Remember that thing you saw that one time on Facebook and then could never find again? Well, Meta’s new feature could be just what you need. The ‘Link History’ feature helps users to easily find links they have interacted with in the app. Previously only available in selected regions, Meta has confirmed that all users, on Android and iOS, will soon be able to use the Link History archive.
The feature saves any links tapped on inside of Facebook for 30 days but also gives Facebook a little more insight on your interests for creating personalised ads. With this, you can remove any links from your history at any time or opt out of the feature entirely.
