What is Notify by Facebook?
Notify by Facebook is a mobile application developed by Facebook Inc. that provides notifications from the Facebook platform directly to users' mobile devices. It serves as an alternative to the main Facebook mobile app for users who want to stay on top of their Facebook notifications but do not necessarily want or need the full Facebook experience on their phone.
Some key features of Notify by Facebook include:
- Receive Facebook notifications for friend requests, messages, posts you're tagged in and other Facebook activity directly on your phone's lock screen without having to open the Facebook app.
- Customizable notifications so you only get alerts about the things you care about.
- Syncs across devices so notifications are marked as read on all devices.
- Lightweight app that uses less memory and battery than the main Facebook app.
- Available on iOS and Android.
In summary, Notify by Facebook provides core Facebook alert functionality in a streamlined package for users focused on their notifications. It can reduce distractions while still allowing users to stay updated on Facebook activity through push notifications.
