Everyone Can See Your Facebook Stories, and We Mean EVERYONE!
Facebook Stories! A super original idea! Very different to Snapchat and Instagram.
Facebook stories allows you to share pics/videos directly to people that will disappear after 10 seconds OR you can upload pictures/video to your story for up to 24 hours.
Okay so Facebook is basically the same concept as Snapchat and Instagram but the only difference is how many people can see your story!
Snapchat and Instagram lets you control who can see your stories while about 1.74 billion active Facebook mobile users can currently see yours!
Yeah!
Facebook doesn't give us any true way to pick and choose who views our Stories. Even when you change your privacy settings for Posts to share with "Only Me," all your friends can still see the Stories you share.
Here are some ways to solve this!
You can easily share your stories with individual friends and groups with the Direct option. It's simple: just snap your pic or take a funny video, throw on a filter or two, smash the paper airplane Direct logo, and choose exactly to whom you want to DM your masterpiece.
You can also share your Story as a post, where you'll be able to pinpoint exactly who will be able to see your next great Power Ranger selfie vid. Just select the "post" option and refine your audience by choosing from the menu.
Now while this takes away from the point of your stories, until Facebook finds away to combat this, those are your options!
