How To Toggle between ‘Top Stories’ and ‘Most Recent’ News Feed for Facebook on Android


While accessing your Facebook profile, by default Facebook shows ‘Top Stories’ in your News Feed. The ‘Top Stories’ news feed displays the most active/liked/popular newsfeeds based upon the pages you or your Facebook friends like.

Apart from ‘Top Stories’, Facebook also has another option named ‘Most Recent’ which displays the latest news on your Facebook profile once you are logged in. ‘Most Recent’ has nothing to do with the popularity of the posts.

In order to switch between the ‘Top Stories’ and ‘Most Recent’ news feeds, you must follow the below steps on your Android smartphone:

    ■Turn on your Android phone.
    ■From the home screen, tap the Menu button to go to the apps list.

    ■Since the PC version of Facebook site is needed to open on the mobile web browser (E.g. Google Chrome for this demonstration), after opening and logging in to your Facebook account on your mobile, in the address bar, remove the initial ‘m.’ from the Facebook URL.
