Key Benefits
Everything you need to extract Facebook data efficiently
No Graph API Required
Meta's Graph API no longer exposes page follower lists to most developers. The extension reads the same data your browser already sees on facebook.com/{page}/followers — no app review, no tokens.
Auto-Scroll the Full List
The extension scrolls the followers list for you and captures every follower Facebook returns via its infinite-scroll pagination.
Clean Spreadsheet Output
One row per follower — name, profile URL, avatar, verified status — ready for pivot tables, joins, or a research notebook.
Real-time Preview
Watch followers stream into the sidebar as they load, so you know when the list has been fully captured.
Runs in Your Own Session
Scraping happens inside your logged-in Facebook tab. No passwords shared, no third-party server calling Facebook on your behalf.
Multiple Export Formats
Download as CSV, Excel (.xlsx), or JSON to fit any analysis stack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes — any Facebook page or public profile whose Followers list you can see when you visit facebook.com/{name}/followers in your own browser. If Facebook shows the list to you, the extension can export it. Pages that hide their follower count or restrict follower visibility will not surface a list.
Yes, as long as the profile owner has enabled 'Followers' (the setting that lets non-friends follow their public posts). Profiles that only allow friends won't have a public followers tab and can't be exported.
The extension keeps collecting for as long as Facebook keeps loading more entries. Very large pages (millions of followers) may take multiple runs — Facebook paginates the list roughly eight followers per scroll, so throughput is capped by their loading speed, not the extension.
Display name, profile URL, avatar image URL, verified status, entity type (User or Page), and the subtitle line Facebook shows under the name (bio, location, or mutual-friend count when present). No emails, no phone numbers — the followers list simply doesn't include them.
No. Meta's Graph API removed public access to page follower lists for most apps years ago. The extension avoids that problem entirely by reading the data your logged-in browser already loads on the /followers tab.
No notification is sent. The extension only reads what your browser is already displaying — the same view any visitor to /followers sees when they scroll.
Yes. The same scrape type covers both tabs — pick Followers for who follows the page, or Following for the accounts it follows. Same schema and export formats either way.
Exporting publicly viewable information for competitive research, brand analysis, or academic work is generally permitted in most jurisdictions, but you remain responsible for Facebook's Terms of Service and any privacy laws that apply to how you store and use the data (especially GDPR and CCPA for personal profiles).
