Facebook update allows you to hide certain stories and people from your news feed

A Facebook for iOS update that was released earlier today includes the ability to hide certain people from your main news feed. To do so, just tap the downward arrow on any post and select the “I don’t like this post” option. From there you can select from a few different options for hiding the post or the user that posted it.

The iPhone version of the app also allows you to see all of your videos in a single album. This feature didn’t make it to the iPad version for some reason, but it might make the jump in a future update.

You can grab the updated app for free on the iOS App Store.

What’s New in Version 6.9

• Choose whose posts you see in News Feed
• See all the videos you’ve uploaded in one album (iPhone only)

    I updated but none of those new features is showing for me. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Anyone else have this problem?

    Facebook sucks! They still don’t understand that my comments on Publicly shared item shouldn’t appear in my friend’s news feed.
