Facebook Update Gives Users More Control - http://clapway.com/2015/07/09/facebook-update-gives-users-more-control876/

NEW FACEBOOK UPDATE GIVES USERS MORE CONTROL


One of the newest features of Facebook’s latest round of updates allows users to control what updates go to the top of their news feed.

A major complaint from Facebook users is that they don’t have much, or enough, control over what shows up in their news feeds, application screen or main page. The computer algorithm of Facebook looks at thousands of signals, and gives you what it thinks you want to see based on the individuals you interact with or disregard, and the kinds of posts you’ve enjoyed in the past.


NEW ALGORITHM GIVES YOU ALL THE POWER


Facebook announced another set of features that will give everybody more control over what he or she sees on their newsfeed. Essentially, the Facebook update is giving you the ability to reprogram the algorithm calculations. The most critical feature gives you the ability to control what pages and friends updates go to the top of your feed.

In a report by the Facebook newsfeed management team, this is to help you quickly see the things that matter to you the most. To help you choose who to put on the “see first” list, Facebook now offers a screen that reveals to you the top individuals, pages, and groups that you have gone to in the course of the most recent week. This information is then organized into how much you like and comment on them in the newsfeed.

Before the new Facebook update, the company had offered the alternative to unfollow your friends or pages, which hides these posts from your feed. Now, it will give you a chance to draw up a single list of everybody that you have unfollowed and allow you to begin following them once more. This will make it easier to ignore a friend who is posting a photo or posts that you don’t care for, and afterward reverse the unfollow later.


facebook update COMING TO ANDROID AND WEB SOON


At first, just users on the iPad or iPhone application versions of Facebook had the capacity get these features, however the company has now realized that everybody is eager for the same customized experience. These features are coming out soon for the web and Android users.

Facebook Messenger App 86’ing Needing Facebook Account as Requirement - http://clapway.com/2015/06/24/facebook-messenger-app-86ing-needing-facebook-account-as-a-requirement988/

It is no secret, especially to Facebook and Facebook Messenger App users, that the latter app was only accessible for use as long as the person had an account, with the former.


Well, the good news is that this no longer applies. Starting today, the Facebook Messenger App no longer requires users to have a Facebook account in order to gain access.


Why the change in making Facebook Messenger App a standalone?


With the Facebook Messenger App becoming the go-to for touching bases, as opposed to e-mail and phone alongside WhatsApp Messenger, Facebook is attempting to up the ante by giving full access to everyone. This includes individuals who either are not familiar with Facebook, are not interested in signing up for Facebook, or deactivated their account. These circumstances may be at play for a wide range of people, but now it should not stop them from enjoying the messaging app as well. Vice president of Facebook’s messaging products’ David Marcus states regarding the ever-expansive opportunities and benefits, “We all have examples of people in our lives who are not on Facebook but would want to have the Messenger experience. It’s really important that we can serve those people and enable them to try out Messenger for themselves.” Marcus wants to make sure that everyone, Facebook user or not, gets a chance to have the Facebook Messenger experience, as well as benefit from it.


Facebook’s gain in making the Facebook Messenger App separate


By granting everyone access to the Facebook Messenger App, it will become even less restrictive, resulting in Facebook as a social media platform benefitting even more in terms of popularity and revenue. Right now, Facebook Messenger App is competing with other messaging app contenders who also want to reign within that market. As of now, nothing else is planned when it comes to Facebook’s next step in one-upping their competition. However, that does not mean that something else isn’t in store on their end. The Facebook Messenger App is thriving and then some independently, possibly even before the separation. Reports say that, “It’s now 700 million strong, neck-in-neck with WhatsApp, which Facebook bought for $22 billion in 2014.”
