This document summarizes and reviews the Facebook iApp for page owners. It allows page managers to access their page from their mobile device. The app allows managers to see the page, write text updates, and share one photo at a time. It also provides insights into individual post popularity and filters to view recent posts. However, the app is missing key features like creating photo albums and uploading multiple photos at once. It also lacks an optimized interface for larger iPad screens.

1. Facebook iApp for Page Owners
Review

2. Facebook recently released an app only for
page managers! It is targeted to page owners
only and provides some assistance when the
community manager is on the go!
This app can be downloaded from a page itself
by its admin, its not available on the app store
at all!

3. Simple app where the
manager can see the page,
write simple text updates and
share a picture at a time!

4. Insights
• Bare Minimum
Good for a quick look!

5. Individual Post Insights
• Shows individual post
popularity

6. Page View Filter
A useful filter that lets the
manager quickly view the
various recent posts on the
page - by page admins, fans
and those marked spam!

7. Notifications
Similar to a Facebook profile,
the notifications - page likes,
messages or other stuff
highlighted on the top bar!

8. Multiple Pages
• A sidebar similar to the
common Facebook app but
only to shift between different
pages
• It also provide a few page
backend features like
insights and admin
management
• Best part is the manager can
respond to messages on the
fly!

9. Synopsis
Its a good app to start with. Its great use when
the manager checks the page to see whats
going on. Some q's it answers,
• Has the recent post by the other admin been
published?
• What views, response its got?
• Have fans posted any customer queries via wall
post, comment or message?

10. It's good to keep check on what's happening on the
page but needs many upgrades to make it a
publishing tool for the manager! Some features
sorely missed,
• Create and add to picture albums
Covering an event with the iPad is impossible on Facebook. Each
new pic has to be made as a separate update. For a colorful event
like say the Rio Mardi Gras the only way to cover the event would
be with many photo albums. Uploading one pic at a time would be
slow and not up to the mark!
• iPad version - its quite awful working with the
dingy iPhone app on the bigger iPad screen!
• Features - polls, video, link attachment is shoddy
or not there at all!
