How can I log into multiple accounts on FB?

Facebook allows users to have multiple accounts linked to one device. This can be useful if you manage Pages or ad accounts for work, if you have a personal profile and a fan page, or if you just want to keep certain aspects of your life separate.

Logging in and out of different accounts on Facebook can seem tricky at first, but it’s actually very simple once you know how. Here are some tips for easily managing and switching between multiple Facebook accounts on the same device.

Add Accounts in Facebook Settings

The easiest way to log into multiple accounts is by adding them in your Facebook Settings. Here’s how:

1. Open the Facebook app and tap the three-line menu icon in the top right.
2. Scroll down and choose “Settings & Privacy” then tap “Settings.”
3. Tap “Personal and Account Information” then choose “Account Ownership and Control.”
4. Under “Multiple Accounts” tap “Add Account.”
5. Enter the email address and password for the account you want to add.

Once you’ve added additional accounts here, you’ll be able to seamlessly switch between them within the Facebook app without having to log out and back in each time.

Log Out of Your Account

If you don’t want to add accounts to your Settings, you can simply log out of your current account when you want to switch.

To log out of Facebook:

1. Tap the three line menu icon.
2. Scroll down and choose “Log Out.”
3. Tap “Log Out” again to confirm.

This will log you out of the account you’re currently using so you can log into a different one.

Log In with a Different Account

Once you’ve logged out, you can log back in with a different account.

1. From the Facebook login screen, enter the email/username and password for the other account.
2. Tap “Log In.”

You’ll now be logged into the other account and can use Facebook as normal.

Switch Between Accounts Quickly

If you’ve added your accounts in Settings, switching between them is very quick:

1. Tap the account profile icon in the bottom right (your profile pic).
2. Choose the account you want to switch to.

This will instantly log you into the other account without having to go through the full login process.

Use Facebook in a Web Browser

When using Facebook in a web browser on a computer, the process is very similar:

1. Click the account icon in the top right (your profile pic)
2. Choose “Log Out” to log out of your current account.
3. On the Facebook login page, enter the email/username and password for the account you want to log into.
4. Click “Log In.”

You can also stay logged into multiple accounts simultaneously when using Facebook in a desktop web browser. Here’s how:

1. Log into one account as usual.
2. Open a new incognito/private browser window.
3. Go to Facebook and log into your other account in that new window.

You’ll stay logged into each account in each separate browser window. Just open the appropriate window when you want to use that account.

Things to Keep in Mind

Here are a few extra tips for smoothly managing multiple accounts:

• Make sure you memorize which email or username goes with each account so you don’t get mixed up when logging in.
• Double check which account you’re logged into before posting anything.
• Add a profile picture to each account so you can visually tell them apart.
• Be aware that activity from one account may be recommended to your other connected accounts.

Recover Access to an Account

If you ever get logged out of an account and forget the login info, use Facebook’s account recovery options:

• On the Facebook login page, click “Forgotten password?” to reset your password.
• If you can’t remember which email you used, click “Find Your Account” and follow the steps to recover account access.

Deactivate an Account

If you no longer need access to one of your accounts, you can deactivate it:

1. Log into the account you want to deactivate.
2. Go to your Settings.
3. Click “Personal and Account Information” then “Account Ownership and Control.”
4. Click “Deactivate Account” and follow the prompts.

This will temporarily deactivate the account. To reactivate it, just log back in with your username and password.

Delete an Account Permanently

If you want to permanently delete an account:

1. Log into the account you want to delete.
2. Click the account menu (top right) and select “Settings.”
3. Click “Your Facebook Information” in the left column.
4. Click “Deactivation and Deletion.”
5. Choose “Permanently Delete Account” and follow the steps to confirm.

Once an account is permanently deleted, it cannot be retrieved.

Conclusion

Logging into multiple Facebook accounts is easy once you know the steps. Add accounts in Settings for quick switching, log out then log back in with different credentials, or use private browser windows. Keep your login info organized, double check which account you’re in, and utilize the account recovery options if you get locked out. With a few simple tips, you can seamlessly manage multiple accounts.
