How Can I Unsubscribe From SMS on Facebook?

Facebook SMS notifications can accumulate quickly. Unscubscribing is easy.

Facebook lets you interact with friends online in numerous ways, but it also integrates with your cell phone by sending you SMS notifications anytime someone posts to your Wall, sends you a message, comments on something you have "liked," pokes you, tags you in a photo and myriad other prompts. Although fully customizable, these SMS subscriptions can become an avalanche of data especially for those with more than 100 Facebook friends. You can unsubscribe from specific profiles and Pages -- or from SMS notifications altogether -- through your Facebook account settings.
