Hands up if you want to stop receiving those annoying game app requests on Facebook.
Yep, me too!
Here’s how you do it on your mobile / tablet….
>> Go to your account settings.
>> Select Apps
>> Find where it says Platform and click on it.
>> Select No to Game Requests
You’re welcome!
If you use the desktop version of Facebook then you can also stop them by following this process…..
>> Go to your account settings.
>> Select Apps
>> Below Apps, Websites and Plug ins, click edit and then disable Platform.
Personally, I wouldn’t do it on your desktop unless you don’t use Facebook as a log in for anything else as the desktop version doesn’t give you the option to stop game invites unless you disable platform. This means that you can only use Facebook as Facebook. – you won’t be able to log into other apps, games and websites using Facebook. Have a look here for more info.
