Hello and welcome to VisiHow. This is a tutorial on how to exclude some friends from seeing a post you've published to all of your friends in Facebook on an HTC One M8.

1. 1
   To begin, turn the phone on by pressing the power button located on top of the phone

   Once the phone has been unlocked we will see the home screen, and at the bottom we will see 5 icons. We now need to open the application folder.

   We can do that by tapping the icon in the middle, at the bottom of the screen

   Now that the folder has been opened, we need to find and tap the Facebook application

   .

   There is a Facebook icon, which is a blue background with a white "f" inside, and underneath it says the word "Facebook". When we're publishing our posts, we can exclude some of our friends from seeing the post. This just allows us to control exactly who sees it if we don't want to make someone angry or jealous that we know will cause problems. We still want to publish anyway, and exclude people from seeing the post.

8. 8
   Tap on "Friends except"

   .

   Here we will see a list of all of our friends. In this example, we only have one friend, but you will see your whole friends list and there will be a circle next to each name.

9. 9
   All we need to do is press down on the circle

   .

   This will make the circle red like a stop sign, which means that these people will not see this individual post. This is isn't about posts in the future or posts in the past, this is just for this individual post. We need to do this every post if we want to exclude someone permanently or from a certain type of posts that we publish. Now the person has been added to the list and if we post something, this friend will not see the post.

    If we want to take them off this list, just press down on the circle again until it's empty, and they will be off the list

    .
