New Delhi: To make it easier for its users to access the platform’s tools and functions, the social media giant Facebook has redesigned its settings page. “Whether it’s managing the ads people see, adjusting sharing settings, or curating an audience for posts, people shouldn’t have to think about where to start. So we reduced the number of categories and renamed them to better suit people’s mental models, “wrote Facebook in an official blog post.
Mashable India reported that the Facebook settings page is now divided into six broad categories, each of which gives access to a related set of settings. The categories are: Account, Settings, Audience and Visibility, Permissions, Your Information, and Community Standards and Legal Guidelines.
Facebook has also moved several autonomous settings so that they stand next to related settings. For example, the News Feed setting that previously had its own smaller category is now listed under Settings, grouped with similar settings.
The settings search function, the Privacy Settings category, has also been improved. There’s also a newly added link to the privacy check, at the top of the Settings landing page. Also read: Xiaomi plunges Samsung into the largest smartphone brand for the first time
