The acronym fyi stands for "for your information".
Its use is to inform someone about anything and placing the acronym as a starter to a sentence or to end it.
e.g. Fyi, I'm not gonna make it tonight, sorry.
Hey, fyi, I don't want to watch this movie.
I don't think that we're gonna be there on time, fyi.
The use of it is not strict and you can form variations on how fyi will be used in a sentence. As long as its meaning doesn't change.

It's quite simple actually. It was originally a shortened version for For Your Information.
However, people have made up other things that can stand for FYI. For example "Fuck You Idiot". But, that's a bit pointless if you ask me. Saying the whole thing has a grander effect.

(Quoting Shrek 2)
Prince Charming: FYI, not my fault!
Or..
-FYI!!!
-Huh?
-Fuck you idiot!!!
-What the hell?
