How to turn off notifications on Facebook? How to get rid of annoying notifications from facebook.
There are many opinions about this huge, social network. Most people think Facebook business network and uses it to promote his brand, company, business, and the like... In part, this is true, although there are also ordinary accounts of people who share something interesting and useful. Facebook is integrated into almost all news, business and popular sites. The “like” button is very popular in the blogosphere.
But today we will talk about settings, pleasant and unpleasant moments of the social network. I won’t touch on well-known things that are understandable in the interface, but let’s talk about moments that are not always noticeable to the eye.
Facebook Settings
Sometimes I wonder how many answers there are to the question “What are you thinking about?” Facebook stores, and how much photographic material... This is probably a very valuable archive for future journalists, but it is not available to us.
Facebook account archive
However, if you want to have an archive of all your profile information, then this is quite possible. IN general settings Click the “Download a Copy” link below.
IN Mailbox You will receive a link to the archive. Your photos will be divided into albums, where you will also find a list of all your friends. Those. you will receive your entire Facebook archive on your computer. If you wish, you can create an off-line photo album.
Switch between profile and page on Facebook.
The page is essentially the same profile, only for companies, famous personalities, etc. However, there is one difference, the pages have an administrator(s)
In the page settings section, there is a “Publication preference” checkbox. Remove it and you will be presented with the entry “In currently you use Facebook as (first name, last name). To switch to the user (your page name), click the “Account” menu at the top of any page.
And as you already understood, by unchecking the “tick” you also removed the administrator’s problem. Now you can distribute comments, likes, and share news from your personal account without any problems.
Annoying notifications
It happens that people you don’t want become friends on Facebook. Girls want to meet boys or restless boys approach girls for the same purpose. But you are in business and your interests are parallel.
Situations also occur with people you know well. There are simply reasons why you not only do not want to see them on your page, but also receive messages from them.
What to do? In User Settings, edit "Block". Here you should add accounts that you do not want by name of the owner or by his e-mail. This data is enough to prevent “friends” from the blacklist from reminding you of themselves.
Here you can immediately block invitations to groups, applications, events from excessively intrusive messages from your contact list.
Notifications from groups
Perhaps every user faces this problem. We are talking about notifications coming from groups. Any Facebook friend, without asking your consent, adds you to the group.
And according to one or another of its activities, it will update the news with enviable regularity. What else could be more “interesting” for you than communicating with his “accomplices” in a chat? The height of bliss! Is not it?
There is no limit on adding to groups on Facebook, and there is no confirmation of invitation. And here’s the situation - the topic of the group is interesting to you, but not enough to receive notifications about all the movements in it.
The exit is again in the settings. Select the “Notifications” setting, and in it “group news”. Manipulate the settings as you wish.
Facebook thinks it knows more than you. This applies not only to the automatic news feed, but also to notifications. For example, by default Facebook shows notifications from groups - or about what happened on this day a year or several years ago. We'll tell you how disable unnecessary notifications.
Groups
To disable notifications from unnecessary groups, you must first go to settings: click on the line in the upper right corner → “Settings”. Then select “Notifications” in the menu on the left and click on the “On Facebook” link. On the page that opens, click “Edit” opposite the “Group News” item - and there set for each group desired mode notifications.
Facebook offers four options: All Posts, Friends Posts, Trending, and Off. Everything except the “Current” option behaves predictably. If you turn on the unpredictable option, you will receive notifications about posts in groups that Facebook deems relevant to you, so enable it only at your own risk - there is a high risk of disappointment.
For iOS: Click on the three stripes from the main screen → “Settings” → “Account Settings” → “Notifications”. There you need to find the section “What notifications do you receive” and click “Group publications”. For each group, notifications are again configured separately.
For Android: Click on the three bars from the main screen → “Account Settings” → “Notifications”. Then - the same as on iOS.
"On this day"
The “On This Day” service sends daily notifications about what happened to you on Facebook a year or several years ago. This could be your post or someone else's post in which you are tagged. To turn off such notifications, you need to go to “Settings” → “Notifications” → “On Facebook” and select “Off” in the corresponding menu item. You can also turn off notifications on the page " On this day" In addition, there you can select dates that you do not want to remember.
If you turn off On This Day notifications on your computer, they won't work on your phone either.
Facebook notifies you about various events: messages, friend requests, likes and comments. This is useful, but there are several message delivery channels, and therefore they are sometimes duplicated. Personally, I prefer to receive notifications only when I visit the site myself. Therefore, I will show you how to leave notifications only on the Facebook site itself, and delete them in other places. Other places are SMS messages, email notifications and push notifications from the Facebook mobile application.
How to disable Facebook push notifications on your phone
Push notifications from applications are messages that pop up at the top of the phone with an icon specific application and content. For Facebook it is the letter “f”. They come if something concerning you happened on Facebook. We'll show you how to remove these notifications on Android device from Facebook apps Light. Or at least reduce their number. For other devices this is done in a similar way (although slight differences are possible)
Go to mobile app Facebook. Tap the icon on the right top corner. Tap Settings.
Tap " Push notifications" The screen will open Push settings notifications.
To turn everything off, tap Push Notifications - all notifications will be turned off.
If you want to leave some, then look at the list and leave only the necessary ones, for example, “messages”. And turn off all the others.
How to turn off notifications by email and SMS
This is easier to do from the browser, since the screen is larger.
Go to Settings -> Notifications. This can be done by going to link.
Remove Facebook notifications by email and SMS How to disable unnecessary notifications on the site itself
Now you won’t be bombarded with letters and SMS from Facebook, but that’s not all. Even if you go to the site yourself and receive information only from the site, you still receive a lot of unnecessary things: messages from uninteresting groups, invitations to events, messages about birthdays. All this can also be removed.
Click "edit" notifications on Facebook or go to
Facebook can not only be a time killer, but also cause a lot of trouble. How many times has it happened that your smartphone was simply bombarded with notifications from a social network that informed you that someone liked a stranger’s photo, someone posted links, or a bunch of similar useless information. This trend not only leads to information entropy, but also harms your smartphone's battery. You are really tired of this and you think for a long time about why notifications are still coming, because everything is disabled in the application settings. Here's what to do if you have this problem.
Applications
Installing applications or an invitation to join a game is the most annoying and frequent notification that you should refuse. Most Facebook apps send invitations automatically to your entire friends list, so you shouldn't ruin your relationship with the person on whose behalf these notifications are coming.
Open Facebook in your browser and click on the notifications icon on the right side of the page. It represents a globe. From the menu, select “application requests and actions.” Here you can configure the order in which you receive notifications from already installed applications, as well as those that you are asked to install.
Friends' actions
The complex moral question of whether or not to receive notifications about the actions of friends should be decided independently, but with technical side question we will help you. The mechanics of Facebook assume that if you once visited a page interesting person and liked his profile, you will see his posts in your feed. And if he is your friend, then you simply need to know about all his actions on the Internet. You can turn off notifications in the same section by simply clicking on the cross next to the news that you no longer want to see.
Push filter
To receive push notifications, you'll first need to turn them on in the settings on your phone or tablet. We will tell you how to set up push notifications in various Facebook clients.
