This doesn&#8217;t affect your regular Facebook content &#8211; only stories. Here&#8217;s how to do it from your PC or mobile device. Turn off Facebook stories by following the steps below. Note that you must be logged in to Facebook to turn off Facebook Stories. If you&#8217;re logged in via a different device, you can also mute Facebook Stories by tapping on the &#8220;Mute&#8221; button at the top right-hand corner of the story. When you tap the mute button, a confirmation screen will appear.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve decided that you don&#8217;t want to see Facebook stories on your news feed, you can turn off all notifications that come from &#8220;Updates from friends.&#8221; This will remove the stories notifications in your Android notification shade. To turn off Facebook stories on your iPhone or Android device, visit the notification section of the Facebook app and tap on &#8220;Stories.&#8221; Alternatively, you can open the menu tab, and select &#8220;Notifications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hide_a_story_from_specific_people\"><\/span>Hide a story from specific people<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You may be wondering how to hide a story from specific people on the Facebook platform. You can hide a story from specific users by following a few easy steps. Firstly, you can select the people from whom you want to hide the story. This is found in the &#8220;Story&#8221; section of your profile. Once you&#8217;ve chosen the people you want to hide the story from, you can tap on their name to view their stories.<\/p>\n<p>The first step in the process is to click on the Application Menu on the upper right corner of the screen. You can then select &#8220;Settings&#8221; from the bottom-left corner of the menu. Scroll down to see a list of Facebook friends and select the people who do not want to see your stories. You can also search for specific users and include them in the story exception. Once you&#8217;ve done this, new stories won&#8217;t be visible to those friends on Facebook or in the Messenger app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_a_story_before_24-hour_time_limit\"><\/span>Delete a story before 24-hour time limit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have made a mistake and wish to delete a story on Facebook, the steps to remove it are easy. Log in to your account and click on &#8220;See All.&#8221; Select the story you wish to delete. There are two phases to remove the story. Steps three and four should be repeated for deleting the story. After 24 hours, Facebook will no longer store your stories. Alternatively, you can delete them permanently.<\/p>\n<p>First, select the story you wish to remove from your Facebook page. Select the &#8216;edit story&#8217; option in the top-right corner. You can choose to delete just the story or the entire page. You can also delete stories from Messenger. Just make sure you delete them before the time limit has elapsed. You can mute the story to prevent anyone from seeing the content. Afterwards, you can post your story again at a later time.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_an_archived_story\"><\/span>Delete an archived story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you have posted a photo or video on your Facebook wall and want to delete it, you need to delete it from your profile.
