In this guide, we are going to answer a question almost every social media user asks once: how do you unfollow someone on Facebook? If you want to stop following different Facebook accounts or users, here we show you how to do it using two different methods.
On Facebook, we can follow all the accounts that we are interested in. We receive all their posts, images, videos, and more. But it is also possible to unfollow someone if you don’t want to see that person’s posts on your Facebook wall.
How do you unfollow someone on Facebook?
Follow the steps below to stop following someone on Facebook, either a person or an account:
- Log in to Facebook and enter your login details for your account if you don’t have automatic login enabled.
- Search for the Facebook profile of the person or account you want to unfollow using the search bar at the top of the screen.
- Now click on the icon with the three dots located under the header image of that account.
- In the pop-up menu, click on the Follow settings option.
- A new window will open with numerous tracking options for this page.
- Turn on the Stop tracking this page switch at the bottom.
- Click on Refresh.
This will stop following that particular person or Facebook account and you will no longer receive their content on your Facebook News Feed.
How do you unfollow everyone on Facebook?
Although if you no longer want to receive content from any of the pages you follow, you can choose to unfollow everyone on Facebook all at once. It is a very useful option if you follow too many people or Facebook accounts and do not want to unfollow them one by one. Follow the steps below to unfollow everyone at once:
- Log in to Facebook and enter your login details for your account if you don’t have automatic login enabled.
- Click on the down arrow icon in the top right corner of the screen to drop down the menu.
- Click on Settings and Privacy.
- Now click on News Feed Preferences.
- Now choose the Stop following option.
- Choose All to show all the pages you follow and click on the blue icon to unfollow the selected ones; you can also choose between Friends only, Pages only, and Groups only.
