I created a facebook instant app with a chatbot. The chatbot works fine. The chatbot should launch a facebook instant game. This works fine on mobile phones, but after assigning the game to the page, it is no longer possible to chat with the page on desktop devices. The play button is overlapping the chatbox and you can not send messages. Is it possible to remove the play button?
Instant Games bots have only a play button by default. You can override the default experience by modifying the persistent menu. To enable users to communicate with the bot, specifically look into composer_input_disabled.

I recently published a game on Facebook games and got approved but when check the game, I do not have the "PLAY NOW" button. All I have is "SEND TO MOBILE".
I am wondering what I missed and why mine is not showing the "PLAY NOW" button like this:
What exactly users get shown, depends on the device they are using, and the app settings.
Canvas is not available on mobile, so users on those platforms will get send to the appropriate app store instead, if your app is available for those.
On mobile devices, I can force facebook to show the desktop main screen with
https://www.facebook.com/home.php
on the other hand there are specific pages like this famous one
https://www.facebook.com/4/
Is there a way to combine those and showing a specific facebook page on a mobile device (iPhone) in desktop mode? Something like
https://www.facebook.com/home.php?showme=/4/
or
https://www.facebook.com/4/?mode=desktop
The last two urls don't work. They're here to illistrate what I'm searching for.
Yes. I'm aware that Safari on iOS allows the user to force Safari to show the Desktop Sit and this works with facebook. But I'm looking for a solution without forcing the user doing this each time.
How do I make my mobile game send a request that is shown as notification like in Candy Crush Saga game.
I went through this App requests successful, but no notification shown but can't find the solution. I don't know what to put in my canvas URL.
GAME is developed in Unity3d.
Solved ..... Your mobile app must pe on facebook (i.e on facebook appcenter ) ..then only it will be shown as notification
I faced the similar issue .. there is something that need to be done on FB App settings->Basic, Add another platform "Facebook Canvas". This solved the issue
The canvas apps means- the apps displayed inside facebook.com.
I think you are having the mobile app not a canvas app, so Notification API, which is still in beta do not supports the notification in mobile. Acc to doc-
Currently, only apps on Facebook.com can use App Notifications. Notifications are only surfaced on the desktop version of Facebook.com
So instead of notifications API, you can use different kind of Requests- whichever is more significant in your case.
