Facebook is a feature-heavy app. If you aren’t customizing your experience on the social network even a little bit, you’re definitely missing out.
If you’re looking for more privacy or you just want your Facebook interface to switch to superhero mode, there are tricks for it all.
Here are 13 good Facebook tricks that you can use right now to upgrade your Facebook experience.
1. Remove Your Last Name from Your Facebook Profile
Let’s start with the most involved trick.
If you want a bit more privacy on Facebook (i.e., keep random people from looking you up and creeping on your profile!), this trick could help.
Technically, Facebook requires every user to submit their first and last name when initially creating an account for security reasons.
Once your account is created, though, you can bypass this so only your first name displays on your profile and across Facebook.
2. Change Your Display Language to ‘Pirate’
While we’re talking about language settings, did you know Facebook has a “Pirate” option?
3. Mute Friends in Your Feed Who Post Too Much
So, you have one of those friends who seems to post whenever the mood strikes. All. The. Time.
4. Make Your Posts Fancier
A quick way to make your Facebook posts a little more fancy-pants is to use the Cool Fancy Text Generator. Use it to write titles, short blurbs, or make words stand out.
5. Visit Your Facebook Townhall
If you would like to get more involved with local politics, visit your Facebook Townhall to find and follow your local government services and representatives.
You can also quickly contact them to get in touch about an issue.
6. Turn Off Birthday Notifications
By default, Facebook notifies you in the morning when it’s one of your friends’ birthdays. Of course, if you have a big list of friends, this can get annoying.
7. Download a Copy of All Your Facebook Data
Yes, all of it.
Posts and photos you’ve created or shared.
Comments you’ve posted.
Messages you’ve sent and received.
Everything you have ever liked or reacted to.
Your list of followers and who you’re following.
Even Pokes you’ve given and received (does anybody do those anymore?) are all stored on Facebook.
If you want a copy of the information from one, a few, or all of these categories, it’s simple:
Go to Settings >> Your Facebook Information >> Download Your Information.
