Step #1: Log In to Your Account
Log in to your account from your Facebook mobile app.
Step #2: Go to the Menu
On your Android Facebook app, you will find different icons under Facebook’s logo on the top of the screen. Click on the three-line icon. It should be the last icon on the right, but it depends on your app update.
Step #3: Find Search and Privacy Tab
This is a menu where you will find all extra details like shortcuts, settings, and recent activity, among other things. Scroll down to the bottom, and just above the “Log Out” button, you will see a tab Settings & Privacy.

Tapping on the Settings & Privacy tab will open a drop-down list. Click on the Settings tab on the list. We realize that it seems like a maze but hang on because we are almost there.
