How do I get notifications from Facebook sent to my cell phone? - bubblyeightohsix - 11-09-2012 08:05 PM

I want to know how I get notifications such as wall posts, messages, friend requests, etc. from Facebook through text messages. Do you know how I would activate this? Thanks in advance. Smile

http://www.facebook.com/mobile/

the middle one where it says "text link to my phone", type in your number and follow the instructions from there.

Actually, if you want to interact with Facebook strictly through text messages, you need to register for Facebook text messages first:
http://www.facebook.com/mobile/?settings

Click that blue link in the middle-ish of the page that says "Register for Facebook Text Messages." You'll then get a pop-up that will ask you for your country and mobile service provider. Choose your country and provider from the drop-down menus. Eventually it will ask for your number and will send you a confirmation code that you'll need to type in online.

To decide which texts from Facebook get sent to your phone, use this link:
