A platform to meet new friends:-
Facebook is an interface to meet with new people. I have made lots of new friends with whom I even talk and interact with on daily basis. With whom I have exchanged one help or another. The spark of friendship can happen from an idea you shared through a post or from a comment section of a mutual friend or by adding a random person, and gradually you two get to know each other. In my phone, I have a Facebook application, and Facebook messenger.
The Facebook application is the wider community where you make posts to share ideas to be seen by all your friends, while the messenger is for private conversation with end to end inscription.
Below is a screenshot from my phone showing the Facebook application and the messenger.

Connect with Old friends:-
Over the years, Facebook have been my favorite of all applications in My phone, This is so because, overtime, it have helped me reconnect with many friends of mine whom I had lost contact with at one point or another.
It also helps you know their progress and struggles in their life through their periodic updates.
Here you just have to sellect the search button and type in the name or phone number of that friend you wish to reconnect with, aftrer you identify him from the options provided, then sellect his name and click on Add Friend a notification will be sent him/her immediately. When he is prompted, it is left for him to either accept the request, decline or block you.

News:-
Again, it keeps me up to date with events in the society. This is possible because I have aligned myself with lots of platforms, online news sites and popular blogs that carry verified and authentic news. With this, am one of the first to know what is going on in our environment and the world at large.

Facebook is also a business platform:-
I have a business page on Facebook and also with Instagram that is also doing pretty well. But Facebook have done better over the years and I place it above that of Instagram.
Facebook isn't only for socializing, it is also a business platform for me and many others. As a tailor, through this app, I have been able to advertise my craft to the wider world and it have been very rewarding.
Bellow is a screenshot of my business page on Facebook.

A platform to learn new things:-
Forthermor, I must attest that through Facebook, I have learnt new things from ideas shared by people.
It ranges from sports, entertainment, business, religion, history, politics, and the list goes on and on.

Entertainment:-
Facebook platform is a means of entertainment, on this platform. You read articles and see video of lots of amazing things like joke, movie clips and music. As a matter of fact, I use Facebook to relax after the days activities. There are areas you can align yourself with and your leisure time on Facebook will be worthwhile.

Photo Archive:- Overtime, i have used many phones and have a few hard drives of mine have gone bad resulting to loss of files including pictures.
I first joined Facebook in 2007, and ever since, all the pictures I ever uploaded there are all in tact. I go there sometime to call-up some of them for one purpose or another. Therefore, any picture(s) I want to keep safe I upload on Facebook.

Disadvantages
Nevertheless, i will not fail to mention the facts that; this app also has disadvantages if misused.
Yes! everything that had advantages also has corresponding disadvantages, this app have lots of disadvantages which have cause many people physical injuries, financial loss, emotional breakdown and even death.
