The app could make it simpler for celebrities to manage their Facebook account by viewing posts that mention them.

New Delhi: Facebook's Mentions app that made its debut last month is now available in India and over 40 other countries around the world. The Mentions app has been designed for Facebook-recognised or verified celebrities to help them manage their public figure pages. It makes it easy for public figures to talk with their fans and each other on the go.

The new app makes it simpler for celebrities to manage their Facebook account by viewing posts that mention them. The app allows 'actors, athletes, musicians and other influencers' to chat with their fans, reply to messages, take part in live chats and post updates - without seeing newsfeeds, quizzes and ads.

Facebook Mentions also shows a timeline of posts that refer to the particular user. Verified users can create new posts and also host live Question & Answer sessions within the app. Meant for iOS users, the app is available for download on Apple App store.
