Facebook recently rolled out some new controls that users can take advantage of from their mobile phone to manage their account. The first tool provides a way to reset your password from your mobile device. Facebook said users will be able to specify an email address where their new password can be sent. Facebook is also providing options other than email when it comes to verifying your identity. The second tool offered by Facebook is mobile social reporting. Mobile social reporting gives users a way to reach out and communicate with people who post photos and/or other content about them that the user doesn't like. Right now, these tools are available from m.facebook.com, but Facebook said that it will roll them out to mobile applications over the coming months.
