Facebook just launched a new tool that makes it easier than ever to delete your embarrassing old posts and photos — here’s how to use it (FB)

Date:

  • Facebook’s new Manage Activity tool allows you to delete old Facebook posts in batches instead of simply one by one.
  • You can delete old photos, remove tags, and hide posts from your timeline. 
  • You can’t delete a post created by another Facebook user — you’ll have to ask them privately to remove it.
  • The tool is another way that users can use to maintain privacy on the social platform.

You can now wipe out all of your embarrassing photos on Facebook in bulk instead of just one by one.

On Tuesday, the social networking giant unveiled a new function, Manage Activity, that allows you to delete or hide multiple old Facebook posts from your timeline. According to the Washington Post, Facebook said the new tool is in part a result of feedback from privacy advocates.

It’s also a product of the long time period so many users have spent on the platform over the years, amassing streams of perhaps awkward adolescent photos and old relationship posts. Some users may find it beneficial to delete some old content for professional purposes or for privacy reasons. 

The tool is only rolling out on the Facebook mobile app for now, with functionality planned for the desktop eventually.

Here’s how to use it.
