Facebook launches a new Silent Mode for us to control the time we spend on the social network

In these days of confinement it is very important to know what we do well and what we do not do well in our day to day. Our habits have changed and although new technologies help us through these difficult times, we must know how to use them responsibly. Facebook wants to improve the time we spend on the social network, and for this they have just launched a new Silent mode that will help us control our time and prevent us from spending more time than we would like on Facebook itself. After the jump we will tell you more about this novelty of the social network ...

With this new mode we can better control the time we spend on the Facebook social network. A new mode very similar to Apple's Airtime that nIt will allow you to "restrict" our access to Facebook as well as being able to silence all the notifications we receive from the app From Facebook. It also affects our news feed, so even if we access Facebook, in addition to receiving a notice that we should be using that time for other tasks of our day to day, we can also configure a filter of all the news in our feed so that only the most important ones appear. This is what the guys from the social network tell us on their blog:

As we all adjust to new routines and stay home, setting limits for how you spend your time online can help. Whether it's to help you focus on your family and friends, sleep without distractions, or manage your time at home, we have tools that can help you find the right balance in how you use Facebook. We added Silent Mode, a new mode that silences most push notifications, and if you try to open Facebook while in Silent Mode, you will be reminded to reserve this time to limit your time in the app. We also added shortcuts to Notification Settings and News Preferences, so you can make the most of your time on Facebook by controlling the type of posts you see in your News, as well as the updates you receive.

The new Silent mode is now available although it is possible that you still do not have it available in your profiles, keep the application updated to receive this update as soon as you have it available. A new way to control the time we spend on the internet and start improving our routines at home.
