After completing the previous steps, you’ll need to provide a clear and memorable display name for users to identify your app. If you have a Facebook Business account relevant to your app, you can link it for easier management. Otherwise, the platform creates a test account for you to experiment with Facebook’s features. Once you’ve made your selections, simply click “Create App” to move forward.
