenas 48h mais tem muito tempo que está assim e não sai, EU QUERO VENDERRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
