Facebook Tests the Ability to Temporarily Turn Off Notifications

Understanding Features snooze requires more than a headline. The overview below breaks down the key facts, changes, and user impact.

Features Snooze Overview

At the time, Facebook is testing a feature called Snooze that allows users to temporarily "unfollow" a certain person, group or page within 24 hours, a week and even 30 days.

This feature is at the time only tested with a small number of users. It appears in the "." icon on the right side of the post. When you click on it and select "Unfollow or Snooze", you will pause to follow someone. This is a progressive feature besides the two "Unfollow" and "Hide post" features that are known to many users.

Facebook spokesman said: We are testing new features that help users control their News Feed and read the news they care about most.

Once again, Facebook gives users new features - helping you get rid of your annoying annoying friends without having to unfriend them forever.

Hopefully this feature of Facebook will soon be widely deployed to all users.
