How to Delete a Facebook Account on App

Deleting a Facebook account on the app is a straightforward process that can be completed in just a few steps. Whether you’re looking to take a break from social media or are concerned about your privacy, following these instructions will guide you through the process of permanently deleting your account from the Facebook app. Keep in mind that once your account is deleted, you will not be able to recover any of your data, including your profile, photos, and messages.

Step 1: Open the Facebook App

To begin the account deletion process, open the Facebook app on your smartphone. Make sure you are logged in with the account you wish to delete.

Step 2: Navigate to the Settings Menu

Once you’re in the app, tap on the three horizontal lines in the bottom right corner to access the menu. Scroll down and tap on “Settings & Privacy,” then select “Settings.”

Step 3: Go to Your Facebook Information

In the Settings menu, tap on “Your Facebook Information.” This section contains various options related to your account, including the ability to delete your account.

Step 4: Select Delete Your Account

Within the “Your Facebook Information” section, scroll down and tap on “Delete Your Account and Information.” This will take you to the account deletion page.

Step 5: Confirm Your Decision

On the account deletion page, Facebook will ask you to confirm your decision. Choose the reason for deleting your account from the provided options. Keep in mind that this information is used to improve Facebook’s services and is not shared with third parties.

Step 6: Enter Your Password

To ensure that only the account owner can delete the account, Facebook will ask you to enter your password. Type in your password and tap “Continue.”

Step 7: Enter Your Email Address

Next, enter the email address associated with your Facebook account. This step is to confirm your identity and prevent unauthorized account deletion.

Step 8: Confirm Your Account Deletion

After entering your email address, Facebook will send a confirmation email to the address associated with your account. Open the email and click on the provided link to confirm your account deletion.

Step 9: Final Confirmation

Once you have clicked on the confirmation link in the email, you will be redirected back to the Facebook app. You will be prompted to enter your password one more time to finalize the deletion process.

Step 10: Account Deletion Complete

After entering your password, your Facebook account will be deleted. You will receive a confirmation message in the app, and your profile, photos, and messages will be permanently removed from Facebook.

Remember that it may take up to 90 days for your account to be completely deleted from Facebook’s servers. During this time, your account may still appear in search results or in the profiles of friends. However, your information will no longer be accessible to the public.
