Facebook released a major update for its iOS app which included new features and improvements such as the ability to preview posts and the ability to create posts in offline mode. The update also includes improvements to make News feed load faster.

Many readers pointed out that the “Most Recent” News feed disappeared after the update, which was accessible right at the top of the Home page.

The good news is that the “Most Recent” Newsfeed hasn’t been removed, it has just been buried deep inside the Settings. Here’s how to access the Most Recent Newsfeed.

  • Launch the Facebook app from the Home screen.
  • Tap on the More tab at the bottom right corner
  • Scroll down to the FEEDS section (note that this will only display the Closed Friends option)
  • Tap on the > to expand the section.

  • Tap on Most Recent

That’s it, you should now be able to access the feed most of us really want to use on Facebook. You will have to repeat this process every time you start the Facebook app for the first time.

Let me know how it goes.
