# How to connect Facebook Personal Profiles


### DesktopStart
### Facebook Personal Profiles

Facebook Personal Profiles have been around for as long as social media has existed. However, ever since the Cambridge Analytica scandal, Meta decided to remove the public API access for Facebook Profiles. 

Since then, users have been relying on push-notifications to post to Facebook Personal Profiles, and that is now possible with Publer! You will first have to connect your Profile to Publer, and after that, you will need to [download the Publer Mobile app](/en/article/the-publer-mobile-app-17a4cm3/) so you can share your posts to your Profile via push-notifications.
