Depending on the type of Shoelace ad and your ad’s objective, it may be shown in different places called “platform options” by Facebook. Icons on the Shoelace app will show you where each ad is placed.
Platform options help us show your ads where they’re likely to perform the best. Shoelace experts continuously optimize these options to make sure you’re reaching the people you care about in the places they spend their time.
Here is a list of platform options we use at Shoelace:
- Desktop (shown to people using Facebook on their desktops/laptops)
