How to Sort Facebook News Feed by Most Recent on iPhone, iPad or Android

Introduction

By default your Facebook news feed is sorted by what Facebook feels you’ll be the most interested in rather than by what’s been posted most recently. While this has its advantages, there are times when you just want to see what people are posting at that moment. While it is possible to do this in Facebook, it’s not an easy feature to find and use.

Some of the images associated with the steps are included inline below. All images associated with these steps can be seen in the embedded YouTube video.
