how to deactivate facebook account latest version

As soon as you log in, however, your account is automatically re-activated. Friends cannot see your profile and you are essentially logged out, but without your Facebook being active in your absence. While your Facebook account will then be deactivated, it still exists and isn’t deleted.

Under Account, select Personal and Account Information.

Up the top right, underneath the Messenger icon, tap the three horizontal lines icon.

Open the Facebook app on your Android device (please note these instructions were made on a Google Pixel 7 Pro, so your version of Android may differ slightly).

And if you wish to keep using Messenger, check that box, too.

Select why you want to leave (you can opt to add more context if you like).

Under Account, select Personal and account information.

Scroll down to Settings & Privacy and expand.

On the bottom right of your screen, tap the Menu icon (three horizontal lines).

Open the Facebook app on your iPhone or iPad.

You will be prompted to confirm you want to deactivate.

And if you wish to keep using Messenger, check that box too.

Check to opt out of receiving emails from Facebook.

Select why you want to leave (you can opt to add more context if you like, but I don’t think Mark Zuckerberg is going to read why you don’t want to play Facebook anymore).
