How Do I Filter My Facebook News Feed?

The newest updates on your news feed appear at the top.

Your Facebook news feed keeps you up to date on your friends' most recent activity on the social networking site. Whenever a friend posts a new status update, checks in to a business using Facebook mobile or answers a poll, a new story is created in real time. Normally all types of updates are listed in your news feed, but filters allow you to view only one type of activity at a time. Filtering your news feed is temporary; if you navigate away from the news feed and come back, it is restored to its normal setting.

Instructions

1. Point your browser to the Facebook home page, which automatically opens when you log in to your account. If you are on another Facebook screen, click the "Facebook" logo in the top-left corner of the screen to return to the home page.

2. Click on the "Most Recent" link just above the news feed.

3. Select a filter from the drop-down menu, such as "Status Updates" or "Photos" to view only one type of item on the news feed.

4. Return to the regular news feed by opening the menu and selecting "Most Recent" from the menu.
