8 Must-Know Tips For Facebook Users

8 Must-Know
Tips For
Facebook Users

Several years ago Facebook has
overtaken the position of the most
popular social media website around
the world, and although new websites
like Instagram and Google+ keep
appearing, none of them have yet
reached the levels of popularity set
by Facebook. However, even if you’re
a years-long Facebook user, there is
a good chance that you don’t know a
lot of the cool features and tricks
it has to offer. Keep reading and
find out how to use Facebook like a
pro!

1. Save news for
later
How often have you browsed your
Facebook feed and come across
something really interesting that you
don’t have the time to read right
now? Earlier you had to either
bookmark the page, or just let it go,
missing the chance to learn something
new and cool. But now you don’t have
to miss anything. Whenever you see a
post that caught your attention,
press the small arrow button on the
right and click Save link. Then you
will be able to access the link from
the Saved section of your settings.
Never skip anything cool again!

2. Get rid of
annoying
notifications
Notifications are the single most
annoying thing for millions of
Facebook users. If you’ve ever had
to reject an invite to Candy Crush or
other popular game for the thousandth
time in a day, you know what we mean.
Now you can get rid of invites
altogether. Go to your Facebook app
on your smartphone, click Settings >
Account Settings > Notifications >
Mobile, and un-check the Application
Invites field. That’s it – game
invites will never bother you again.

3. Keep in trend
If your Facebook feed is limited to
your classmates, relatives and co-
workers, you risk missing out
important topics that are currently
talked about on Facebook. But don’t
worry – the current most important
events of the world are only a click
away. Open up your feed, go to the
right and find the Trending list.
There you’ll see topics and hashtags
that have risen to popularity in the
recent hours or days. Now you can
keep in touch with the world whenever
you need.

4. Stop videos from
playing
automatically
When Facebook made auto-play the
default setting for all users, some
people were outraged – auto-playing
videos are clearly disruptive and can
stand in a way of your normal
Facebook browsing. However, you can
easily turn the auto-play off. You
can use the settings of your mobile
Facebook app for that. Go to Settings
> Videos and Photos > and turn auto-
play off, so that loud or suddenly
loading videos never annoy you again.

5. Look at your
activity
Not many Facebook users know this,
but Facebook actually keeps a log of
everything you’ve ever liked,
shared, or commented on since you’ve
started using Facebook. If you want
to find an interesting article that
you clearly remember sharing a few
years ago, or a photo you’ve liked
last month, go to your Activity Log
and see everything you’ve ever
reacted to while using Facebook.
Never lose track of your activity
from now on!

6. Hide your
friends list
There are many reasons why you don’t
want every Facebook user to see a
list of your friends. Whatever reason
you choose, you can easily make your
Facebook friends list invisible for
anyone but yourself. To do it open
your complete friends list, press the
Manage icon, and go to Edit Privacy.
From there you can choose the
accessibility levels for anything,
including the friends list, for
groups of friends, your followers or
people you follow, or even anyone
viewing your profile.

7. Block people
altogether
If you’ve become victim to online
harassment, or simply want to limit
your communication with the certain
people, you can stop that person from
ever writing you or reaching out to
you in any other way using Facebook.
Whenever there is a person you want
to break off contact with, visit
their Facebook profile, click on the
three dots on the right in the cover
photo, and choose Block. That’s it –
you’ll never receive a message from
them again unless you unblock that
person.

8. Follow a
specific user
If you want to never miss updates
from a certain person that uses
Facebook, you can receive direct
notifications every time that person
posts something, uploads a picture or
updates their status. Visit that
user’s profile, click the Friends
button, and select the Get
Notifications option. Now you can be
the first one to know what is
happening to that particular user.
