5 settings that must be changed in the Facebook application on the phone
We spend a large part of our daily time on the Facebook application for several reasons, as it is the virtual place that combines all aspects of the vast digital world from science and knowledge to entertainment and entertainment, and Facebook is often used by phone more than using it through a computer. Therefore, we are always interested in publishing explanations about this giant application on an ongoing basis. We previously shared with you many tricks in this context, but there is definitely more. For an application of this importance, there must be a guide that highlights the subtleties in it and due to the huge amount of settings in this application You may miss some special settings that greatly improve the experience of use, continue reading with us to learn about 5 very useful settings in the Facebook application that you may have to change.
1: Enable open links externally
Of course, every day you come across a lot of external links while browsing Facebook. Fortunately, the application allows you to open those links directly with one click on the link. Well, it is a good feature, but the web browser built into Facebook does not have the most important advantages found in regular browsers.
Instead of opening the link and copying it and heading to your favorite browser and opening it again, all he has to do is head to the side menu of the Facebook app and then go to the options menu and select “Settings and privacy” then scroll to the bottom of the list and select “Media and contacts”. Enable "Open links externally" and this will make all links open in your default browser directly.
2: Enable automatic translation of posts
Foreign content is no less important than Arabic content on social media, but if the language is an obstacle to your follow-up of foreign content and you are tired of copying texts and going to an external translator for translation and reading, activate this setting immediately, which allows you to simultaneous translation of all publications written in the language In English, through the side menu of the application, then from the “Settings and privacy” tab, choose “Settings” and then click on “Translation posts” and then select the language you want to translate the posts to, and it certainly does not have to be from English to Arabic You can choose the languages you want.
3: Saving the application's consumption of the Internet
It ranges to everyone’s mind when they hear the term “saving data” that what is meant is to provide internet data when roaming, but due to the limited internet packages in most Arab countries, we mean providing internet connection data, whatever your means of communication. And since all we see on Facebook is a series of photos and videos, it makes a lot of sense to put limits on the automatic resolution of the latter.
All that is required is to go to the side menu of the application, from it choose the “Settings and privacy” tab, then select “Settings” scroll down and select “Media and contacts” and deactivate the download videos in high quality And also the option to download photos in high resolution “Download photos in high resolution” > in addition to stopping the automatic playback of videos through the last option in the previous menu, then pressing Never play videos automatically.
4: Customize the Shortcut Bar
You may not be interested in all the shortcuts in the Facebook application shortcut bar and wish you could get rid of some of them permanently. And deactivate the shortcuts that you do not want to be in the bar at the bottom, and if you need them one day, all you have to do is repeat the previous steps and activate the shortcuts again.
5: Adding hobbies and distinctive elements to the profile
Personally, I like this feature because it improves the appearance of the profile in general and reduces the stalemate that we are used to a lot, in addition to that it improves the chances of you getting to know people of the same hobbies and skills as you, and to activate the latter, go to your profile and then click on the “Modify general details” button. Edit general details" Then scroll down a bit and you will find the option to "Add hobbies", click on it and enjoy adding and arranging your favorite hobby.
As for the “Featured Items” you will find the option to add under the option to add hobbies and the idea of the latter is to add pictures under your personal picture with the same appearance as the story, but the difference is that it will never disappear and will remain until you remove it yourself.
