#1. Check How Much Time You Spend on Facebook

#2. Limit Your Facebook Usage

If you used the last trick to figure out how much time you’re spending on Facebook and were surprised to see a very high number there, well, rest easy because you can try and limit your usage of Facebook as well. There are a bunch of ways to do that actually. From the Facebook App: Where you see the time you’re spending on Facebook, there’s an option to set a reminder after which the app will inform you that you’ve spent enough time on Facebook. That can be handy, but it can also be easily bypassed. Facebook daily reminder Use Digital Wellbeing or Screen Time to Limit Facebook Usage:

If you want to implement a more strict time limit on your Facebook usage, you can use either Screen Time (if you’re on iOS), or Digital Wellbeing (if you’re on a supported Android Pie device) to do this. Both of these features allow users to set time limits on specific apps which should definitely help you limit your Facebook usage.

#3. Facebook Directory: Search Without an Account

Facebook Directory lets you do a cursory search of profiles without needing an account or logging in. It lets you search for people, groups, and pages, but again, you’re only going to see the results of folks who have not switched-off public discoverability. To start off, go to Facebook People Directory and solve a Captcha to prove you are not a robot. You could also go to the Facebook.com website and click on ‘People’ at the bottom to access the directory without logging in. Facebook Tip And Tricks You Should Know The list is sorted alphabetically and includes very few names on the first search page. You can, however, perform a search and look up a person’s Facebook profile. From my experience, the results returned by Facebook People Directory are not unlike those found in the general search results. It will display all of the publicly-available content, but much of it will be restricted to account holders.

Facebook Directory: Search Without an Account

While the search results are also limited by a user’s privacy settings, you can locate profiles and view some content using this method. That isn’t an ideal solution, I know, but at least it is an official route to search Facebook profiles without an account.

#4. Bulk Delete Third Party Apps from Your Account

A lot of websites, online games, and apps offer the ability to log in with your Facebook account, and while you may have done that a bunch of times without putting too much thought into it, if you’re worried about such apps stealing or misusing your data, well you can delete them from your account. What’s better is that you don’t have to delete every app individually; you can actually select all the third party apps you want to delete, and get rid of them in a single click. It’s pretty easy and you can check out our article on bulk deleting third party apps from a Facebook account if you need help.
