Facebook is updating its Friends tab to show only content from friends, not recommended posts, as the first of several features this year aimed at recapturing the platform’s original joy.
Making Facebook More Social Again
Facebook has always been about connecting with friends. Over the years, we’ve introduced Groups, Video, Marketplace, and more, but the core magic of friendships faded. Now, we’re bringing it back with a fresh, exciting update!
Introducing the New Friends Tab
Starting today in the U.S. and Canada, the new Friends tab makes it easier than ever to see what your friends are up to. This dedicated space is all about your Facebook friends—no distractions, just real connections.
What You’ll Find in the Friends Tab
With the revamped Friends tab, you can now easily access:
✅ Friends’ Stories, Reels, and Posts
✅ Birthdays so you never miss a special day
✅ Friend Requests and People You May Know
How to Find & Pin the Friends Tab
The Friends tab appears in your navigation bar, but you can also pin it for quick access.
Steps to Pin the Friends Tab:
1️⃣ Click your profile picture in the Home feed.
2️⃣ Go to Settings & Privacy > Settings > Tab Bar.
3️⃣ Select Customize and pin Friends to your tab bar.
More Fun Features Coming Soon
Social media should be social! This is just the beginning—Facebook will be rolling out more exciting features throughout the year to make connecting with friends easier and more fun.
Stay tuned for more updates! 🚀
