Block Candy Crush Saga requests and notifications on Facebook

 

QUESTION I've given up playing the game Candy Crush Saga and I've removed the app from my phone, but I still keep getting loads of extra lives and similar requests on Facebook from other players. Why does this keep happening, and how can I stop it?How to stop Candy Crush Saga sending you extra lives and requests on Facebook. 

Facebook HELPROOM ANSWER is: Removing the game from your phone isn't enough as you probably still have the 

application 

installed on Facebook. Candy Crush players can send you requests at any time, and if you don't entirely remove yourself from the game, they won't know not to continue sending you the requests.

The simplest way to avoid the troublesome requests is to block the Candy Crush Saga app on Facebook.

Sign into your Facebook account using your browser and select the small cog icon in the top-right corner to drop down a menu. Here, select Account Settings.

Now, on the left-hand side of the page, select Blocking. This will present you with five different types of blocks you can place on your account. The bottom one is for blocking apps, and here you can prevent any chosen app from being able to contact you or access your information.

To add Candy Crush Saga to the list, start typing the name of the app into the box next to ‘Block apps'. You'll then be able to select the app you want from a drop-down list of apps matching what you've typed so far.

When you've done this, Candy Crush Saga will show up in a list of blocked apps. If you want to unblock the app at a later stage and resume playing, you can click the ‘unblock' link next to your chosen app.

Alternatively, if you want to turn off the notifications without blocking the app, you can wait until you receive one, then hover your cursor over the notification. A little circle and an 'x' should appear. Click on the 'x'. You will now be presented with two buttons, one to turn off notifications from this all and the other to keep them on. Click ‘Turn off' and you should stop receiving the notifications.
