How do I Recover a lost Facebook App

I created a Facebook app ad then inadvertently removed all admins (including myself) from the app. Now I can't manage it. Our website is still referencing the app id, and we are still posting comments using it, so I know it still exists in the system. I don't want to create a new app and lose all those comments. Is there a way to recover the app or move the apps' comments to a new app id?

I've used this form to get access to Developer Operations staff that have been able to help me with similar requests. https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/1838825039720902

Also, if the app was deleted, it can often be restored via https://developers.facebook.com/appeal/

If an application is deleted there is no way to recover it. As far as removing all the admins from the application, this is not something the Admin console allows. You should have been presented with this message when doing so ... "Must specify one developer with admin permissions." ...
