Sound familiar?<\/p>\n<p>You want to show something you posted\u00a0to someone in person and can\u2019t seem to find it anywhere. Or maybe there was something a friend posted, or something you liked or commented on. No matter what it is and why you need to find it, this is\u00a0a notorious problem people have on Facebook. What many don\u2019t realize is there\u2019s a far better alternative than endlessly scrolling down your or a friend\u2019s Timeline.<\/p>\n<h2>Native Facebook Features &amp; Tips<\/h2>\n<p>Before allowing an app to access your Facebook, try experimenting with Facebook\u2019s own features. If you are scrolling down your Timeline, you should know that by default Facebook doesn\u2019t display every post\u00a0by you or your friends. Even if you click the specific year to the top right, you\u2019re only going to see the Highlights. In order to see all posts from that year, click the \u201cdown arrow\u201d to the right of Highlights and click \u201cAll Stories\u201d.

This displays not only your own posts, but any posts from your friends as well.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"post__img-holder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-439237\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20150121134856\/http:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/6.2-QSearch-Search-Posts.png?79af87\" alt=\"6.2 QSearch - Search Posts\" width=\"640\" height=\"322\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"img__sharer\"><\/div>\n<p>In addition to searching your own Timeline, you can also use it to search your friend\u2019s Timelines, groups you\u2019re a part of and pages you follow.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"post__img-holder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-439238\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20150121134857\/http:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/6.3-QSearch-Home.png?79af87\" alt=\"6.3 QSearch - Home\" width=\"640\" height=\"329\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"img__sharer\"><\/div>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.facebook.com\/searchmposts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Search My Posts<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Search My Posts is an app with less functionality\u00a0than QSearch, but still allows you to find your posts to your Timeline based on a keyword search. You can also filter by videos, music, images and links. In my experience, not all results loaded at once and they did take a little time, but I still found what I was looking for.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"post__img-holder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-439240\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20150121134859\/http:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/7-Search-My-Posts.png?79af87\" alt=\"7 Search My Posts\" width=\"639\" height=\"336\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"img__sharer\"><\/div>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/archivedbook.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Archivedbook<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Archivedbook is a website that you connect to Facebook to view\u00a0all your old posts, but it can find far more than that. You can also see all of your friends\u2019 posts. Seen in the image above, you have several options on sorting what to display: your posts and statuses, posts by others to your Timeline, photos, videos, places, pages, notes and events. You can also sort how the results\u00a0are displayed by clicking the dropdown menu to the far right and choosing whether to display newer or older items first, or by posts most liked or commented on.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"post__img-holder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-439241\" src=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20150121134901\/http:\/\/cdn.makeuseof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/8-Archivedbook-Searching.png?79af87\" alt=\"8 Archivedbook - Searching\" width=\"640\" height=\"203\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"img__sharer\"><\/div>\n<p>The only downside to Archivedbook is it doesn\u2019t store the loaded posts at all. That might sound like a good thing, but when you click on any other option (aside from the far right dropdown menu at the top), it has to completely reload the entire list. It also would be nice if you could set a specific time frame to display\u00a0posts in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TIP:<\/strong> To search for a post, just use the shortcut <strong>CTRL + F<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Which Method Do You Use?<\/h2>\n<p>My recommendation would be to first try to get by without connecting a website or app to your account and use Graph Search or searching the Activity Log \u2013 just my personal preference.<\/p>\n<p>However, QSearch is a great tool for finding things <em>quickly<\/em>, and it has some sorting options too. Search My Posts would be good for narrowing down results to\u00a0<em>only<\/em> your posts (not a feature that is in QSearch), but be prepared to wait just a bit longer for the results to load. Using Archivedbook is great, but you\u2019ll have plenty of time to go grab a snack in the kitchen while you wait for the results to load.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.makeuseof.com\/tag\/5-tools-help-find-anything-facebook-timeline\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">from MakeUseOf<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where is that post I shared on Facebook?!
