6 things you didn't know you could do on Facebook

Here are a few ways to boost your Facebook experience:

1. How do you say that?

According to analysis more than 83 percent of Facebook's users are from outside of the U.S. and Canada, and they are using over 80 languages to communicate with their friends and family. There are a lot of people and a lot of different ways to say your name. To add a pronunciation guide, go to the "about" section of your profile and click on "details about you," (called "more about you" on mobile) then "name pronunciation." Now, Facebook suggest you two options, for your first and last name that you can listen to before selecting. If none work, you can also type in your own phonetic pronouncer.

2. One-time password

 If you does not feel comfortable in typing your password on a shared computer which may contain some malicious software, Facebook lets you request a temporary one time password by simply texting "otp" to 32665. You will receive an eight-character password which works only for the next 20 minutes and cannot be reused.

3. Unsubscribe
Anyone who's commented on a popular Facebook post, or belongs to a particularly chatty group, knows that those notifications telling you that "Abhishekh and 4 others also commented on a post" can get a bit disturbing. You can turn off notifications for individual posts by clicking on the globe icon on the top right corner of your Web browser, then on the "X'' next to the individual notification. You can also change your notification settings here to get fewer or more of them for each group that you belong to.

To do this on mobile, click to view the original post, then click the down arrow in the top right corner of the post. You'll see an option to "turn off notifications."

4. Keep it on the down-low
Disclosing engagements and marriages on Facebook is a great fun. Post and watch the likes and congratulations from your friends. Swim in the love and glory. After a few years for some couples the glory may fades, not to mention the love and marriage. In this case, no one wants to announce the irreversible breakdown to 500 of your closest friends.

Facebook also has a solution to this problem, you can mark the end of a relationship without notifying everyone. For this, go to your profile section and click on the "about", then "family and relationships on the left". Under relationship, you will see a icon that maybe says "friends," or maybe "public." Change it to "only me." Your relationship status is changed now. After a while, you can change it back if you wish. Your hundreds of friends and acquaintances will not aware, unless they walk up to your profile to see your relationship status.

5. Picture perfect
Thanks to a popular but little-known new feature, Facebook lets you edit the photos you post by adding text and quirky stickers, such as drawings of corn dog, sunglasses or a scuba gear. This tool is already available on iPhones and will come soon to Android devices. To use it, choose a photo to upload and click the magic wand icon. Here, you will find text overlay options as well as the same stickers you can easily use in other parts of Facebook.

6. Security check
Another recent addition to Facebook's collection of tools is a "security checkup" that mentor users through a checklist so that their account can be made more secure. This includes logging out of Facebook on Web browsers and apps they are not using, and receiving alerts when someone tries to log in to their account from an unexpected device or browser.
