Notifications from Facebook application can be very annoying. They appear relatively often, which can be irritating, especially when we perform important tasks or wait for important information. Facebook is aware of this problem, hence the latest update introduces important changes to the Facebook's application.

Information on the introduction of quiet mode on the Internet appeared almost a month ago, and now Facebook has actually confirmed that it is making appropriate changes to its application. Users will be able to introduce application to quiet mode for a specified period of time during which they will not receive notifications and when they want to enter the application, a special message will be displayed to them informing for how long the application will remain in quiet mode. Of course, users will be able to turn off quiet mode in options even when it's currently enabled.
