Why do I get so few notifications on Facebook?
Most Facebook notifications tend to be a result of your own interactions with the site. You get notifications because you comment on posts, join groups or follow pages. The less you do of these things, the fewer notifications you’ll receive. Screen time apps can help limit your Facebook time so you’re less tempted to idly browse.
How do I turn off Facebook notifications on my phone?
Just uninstall the Facebook app and visit Facebook.com through your phone’s browser instead. You can even add a shortcut to the site from your home screen so it’s just as easy as launching the app. This way, you’ll see Facebook notifications only when you want to, rather than getting pestered throughout the day.
How many Facebook notifications do you get per day?
In other words, while my phone says I get 30 to 50 notifications per day, the real count is likely much higher. And that’s just push notifications. Facebook sometimes chooses which notifications deserve your immediate attention, leaving others for the next time you open the app.
What can you do with Facebook on your phone?
Facebook can send emails, text messages or push notifications to your phone. If you’d prefer to get an email about birthdays rather than an obnoxious buzz on your phone first thing in the morning, you can change that here. With Apple’s latest mobile software update, we can decide whether apps monitor and share our activities with others.
