You have to ensure you&#8217;re logged in with the right profile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ads Manager can also be accessed through your Facebook profile, Meta Business Suite, and its app for mobile devices. Here are a few different ways to access Facebook Ads Manager depending on your device:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>How to access Ads Manager on Desktop<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ads Manager website<\/strong>: You can access Ads Manager directly by typing adsmanager.facebook.com into your web browser on your desktop.

This will open a drop-down menu. Find <strong>Ads Manager<\/strong> under the <strong>Professional<\/strong> section. Click on it and it will take you to the Ads Manager interface. Don\u2019t confuse <strong>Ads Manager<\/strong> from the menu with <strong>Ads<\/strong> under the Create section as the latter will instead initiate the process of creating a new Ad.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/8U_yhDwA1xq3XifWJJ19bwTiDrd2sb_yDPYuYlumhxOhAz0FyO1H1r4Dsb6aix2TlTi0SgxUHsNnYTkSJUqXloo1GkOX1IhqPXBJPlvoETkyoXKVwosOLZOchiXKd_gjubB9KyybMx8WtnI5QMHe35k\" alt=\"\" width=\"523\" height=\"658\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Through Meta Business Suite<\/strong>: You can also access Ads Manager through Meta Business Suite.

Normally, mobile browsers don&#8217;t support the complex design and functionalities of Ads manager. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s how to switch to desktop site to access ads manager on your mobile browser:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Android (Chrome)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>If you want to switch to desktop temporarily, tap the three-dot menu, then check the box next to &#8220;<strong>Desktop site<\/strong>&#8220;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you want a desktop browser permanently on your phone, go to Settings &gt; Site settings &gt; <strong>Desktop site<\/strong>, and turn the toggle on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>iOS (Safari)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tap the &#8220;aA&#8221; icon in the address bar. Then tap the three dot button on the bottom left and toggle on the \u201c<strong>Request Desktop Website<\/strong>\u201d option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Other Browsers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Opera: Tap the profile icon &gt; Settings &gt; Appearance &gt; Desktop site.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If a site doesn\u2019t switch, reducing your browser zoom in settings can sometimes force the desktop version to load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Keep in mind that this is not a user-friendly way to access Ads Manager. Because ads manager&#8217;s complexity in design and functionalities aren&#8217;t suitable for smaller screens. Here are alternative ways to find Facebook Ads Manager on mobile.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Through Facebook Ads Manager app<\/strong>: Facebook offers Ads Manager app for mobile device. Download the app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) so you can create, manage, and track the performance of your ads on-the-go.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Through Facebook App<\/strong>: Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) to open the menu on your Facebook mobile app and look for &#8220;Ads Manager&#8221;. This may vary depending on the app&#8217;s version and your account type.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you run ads frequently, bookmark the Ads Manager URL in your web browser so you can quickly navigate to Ads Manager without going through the Facebook homepage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Facebook Ads Manager login&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For Facebook Ads Manager login, you need to be signed into the correct Facebook account that has access to an active ad account. You do not need to create a separate account for Ads Manager. Once you\u2019re logged in to the correct profile, Ads Manager lets you create campaigns, set budgets, target audiences, track performance, and manage billing from its dashboard. If you can\u2019t find Ads Manager after logging in, it\u2019s often due to being on the wrong profile, missing permissions, account restrictions, or using the mobile app instead of a desktop browser. For full access, log in via a desktop browser at facebook.com\/adsmanager using the account that owns or is assigned to the ad account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Why can\u2019t I see Ads manager on Facebook&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re unable to see the Ads Manager on Facebook, there are a few common reasons why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>1. Wrong account or profile<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wrong-account-or-profile-1024x511.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11884\" width=\"479\" height=\"239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wrong-account-or-profile-1024x511.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wrong-account-or-profile-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wrong-account-or-profile.jpg 1090w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wrong-account-or-profile-300x150@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>You may be logged into your personal profile instead of the business account connected to Ads Manager. This confusion can occur if you have multiple profiles or business pages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to check your profile or business page you\u2019re logged in and switch to the right one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>2.&nbsp; No advertising permissions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wr-1024x425.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11885\" width=\"557\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wr-1024x425.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wr-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wr.jpg 1233w, https:\/\/www.privyr.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Wr-300x125@2x.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 557px) 100vw, 557px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re part of a Business Manager, you need the right permissions to access Ads Manager. It\u2019s usually admin or advertiser permissions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask the business account owner to grant you access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>3.

Here\u2019s a breakdown of each option:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/RhAqL0e4mpaKvzjRtIRUoGWVv87Qu4jjMykFz6ZBPICSueCT2_m-8FG9g5vz4ImGWpQgH6TzSB90mrNiDv-JGo6aWeOXv_0p24bPfA2-YGd2miRJOzLcBiKxDX-pcNpN1ucaFGNdbMasQ-LvyObzOwQ\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"453\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Awareness<\/strong>: The objective of Awareness is to generate interest in your product or service.
