Facebook / Instagram app name review

Hi Everyone,

I would like to start developing my new app idea, which uses Graph API, but I just found out that before I can switch my app to Live Mode I must complete the App Review process.

There is all kind of restrictions, I guess, all of them are just fine except one.
It says:

  • Your app is using Facebook's Company Brand in a way that is not permitted
  • be named in a way that may be confused for Facebook or any of our subsidiaries (for example, app names such ash “FB Friend Smash”, “FVideo”, or “Friend Smash - Best FB Game” will all be rejected)

source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/review/rejection-results-guide

The problem is, my app name and domain name uses keyword gram as a suffix, here is an example: lologram.

Do you think guys, is it a valid reason to reject my app?

Thanks a lot

    Doesn't matter the reason, it's their rules and you have to comply the rules as everyone else in order to get things accepted. Easy as that.

      I don't know if I've asked wrong, but they didn't reject my app yet. I didn't send my app for review at all.

      I'm asking if somebody from here has experience with FB app reviews. If they consider gram as a rule violation.

      Anyway, it's better to try it than ask questions. Thanks for the reply :)
