Understanding the App

The Lead Capture app has been available for some time and does not require Ad Studio to function. In fact, it was never a part of Ad Studio, and its functionality has always been available as a separate app.

Addressing Concerns

Some users have expressed concerns about the app’s low review rating, but it’s worth noting that many of the negative reviews were due to a bug that has since been resolved. Additionally, the app’s functionality has not changed, and it continues to be a reliable option for capturing leads from Facebook.

The low review rating of the Lead Capture app is due to a historical bug that has been resolved, and not a reflection of the app’s current functionality.
