Facebook’s Snooze feature allows you to temporarily hide posts from a specific person, page, or group for 30 days. However, if you change your mind and want to unsnooze them early, you can do so easily.
Here are three simple ways to turn off Snooze on Facebook using the mobile app and desktop.
1. Turn Off Snooze from Your News Feed
If you recently snoozed someone and see their post in your feed, you can quickly unsnooze them from there.
Steps (Mobile & Desktop):
- Open Facebook and scroll through your News Feed.
- If you see a post from the person, page, or group you snoozed, tap the three dots (⋮) in the top-right corner of their post.
- Select End Snooze from the dropdown menu.
This will immediately restore their posts to your feed.
2. Unsnooze from Facebook Settings
If you don’t see a post from the snoozed person or page in your feed, you can manually manage snoozed accounts from settings.
Steps (Mobile App):
- Open the Facebook app and tap the menu (☰) at the bottom (iPhone) or top (Android).
- Scroll down and tap Settings & privacy > Settings.
- Tap News Feed Preferences > Snooze.
- You’ll see a list of people, pages, and groups you have snoozed.
- Tap End Snooze next to the account you want to unsnooze.
Steps (Desktop):
- Open Facebook.com and click on your profile picture in the top right.
- Click Settings & privacy > News Feed Preferences.
- Select Snooze to see the list of accounts you’ve snoozed.
- Click End Snooze next to the person, page, or group.
Once you end snooze, their posts will start appearing in your feed again immediately.
3. Unsnooze from the Person’s or Page’s Profile
Another way to unsnooze someone is by going directly to their profile or page.
Steps (Mobile & Desktop):
- Open Facebook and search for the person, page, or group you snoozed.
- Go to their profile or page.
- Tap the Following button (on profiles) or Liked button (on pages).
- Select Snoozed (if it’s active) and tap End Snooze.
This method is helpful if you can’t find the Snooze settings but remember who you snoozed.
