Facebook Opens Mentions App For All Verified Accounts



The social media giant has made important upgrades in the Mentions app, which is being taken as quite a positive step by the analysts.
Facebook has recently announced that it has decided to make the Mentions app available for all the accounts on the social media site which have been verified by the management.
This update is being considered as quite a big one coming from the media firm as the live streaming video service was only offered to some of the verified accounts and not all of them, which was first taken a little bearishly by the analysts who thought that in order to make things the same for all the celebrities and huge personalities, it was important for the firm to make things equal to everyone. This app was released by the giant last year which ended up getting quite popular among the celebrities who used the service to speak and communicate with their fans on the media site, making it easier for things to get through from one person to another on much easier levels. This step from Facebook business is also being taken as an initiative to stay upfront in the industry as many other prominent giants are focusing on video streaming and taking measures to bring positive changes to the whole idea. Mentions app also helped the important personalities with verified accounts to make videos especially for the fans and to also chat with them with the help of live streaming. On the other hand, the media app also worked in the favor of celebrities, important politicians and musicians who could keep an organized track on how things were going on between them and their fans which made it easier to bring both the parties on the same level. Analysts, moreover, are of the opinion that if only all the right steps are being taken by the social media giant it is quite possible that things take a positive turn into the streaming video industry for the giant. The app is currently reaching out more people than it was before and analysts think that with the help of the new audience, the firm can actually end up earning more revenue than before. Facebook also seems to be making attempts to leave behind all the other media or networking companies which have slowly been emerging on the tech horizon, and to make sure that things stay in control of the giant and the competition does not falter the media firm in any way. This app is also available to journalists now who can use it to exhibit the work that is being done by them.
