Facebook & Instagram

My Experience with Facebook & Instagram

I've used Facebook and Instagram for years, and both are great for staying connected and sharing content.

Facebook is excellent for keeping up with friends and groups, but it can feel cluttered and overwhelming at times, with too many features and ads. Privacy concerns also pop up occasionally.

Instagram is perfect for visual content and following creators, though the algorithm often favors ads over posts from people I follow. Overall, both apps are user-friendly, but improvements in privacy and ad balance would be appreciated.

I was first able to update the shop, but then it said I don't have access. I can't actually see the store on my FB or Instagram page. When I searched items to update the shop (when I had access) it couldn't find my collections or products so I had to search them manually. Needs simplifying.

Constant errors. Disconnected my store from my Instagram for no reason after selling for half a year. No help from customer service. Was just told "It's fixed" after doing nothing. TikTok shop incoming!

The integration of Shopify with Facebook and Instagram is a game-changer for online businesses. Setting up is straightforward, allowing seamless syncing of your product catalog to create shoppable posts and ads. This feature offers customers a smooth shopping experience, enabling them to browse and purchase products without leaving the social media apps.

Pros:

- Easy to set up and manage.

- Increases product visibility directly within social feeds.

- Provides valuable sales analytics to optimize marketing strategies.

Cons:

- Limited customization options for shoppable posts.

- Facebook shop approval process can be time-consuming.

I like it but Meta banded me from ads. My account was hacked during the pandemic and you guys never gave me a chance to talk to anyone. Your site is not friendly at all

Horrible. So glitchy! Products are approved and appear in one place but not another. Horrible interface that you can't update easily. THE WORST!!

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!

Though my shop is still under review, this is a very good platform sync that will give my new business a good reach

I would recommend this app because it gives me exposure and for that I'm forever grateful.

I think this a great service and it's helpful it's all linked together in one place... making it easy for someone like me, who doesn't have much experience and not very tech savvy.

I would like more IG specific - direct IG tools. IG will be my marketing tool and where my ads and visiblity will be. Always having to go through and deal with FB first, in my case was unecessary.
