Scam

I literally don’t understand why this is happening, but I had some hope for this app because it was the only one that seems to have reviews from real people saying that it at least worked for the minimum which is to keep track of a stupid giveaway, comment section, and it literally won’t even allow me to get started because I accidentally clicked a toggle button on the Facebook permission page and it said I couldn’t do anything because I accidentally clicked at toggle. I went back, tried to redo it and it wouldn’t work the button wouldn’t work the toggle would not switch back. What the heck? Why is there so many of these apps to do the same thing and why do none of them work? I have tried like 10 tonight and absolutely none of them work they are all scammed by stupid Indians probably

They want to access all your fb personal data to let you pick a winner

They want to access all your fb personal data to let you pick a winner

Response from developer

Hello. This is a Meta (Instagram/Facebook) requirements. Instagram requires connecting professional (business/creator) accounts to a Facebook page to be accessible through the Instagram API. See here from Instagram's documentation: "Instagram Professional accounts must be connected to a Facebook Page before their data can be accessed through the API. Once connected, any Facebook User who is able to perform Tasks on that Page can grant your app an access token, which can then be used in API requests." Source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/overview#pages Unfortunately, we don't control the requirements Facebook/Instagram enforces for authentication.

I wasnt able to log in since last night. They asked me to sign in with my facebook, the problem is my business instagram has no facebook. So i tried link with my personal one regardless. But what happened is, it hang there loading with black screen 😩

Response from developer

Hello. I understand your frustration, how Instagram/Facebook access works is complicated. But the issue you're encountering is with Instagram/Facebook authentication, but with the app. Instagram requires connecting professional (business/creator) accounts to a Facebook page to be accessible through the Instagram API. This isn't our requirement, but Instagram's. See here from Instagram's documentation: "Instagram Professional accounts must be connected to a Facebook Page before their data can be accessed through the API. Once connected, any Facebook User who is able to perform Tasks on that Page can grant your app an access token, which can then be used in API requests." Source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/overview#pages Sorry for the frustration, but unfortunately, we don't control the requirements Facebook/Instagram enforces for authentication.

Fake entry?

I just started a giveaway, linked the post and came back to the app. It says one entry, but there is no comment in the post! How can this be? Will update my review when this giveaway comes to a close.

Response from developer

Hello. We use the Instagram API, so the only entries we record are those that come directly from Instagram. If there was an entry but no comment, then it's possible the user deleted their comment, which will get updated once a winner is picked.

Seriously best app for giveaways

By far the easiest and best app for giveaways doesn’t make you immediately fill out your card info before giving you the winners.

Big fan!!

Response from developer

Thank you very much, we're so happy you liked it!
