Tremendous surprise. Most of Facebook’s features are still in place; however, there were some that disappeared as the years passed. For example, the ‘ tap ‘ option that many users used, without knowing its true purpose. Did you know him? Here we are going to reveal it to you.

According to Unocero, a portal specialized in technology, this tool was very popular among users, who used it to greet their friends; however, it had an additional function that very few knew about.

The purpose of the taps was for a user (who was not your contact) to have access to your Facebook information temporarily . That is, if you tapped on a stranger, they could see your photos, videos, etc., for a period of time.

Can you give touches in 2021?

To ‘tap’ a person on Facebook, the user had to visit their profile. At present, that tab has been removed ; however, it is still possible to use the feature, albeit only with your contacts . Do you want to know how?

The touches are only available from the web version. Once you log into a PC or laptop, you will need to visit https://www.facebook.com/pokes . There you will see all your available friends.

Not only that, you will be able to know if someone sent you a touch . It doesn’t matter that it was years ago, Facebook will show you. In case that person is not in your contact list, you will not be able to return it to them.

As you can see in the image, the person you send a touch to will only receive a notification on their phone or computer. It will be up to her to return the greeting.
