These immersive advertisements aim at engrossing the users in their ads and therefore this feature would block all the other content and would offer a full screen media page inside of Facebook. The users would not be directed to a separate mobile website to view the advertisement.
Facebook has built the ‘Canvas’ by collaborating with brands and agencies so as to achieve any objective by proving them a completely customizable space where they would be able to build multimedia stories. This product would help the advertisers to build better ads, effective brand and a refined product experience on mobile, by mixing videos, images, call-to-action and texts.
