Here you&#8217;ll learn how to disable Messenger, sign out, and remove app data from the app. You can also find more useful tips in our FAQ section. By the time you&#8217;ve finished reading this article, you should know how to sign out of Facebook Messenger for good. After all, you&#8217;ve come to the right place!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_log_out_of_Facebook_Messenger\"><\/span>How to log out of Facebook Messenger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Facebook Messenger is a private messaging app that lets you chat, text, and even video-call friends. Logging out can be tricky, though, since it may falsely report that you&#8217;re online when you&#8217;re not. That can lead to arguments between friends. Fortunately, there are several ways to log out of Facebook Messenger. Here are some options:<\/p>\n<p>To log out of Messenger, go to the Facebook website. Once logged in, click Settings. Scroll down until you find the &#8220;Log Out&#8221; option. From here, click on &#8220;Log Out of All Sessions&#8221; and choose &#8220;Log Out of All Devices&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to uninstall the Messenger app completely, you can delete it from your phone&#8217;s storage. It remembers your Facebook account, so it&#8217;s best to do this from your device rather than from your computer. To remove Facebook Messenger, open the main Facebook app and follow the steps described above. Once the app is no longer on your phone, you&#8217;ll be prompted to log in again. Once you&#8217;ve uninstalled the app, you&#8217;ll be prompted to sign in with your Facebook account.<\/p>\n<p>To remove Facebook Messenger from your iOS device, open the Facebook application. Click on the &#8220;More&#8221; button in the top right corner. This will open the &#8220;Account Settings&#8221; section. Click on &#8220;Log Out of All Sessions&#8221; and confirm your action. If you use the Android version of Facebook Messenger, you&#8217;ll have to sign out of all devices. If you use a PC or a Mac, you can log out from the Messenger app by going to &#8220;Where You&#8217;re Logged In&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_disable_Facebook_Messenger\"><\/span>How to disable Facebook Messenger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Disabling Facebook Messenger is easy. You can deactivate your account, or choose to stop receiving notifications from Facebook messenger, by following a few simple steps. To begin, log out of your Facebook account. You will be prompted with a confirmation box when you click on the &#8220;Uninstall&#8221; option. To turn off computer notifications, click the &#8220;off&#8221; button. You will have to log back in to Facebook to reactivate Messenger.<\/p>\n<p>If you decide to reactivate Messenger, the first step is to deactivate your account. Simply open the application and log in with your Facebook account&#8217;s password. The next step is to disable &#8220;Active Status,&#8221; which makes you appear offline. Once this is done, you can no longer receive notifications through Messenger. Once this process is complete, you can reactivate Messenger and continue communicating with your friends. Just make sure that you choose a password to reactivate your account.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to unsubscribe from Messenger altogether, you can try uninstalling Messenger from your mobile device. However, it&#8217;s important to note that removing Messenger from your mobile phone won&#8217;t remove the messages you&#8217;ve already sent or received. It&#8217;s best to disable the Messenger app before uninstalling it. You can also choose to disable your &#8220;Active Status&#8221; by changing your settings in Messenger.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_remove_app_data_from_Facebook_Messenger\"><\/span>How to remove app data from Facebook Messenger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to remove app data from Facebook Messenger, the first thing you need to do is backup your phone before you start the process. Unlike other apps, you can&#8217;t delete the contents of your cache if you delete the app. However, it&#8217;s possible to remove the data and cache from Messenger without deleting the messages or other content. The steps below show how to clear the app&#8217;s data.<\/p>\n<p>First, delete any conversations you no longer want to keep. If you&#8217;re deleting a conversation, you can do so via the web browser or the Facebook app. To do this, simply log into the app with your username and password. Deleted conversations will no longer appear in your draft space. Facebook will notify other members of your conversation that you&#8217;ve deleted them. After clearing the data, your conversation will no longer show up in the drafts folder.<\/p>\n<p>After clearing the cache and data from Facebook Messenger, you should open your phone&#8217;s settings. Go to the Apps section and select Facebook Messenger. Next, choose your app from the list and tap &#8216;Offload&#8217; or &#8216;Clear data&#8217;. Once you&#8217;ve done that, your phone will automatically delete the data stored in Facebook Messenger. You&#8217;ll need to repeat this process periodically in order to prevent the app from occupying too much space.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/y9baikgGq5o\" height=\"262\" width=\"468\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Sign Out of Facebook Messenger If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to sign out of Facebook Messenger, then this article is for you.
