With the app, creators can easily create original video, go live with exclusive features, and connect with their community on Facebook — all from their pocket.

Facebook’s Creator app that acts as a one stop shop for creators of all kinds, to help take their passions to the next level is now globally rolling to iOS users, and will come soon to Android.

With the app, creators can easily create original video, go live with exclusive features, and connect with their community on Facebook — all from their pocket.

Facebook has also announced new features for creators including:

Live Creative Kit: Access exclusive tools that make it easy to create live broadcasts with a personalized and fun feel. Creators can add intros as openers to their live broadcasts, outros that conclude them, custom live stickers that viewers can use to interact, and graphic frames to create a consistent brand.

Community Tab: Connect with fans and collaborators with a unified inbox, which centralizes comments from Facebook and Instagram, and messages from Messenger.

Camera and Stories: Use fun camera effects and frames and easily crosspost content to other platforms. Creators can also access Facebook Stories to engage with their fans.

Insights: Easily access metrics to inform content creation, including analytics about your Page, videos and fans.

If you’re a creator making a show for Watch, you can also log into the app as your Show Page to access the features above. We’re currently testing shows with a set of creators and plan to roll out more broadly in the future.

Facebook has also introduced two initiatives -- an app that helps creators manage their presence on Facebook and a central destination where creators can get the resources they need to improve and grow.

The creator’s app is open to individuals on Pages or profiles, and you will be able to download it in the Apple App Store today.  Facebook for Creators is a new website where creators can find resources and tips on how to create great videos, connect with fans, and grow on Facebook.

If you’re a creator, with Facebook for Creators you can: learn skills and techniques to make your content shine, find answers to common creator-specific questions and join the community to be considered for early access to new features and tool.
