How to make my facebook app show news feed chronologically

The eternal quest for a chronological Facebook news feed!

Unfortunately, Facebook's algorithm prioritizes showing you the most relevant and engaging content, rather than strictly chronological order. However, there are a few workarounds to help you see your news feed in a more chronological order:

Method 1: Use the "Most Recent" view

  1. Open your Facebook app and go to your news feed.
  2. Tap the three horizontal lines () on the top right corner of the screen.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "News Feed Preferences" section.
  5. Tap "Most Recent" instead of "Top Stories" or "Most Relevant".

This will show you the most recent posts from your friends and pages you follow, in the order they were posted. Keep in mind that this view might not be as engaging as the default algorithm-driven feed, as it won't prioritize the most popular or relevant content.

Method 2: Use a third-party browser extension or app

There are several browser extensions and apps available that can help you view your Facebook news feed in chronological order. Here are a few options:

Please note that using third-party extensions or apps may not be officially supported by Facebook, and there's a risk of compatibility issues or data security concerns.

Method 3: Use Facebook's "On This Day" feature

Facebook's "On This Day" feature shows you posts from your friends and pages you follow that were posted on the same day in previous years. While not exactly chronological, this feature can give you a sense of what you might have missed in the past.

  1. Open your Facebook app and go to your news feed.
  2. Tap the three horizontal lines () on the top right corner of the screen.
  3. Select "On This Day" from the dropdown menu.

Keep in mind that these methods may not completely eliminate the algorithmic filtering, but they can help you see your news feed in a more chronological order.
