Additionally- Facebook has adjusted the App creation process and removed the previous simpler option for 'other'. The new process now requires elements such as an App Icon and App Review- While iHouse does not preserve any platform data from Meta it is advised that you complete each section for yourself.

The last section 'Check that all requirements are met, then publish your app' is not required as we don't intend to publish the app to be found in various stores or platforms- we just need the functionality.
