This means you can not only know which admin posted, but also follow up on who is dealing and replying to comments.

3. Edit Posts

It happens to all of us. You schedule a post from the office, just before you leave and then suddenly realize there is a typo in the copy. Of course, you could always go back to the office or run to the nearest computer. But being able to edit a post directly from the iPhone app is great news, no?

Now you can edit #Facebook posts right from the iOS Pages Manager app.

4. Reply Directly To People With Threaded Comments

Keeping logic among comments on a Facebook post can become difficult sometimes. This is the main reason why Facebook introduced “Reply” a few month back. Well now, this feature is also available from your iOS app.

To reply to a specific comment, just scroll down to it and hit “reply”. Thanks to threaded comments, the discussion will make more sense and the user you are replying to will be notified, increasing the chance of further engagement.
