some cases you may want to delete the post, but this is easily done
by pressing the small arrow at the top-right of the post and then
selecting the Delete option. Samsung Galaxy users can also explore
their friend’s timeline by selecting their name from the Friends list.

Manage media on
your account
As well as being a great place for posting
statuses and chatting with friends,
Facebook has a comprehensive suite of
features for those who want to share and
embed media files on their timelines.
While posting a status, users can attach
photos to it, as well as designate these
photos to a specific album. It’s also
possible to load any number of photos
to your account and create a virtual
library of them. Similarly, users can record
and upload videos to their account, which automatically embed
themselves on to the timeline for other people to watch and enjoy.


Take control of app settings
Samsung Galaxy users have a plethora of settings waiting for them
in the Facebook app. The most important ones link to your privacy
and how much of your posted content you want others to see.
You can set restraints on some content, or even make individual
posts available to people outside of your friends. Dig a little
deeper and you’ll find settings that enable you to block specific
users from seeing content and even look through sync options to
automatically add photos and videos to your Facebook account.
