We want the option that says, "Review posts that friends tag you in before they appear on your Timeline?" This gives us lots of control over what appears on our timeline
.
For example, if we've been somewhere, and someone has taken a photo of us, they can just put it straight onto our timeline. However, perhaps it is an embarrassing photo, and we don't want it to appear on our timeline. If we turn this option on, then we can first look at the photo and choose whether or not it appears on our timeline.
