I have tried several times to be able to update my Facebook Shop with my Shopify site and no matter what I do, it will not sync and update. Everything in my shop is outdated by 6 months or more. Still contains items that I don't offer anymore. I have tried several times to add the "Pixel" and wither the instruction don't load or are not very helpful in the instructions that it gives.

Unable to create Facebbok and Instagram shops in the Commerce Manager and link them to my Shopify account only because my business is located in Ukraine! When other companies try their best to support people in Ukraine in their fight for freedom, Meta doesn't allow businesses from Ukraine to create Facebook or Instagram shops in their Commerce Manager and link their Shopify accounts using this app! That is such a shame!

I only want to use Instagram where I can add tags to my website, not the Facebook website that directs to my Shopify checkout. I don't really want to connect both Facebook and Instagram, surely you can connect whichever you please! Facebook always saying 'Request to review issues' ... there's nothing wrong with any of my products - hence I just uninstalled facebook shop. Besides Facebook business manager and Facebook page is so confusing!!

Hello,

Jack here from Shopify. Thanks for taking the time to submit your feedback. It is definitely possible to just use the Instagram feature of the app, but it does require linking some Facebook accounts. I will reach out to you over email to help you out.

What a farce. I have it set to only advertise in Canada yet I got right off the bat dozens of clicks (bots probably) in Ireland. Furthermore, I could not turn the ad off as it still said in review even though it was getting clicks??? How could that be??? I'm convinced they are fake. This app costed me a lot of money for nothing. Don't fall for this app. Considering it's made by Shopify, I'm seriously questioning why I have a shopify account.

Thank you for sharing this feedback about the Facebook Marketing app!

I'm sorry to hear you've gotten conflicting information from the app in Shopify and your Facebook profile, and I'd like to take a closer look at this. Our team works hard to improve our app functionality, so I’ve reached out to you via email. I hope to hear from you soon! - Lauren, Shopify Support

Needs improvement.
Good thing: Easy to install and Easy to use (no need to be an expert).
Bad thing: If you display multiple products, you can't select which pictures to show.
The app needs improvement in targeting and narrowing your audience. You can't target by gender, age or specific location. You can only target by Contry, interests and followers. If you need specific targeting, you have to log into facebook ad manager and edit the add you created from shopify.

Worst app ever!!! I was forced to delete and re-download because there was an apparent Facebook error that not even support could fix. I re-downloaded and now I'm unable to connect with my existing commerce account as well as activate my Instagram channel which is already eligible for instagram shopping. So frustrated! This app needs to be fixed! You would think a billion dollar company would have the toolset to make stuff like this seemless. Why is this so difficult?

Recently converted from the Facebook Store app to this one & I have been trying to add our existing instagram account to the Business Manager, but it's a dead link. The button choices are "ADD" or "CANCEL" & only cancel works. I've clicked on the IG page & every area in the box to see if that was the problem, but still nothing so all our new products are unable to be tagged on our instagram page. I suggest not to convert unless absolutely necessary. If support can email me, that would be greatly appreciated.

There is ZERO customer support on the Facebook end. I can appreciate that Shopify is at least trying to help, but after months of trying, I am still not able to connect my Shopify store with FB because of a request from years ago to connect my Etsy shop. Even though I no longer have my Etsy shop connected anywhere on within FB's black hole of a backend they call the Commerce Manager. They are monopolizing a service they cannot even support. It's total BS. I'm giving up on trying to connect FB and Insta, sorry Shopify... I really like you guys and would prefer to route my social media to my Shopify store, but FB is making the connection impossible to move forward with.

I received multiple orders in which the customers used Facebook to complete checkout. For these orders, I am receiving a message in shopify saying the order is on hold and I need to fulfill it via Facebook Commerce manager. Commerce manager says the order is on hold and I need to fulfill it in Shopify. It's a real mess and it is causing major frustration and wasted time. Not to mention, am I ever going to get paid for these orders? Seems no one at FB or Shopify has any answers. Looks like this problem has been going on for quite a while. See link below. https://community.shopify.com/c/shopify-discussions/facebook-orders-not-syncing-to-shopify-order-page/td-p/955390 Someone please help.

Hello we're running into issues integrating the app and our website. The error seems to be coming from ownership issues with our Facebook page. We don't have a single owner to the Facebook page and full permissions are given to the Admins. Facebook doesn't seem to have an option for a single personal page to be the account owner anymore. Some of the errors include: "You do not have admin permissions for the business Peter Coppola you are trying to use, so you cannot complete the flow. Please contact the business admin and obtain permission first." and "To transfer this Page, make sure you’re the admin of the selected Business Manager and the admin of the Business Manager that owns this Page." Again, we're the owners but the app is not recognizing that and will not let us move forward with integration.

I'd love to go over all the necessary permissions when connecting your Facebook assets to our app. I’ve sent an email to discuss this further, I look forward to your reply! - Jamilah, Shopify Support
