Dear Olive,
ways to view your newsfeed. One is Top Stories, wherein Facebook applies it’s own algorithm to influence what you see in your newsfeed. The other is Most Recent, which disregards the other algorithm. From Home simply click or tap Newsfeed under your picture, and then click or tap Most Recent.Dear Facebook FRAN,
I keep getting invited to play games or view new apps on my iPhone’s Facebook app. It drives me crazy. How can I stop this?

Dear Betty,
It sounds like you are getting mobile push notifications, which are updates that come up even when you’re not using Facebook. To fix this, on your iPhone, you can tap Settings, tap Notifications, and then tap Facebook. From here you can disable Allow Notifications by sliding the white circle switch to the left.
In your Facebook app, you can select More in the bottom-right corner, which appears as three little lines. Tap Settings, tap Account Settings, and then tap Notifications. Next, tap Notifications from apps and deselect any apps that are checked.
— Hold Onto Sanity, FRAN
