Once the phone has been unlocked, we will see the home screen, and at the bottom we will see several icons
.
It is one of these icons that we now need to access, as we need to open up the Applications folder.

To do that, we can use the icon locate at the bottom of the home screen and in the middle

Press down on that icon, and it will open the "Apps" folder
.

In this folder, we now need to find the "Facebook" application

It has the "Facebook" icon, which is a blue tile with a white "f" on top. Underneath, it says the word "Facebook".
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
8
Press down on the "Facebook" icon, and it will open up the application
.

Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
9
We need to find the Settings menu, and to do that we can use the icon on the far right-hand side of the screen and in the white bar
.
There are three gray horizontal lines.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
10
Press down on that icon, and it will open up a menu
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
11
We want the fourth option that says "Account Settings"
.
Next to those words is a gray circle with the white outline of a person's head and shoulders inside of it. It also has a small white cog icon. It might be necessary to scroll up or down in order to find the "Account Settings" option.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
12
When found, press down on "Account Settings" to open the "Settings" menu
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
13
We want the third option that says "Privacy", so press down on that
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
14
At the top, it says, "Who can see my stuff?"
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
15
We're interested in the first option just underneath that which says, "Who can see your future posts?" Currently, it says "Friends", indicating that is the option selected
.
Only our friends can see our future posts.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
16
If we press down on that option, then it opens the "Select Audience" screen for that section
.
It says, "You can manage the privacy of things you share by using the audience selector right where you post. This control remembers your selection so future posts will be shared with the same audience unless you change It." That means that we can choose the audience for our individual posts, and we can also choose our audience in general. This is the more general setting, and it is for all of our posts in general.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
17
Currently, the blue check mark indicates that we have selected "Friends"
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
18
If we prefer, we can change that to "Public", so everyone will be able to see our future posts
.
To do that, press down on "Public".
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
19
Now, it brings us back to the previous screen, and we can see that it says the word "Public" under the first option, indicating that we have changed that option
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
20
One thing we want to mention is that there is a slight glitch with this application
.
If we want to go back into the first option and make another change, we can press down on it, and the option will turn blue. However, nothing happens.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
21
When this happens, what we need to do is press the back arrow, which is the curved arrow located at the bottom left-hand corner of the screen
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
22
Press that once, and we'll see the screen flicker
.
It tries to go back but will not actually leave the current menu.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
23
Now, we can press down on the first option, and it will be able to open that section
.
This problem only occurs when we actually make a different choice. If we don't actually make a new choice and then just go back out, then we can go back in with no problem.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
24
However, if we make a different choice, such as if select "Friends", then when we try to go back into that section again from the previous menu, it will not work until we press the back button
.
Was this step helpful? Yes | No| I need help
