Video Transcript:
If you've got general Facebook notifications enabled, that typically means that you'll get alerts for birthdays, popular posts and replies to your comments. If there's a specific Facebook friend you want to make sure you don't miss a post for on the platform, you have to set that up separately to receive notifications for their posts. From there you can choose to receive alerts for Facebook posts from that person via a push to your devices, or an email alert or SMS text message, to ensure that you don't miss anything.

Now let's walk through the steps to get an alert when someone posts on Facebook.

Step 1. Open the Facebook app on your iPhone, iPad or Android device, and then navigate to the information screen for the Facebook friend you want to get an alert for whenever they post.

Step 2. Tap "Friends," to open a menu, and then tap "Edit Close Friends" in this menu. The Edit Friends Lists screen is shown.

Step 3. Tap "Close Friends" to place a check mark next to it.

Step 4. Navigate back to the Facebook home screen, and then click "Menu." You'll land on the Menu screen.

Step 5. Scroll down to the bottom of this screen, and then click "Settings and Privacy" to expand that menu.

Step 6. Click "Settings" in the expanded menu. The Settings and Privacy screen is displayed.

Step 7. Navigate down to the Preferences section, and then click "Notifications." The Notifications Settings screen is shown.

Step 8. Navigate to the What Notifications You Received section, and then click "Updates from Friends." The Updates from Friends screen is displayed.

Step 9. Make sure "Allow Notifications on Facebook" is toggled on, and then move down to the Where You Receive These Notifications section. Toggle on the specific types of notifications you want to receive whenever this user posts. You can choose to have notifications pushed to your devices, or you can choose to receive an email alert or SMS text message. Your changes will be effective immediately.
