3 Ways to See Memories on Facebook
Introduction:
As time goes by, we often look back and cherish the memories we’ve made with our friends and family. In the digital age, social media platforms like Facebook provide us with an opportunity to revisit these happy moments. Aside from showing you what you’ve shared in the past, Facebook’s Memories feature allows you to easily view, enjoy, and share these precious memories. In this article, we’ll explore three ways to see your memories on Facebook.
1. The ‘On This Day’ Feature:
One of the most popular ways that Facebook provides a glimpse into your past is through the ‘On This Day’ feature. You can find it in two ways:
a) News Feed: To view your memories via the News Feed, simply scroll down and look for the ‘On This Day’ memory box or card with a nostalgic picture or post on it. Clicking on this will take you to more memories from that specific date.
b) Notifications: Alternatively, when you have memories available for a particular day, Facebook will send you a notification. Simply click on this notification to be taken to your Memories page.
2. The ‘Memories’ Section:
Facebook introduced a dedicated ‘Memories’ section where all your memories are neatly grouped together for easy access. To view this section:
a) Desktop: On the left-hand side menu of your home page, you should see a tab called ‘Memories.’ Click on this tab to be taken directly to your Memories page.
b) Mobile App: On the bottom menu of your screen, tap on the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines), scroll down to find ‘Memories,’ and tap on it.
Once in the ‘Memories’ section, you can browse through various categories such as ‘On This Day,’ ‘Friends Made on This Day,’ and more, all giving you a chance to reminisce on past connections and experiences.
3. Create a Custom “Friendship” Memory:
If you’d like to view memories with a specific person, Facebook also allows you to create a custom memory through the ‘See Friendship’ feature. To do this:
a) Go to your friend’s profile page on Facebook and click or tap on the three-dotted menu icon.
b) Select ‘See Friendship’ from the dropdown menu.
c) You will then see an overview of your friendship, including posts where you both are tagged, photos together, common friends, and interactions on each other’s timelines. Scroll through these
to enjoy your shared memories.
Conclusion:
Facebook has made it easier than ever to dig into our digital past and relive moments that have brought us joy. By utilizing these three methods – ‘On This Day,’ the dedicated ‘Memories’ section, and the ‘See Friendship’ feature – you can take a trip down memory lane anytime you wish. So go ahead, explore your memories, and share them with your loved ones to relive the happiness together.
