Moving from FlowChat to Friender: A Facebook-First Transition Guide

Inventory the workflows you want to keep

Before making changes, record the parts of your current process that your team uses regularly:

• Contact segments and the labels your team actually uses
• Message templates and follow-up timing
• Active automations and the events that start or stop them
• The Facebook contacts and conversations that need attention now

Set up your Facebook-first workspace

Create a Friender account and connect the Chrome extension to sync your Facebook friends. The free plan includes Post Scheduler, Friend Disconnector, and Birthday Wisher. Paid plans add contact management, Messenger campaigns, automation, analytics, and AI tools; check the current plan page for the features you need.

• Sync Facebook contacts through Friender's supported extension flow
• Schedule the content you already plan to publish
• Organize priority conversations and follow-up in the plan that fits your team
• Recreate useful templates and automations after checking their triggers and timing

Move in four practical steps

First, save a reference copy of the FlowChat workflows and contact details you are permitted to retain. Check FlowChat's current export options for your plan.

Second, set up Friender and sync your Facebook friends with its Chrome extension. This creates the Facebook contact foundation; it does not transfer a FlowChat CSV or historical notes.

Third, manually recreate the labels, templates, and follow-up sequences that your team still needs. Test each trigger with your own account before using it with contacts.

Fourth, review active conversations in both tools during the transition and move any important context into Friender manually. Keep the reference copy until your team has checked its new workflow.

Choose the plan for your workflow

Friender has a permanent free plan. Paid plans start at $9 per month and add capabilities for outreach, relationship management, and automation. Compare the current plan details with your needs before changing subscriptions.

FlowChat's packages and prices can change, so use its current pricing page for a direct comparison.

A successful transition gives your team a clear Facebook contact workflow, useful templates, and reliable follow-up. Start with Friender's free plan, then add paid features when your process calls for them. For a feature-by-feature view, see the comparison page below.
