What was the best part about using Facebook Pages Manager?
Facebook Pages Manager is a mobile app available for iPhone and Android devices and I've had it on my device for a few years already. It's useful for viewing various insights regarding your page such as like, new comments, shares, and overall activity on the go. If you're a content marketer you'll find it useful especially when having multiple pages to monitor it's very useful.
I like that you can promote your page right from the app and invite friends to it as well. It syncs right to your Facebook account in your smartphone and logs you in automatically. It allows you to choose whether you want push notifications sent when new Facebook likes, messages or other criteria you can setup in your settings.
From in the app you can post new events, videos, images and updates about anything relevant to your page which is great as someone who works from my laptop for a living it's awesome to be able to travel and still check in on our contents and all of the activity to our fanpage. You can manage multiple pages from it which is cool and set all of that up in the settings area as well.
I like being able to manage and edit your pages right from the app. It's something I'm likely to do when I'm using public transportation, or having a coffee and am usually on the go so I'm quite impressed after reinstalling it on my iPhone 4 how fast this latest version runs and has the ability to help me be more efficient and productive with my time.
You can do almost everything you can do to your Fanpages from inside your Facebook account. I didn't realize it before or maybe their was something buggy when I used it last I honestly don't recall but I'm really happy to have tried it again because even on my older phone it is very fast. This phone is almost six years old so I notice the fastest apps and websites. This is easily the fastest app I recall using with this much complexity built into it on my iPhone 4 with iOs 7 as of the day I'm reviewing it. And I'm excited to upgrade my phone soon too.
You have full admin access and can set this up for your pages from the app as well. We have a Facebook sweepstakes launching in two days from our Fanpage so this is great timing because I want to be able to track and respond to all of our activity from my phone and I didn't expect to have this much success with this app when trying it again.
You can connect to the Mobile Ads Manager right from you app too, which is awesome and I didn't realize how easy it was to do. I'm definitely going to recommend this app. You'll find quite a few negative reviews for it online but perhaps take them with a grain of salt and try it first, or perhaps they are from an older version because you do well to try it to see, there's no harm done because it's free and you'll know in under ten minutes if it works you as well as it does here.
What would you change about your experience with Facebook Pages Manager?
I'm trying to think of what I don't like about this app knowing there are fifty words required in order for me to say that I can not honestly think of a reason not to use this app for Facebook Fanpage management and promotion. It's free and it has amazing value to business people especially if you're mobile. I didn't notice one thing about it I didn't like and this is coming from someone who has tried hundreds of softwares as part of my job in the last few weeks alone.
Overall Feedback
From tracking engagement, to scheduling event based posts and replying to comments you can do it all from this app, and I am honestly very pleased at the performance on my older iPhone 4. It is blazing fast and has all of the customization and configuration possible as in my Facebook account from my laptop or computer. I couldn't recommend an app more than I am Facebook Fanpages Manager because it awesome in every way I'm surprised somehow I feel this way, mostly because I had uninstalled it from my iPhone at one point because it didn't knock my socks off or there was a glitch I don't recall, but having reinstalled it just in time to run a sweepstakes in a couple days and being able to monitor activity and respond to comments from my phone makes it so much easier. Highly recommended.
