   The first option is 'like notifications'

   .

   If someone likes one of our posts, when would we like to be notified? We can choose 'off', 'from people I follow', or 'from everyone'. Tap on the selected option. The option that is selected will have a black dot inside of the circle. For this example, we want to be notified by everyone because we love the attention.

When we're done, we can press the checkmark at the bottom of the screen. That will save all of our choices for the future.
