Facebook adds ‘Quiet Mode’ for users to manage time spent on app

Facebook on Thursday rolled out a new “Quiet Mode” for its native mobile app for iOS and Android users.

The new feature will mute “most” push notifications from within the application. The app will remind users that the ‘Quiet Mode’ has been turned on every time they enter the app.

The company had updated users on the feature in a Covid Newsroom post, describing it as a way for users to manage their time during the pandemic.

“Whether it’s to help you focus on your family and friends, sleep without distraction or manage how you spend your time at home, we have tools that can help you find the right balance for how you use Facebook,” it had said.
