Folksy Shop App for Facebook Page & smartphones?

Hi there, I was wondering if we were any closer to having a Folksy Tab on our Facebook Pages?
I was gutted when that disappeared? And have you got a APP for Iphones in the offing too?
Yours Chloe @ Hatastic!

To integrate your Facebook page and your Folksy shop, you can use our ‘data feed page’ option to create a catalogue for your Folksy shop on Facebook.

Just add .rss to your whole shop URL (eg https://folksy.com/shops/claregetscrafty.rss) and then follow the instructions here https://www.facebook.com/business/help/384041892421495?id=725943027795860

That should enable you to create a catalogue from your Folksy shop that updates automatically when you add a new listing or something sells out.

You can also use our new Sell on Folksy app to create and edit listings on your phone or tablet. More details here – https://blog.folksy.com/2021/03/18/folksy-sellers-app

    It appears that a sellers have been asking for a Folksy app since 2016. I am curious as to why this still has not been created and if there is an ETA on one?

    What about crowdfunding the development of an app??

    Just joined Folksy and very disappointed to discovery there is no Facebook app - any news if and when there will be one.

    I would definitely list more items if there was an app - I only work on my phone as I'm always on the move and an app would be so helpful!

    Yes please to a folksy app, I would be on here a lot more!

    We need a folksy app. We need a folksy app. We need a folksy app.

    I have both Etsy apps and would find that I would probably sell on Folksy more if there was an app for sellers (and for buyers too). I would prefer to use Folksy as they are UK based and help support them, but it does make it difficult without an app. Plus, they are getting left behind tech wise!!!

    I can't actually believe this was requested back in 2012 (or potentially earlier?) and yet still nothing. Is this even a pipeline project for Folksy? Or if not, can there be a statement about why not?

    Is there any news on an App for Facebook? I am seriously thinking of opening an account on 'Wow Thank You' as they have an App and closing my Folksy Account.

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can we have an App......you lag behind Etsy and Ebay badly on this. I use a smartphone most of the time and not only does an App give you direct access to Folksy, but as a seller it means sales, messages and listing notifications can be notified and responded to super fast. This is also great fro the buyer as it means they get even better service.....I think you will find your revenue sky rocket and I think Folksy will start to become a real destination site. I love selling on here as it is so friendly ; get this sorted and I also think you'll get more sellers as well as buyers. Magsx

    I find that having a platform like Facebook helps enormously to connect with the public and the customers. Having it even more integrated with an app to access the shop immediately, would be ideal!

    We definitely need apps for both customers and sellers for this site. The etsy ones are so handy. Not to mention the longer folksy goes without this software the traffic will start going to other more easily accessible sites instead

    Would love to have an app and a tab on my facebook page
