Do you want to turn off snooze for a person, page, or group on Facebook? Snoozing someone prevents you from seeing any of their posts on your feed for 30 days. If you don't want to wait for the snooze to automatically end, you can manually turn it off. You can easily do this on your Windows or Mac computer, or on a mobile device. This wikiHow will show you how to disable snooze on Facebook using a desktop computer and your iPhone, iPad, or Android device.

Things You Should Know

• On desktop, click your profile picture. Go to "Settings & Privacy" → "Feed Preferences" → "Snooze”. Click the clock icon to unsnooze.
• On mobile, tap the menu icon. Go to "Settings & Privacy" → "Settings" → "Feed" → "Snooze" → "End Snooze".
• Snoozing a profile will stop posts from certain accounts from appearing on your feed for 30 days.
