Meta's recommendations and Lift's take: test it or skip it
Meta suggests changes for every ad account: a bigger budget, a wider audience, a different goal, new creative. Meta's recommendations lists them with Lift's take on each, Test it or Skip, with the reason and the account's own results from the last 7 days behind it.

Open it
You need the Owner, Admin or Manager role.
- Under Lift in the sidebar, select Business details.
- Pick Meta, then the Meta's recommendations tab.
- With several Meta ad accounts, pick one in Ad account. The list shows one account at a time, in its own currency, with nothing added across accounts.
What the tab shows
Lift reads Meta's suggestions each morning. A summary gives the day read, Meta's own score when Meta returns one ("Meta scores this account 72 out of 100."), and the count, such as "42 recommendations: 33 to test, 9 to skip."
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Meta's recommendation | Meta's title, its type and how much it covers, such as "2 ad sets". |
| Lift's take | Test it or Skip, with the kind of change: Bigger budget, New campaign or set-up, Delivery fix, Better tracking, Wider audience, Combine ad sets, Value goal, Goal change, Creative option or Other. |
| Why | Lift's reason, with Meta's own message under it when sent. |
| Spend, last 7 days | What the objects concerned spent, in the account's currency. "Not measured" when Lift could not tie the advice to spend, never zero. |
| Meta's points | The points Meta says the score gains if applied, such as +4.2. |
| Ads Manager | Open: the recommendation in Ads Manager. |
Filter with Lift's take. The list pages 25 rows at a time.
Test it means the suggestion fits what the account's results show: make the change in Ads Manager. Skip means Lift sees no reason for it in the results, and Why says what it saw. A skip is Lift's read of this account, not a ruling on Meta's advice everywhere.
When the list is empty
- Lift is checking Meta's recommendations for this account: Check again reads the page again.
- Meta's recommendations show here after the account's first morning read: not read yet.
- Meta had no recommendations for this account: Lift reads again each morning.
- Words blurred, with a notice: the recommendations open when your agreement with Tapper starts. Counts and each row's take stay visible. Your Tapper contact can open them.
