The world’s most popular social media platform has given a lot of features to facilitate users on Facebook, but many of them use very few users. One of these features is – Friends list Actually, you also get the option of putting those on Facebook in their list of friends, to put them in separate lists, and there is also a big advantage. In this way, users can create lists like Family, Close Friends or College Friends, instead of keeping them all together in their Facebook Friends list, and according to them, friends and family members can keep them separate in the list.
There is a question in your mind that why do we do this or how will it benefit from making separate lists? Before answering, understand some important things. Often you do not upload any photo on Facebook because they do not want to share it with family. Or do not share any pictures with everyone because they can only be shared with family. Likewise, sometimes a photograph of a college is meant to mean backgrounds only to friends of college and others can not understand. In this case, you would only want to share photos with college friends.
When you share any post on Facebook, you get the option of privacy, and the special thing is that you will be able to select or unselect a list directly here. In this way, once you create a list, you will be able to share a photo, post or activity with only family or only close friends, and the rest will not be able to see it. Is not it great? So now you will not have to hide any photos from fear that family members may not be seen or any family photos should not be seen by friends. By going to the list, you can also see different people what people in it have posted or shared. By following these steps, you can create separate lists,
Make such list
