If you've been using Facebook for a while, you've probably accessed your account from more than one device. It's quite likely you've logged in from your phone, your computer, or even a friend's computer. In that last case, you're always wondering, "Did I log out of my account?" Today we'll explain how to see all the devices where your account is active and, most importantly, how to log out of your Facebook profile on multiple devices at once.
Where am I logged into Facebook?
This is one of the most typical questions if you are the type of user who is concerned about their privacy. Or, conversely, one of those people who logs into many computers and now can't remember if they logged out of all of them.
Fortunately, you can rest easy in this regard because, from your own account, you can see which devices you have logged into and some other very valuable information.
The first thing you should do is follow the steps below:
- Log in to your Facebook account and access your profile.
- Here, click on the “settings and security” menu and then tap on “Settings”. In the desktop version, these menus can be found on the arrow icon at the bottom of the upper right bar and, if you access it from a mobile phone, by clicking on the icon with the three lines on the bottom bar of the screen.
- Enter the option "Security and login".
Here you can see a list of devices where your Facebook account is logged in. In addition to the device type, you can see information such as its location , the time elapsed since the last time the account was used , and the app used to log in.
If you only see familiar devices like your smartphone or computer on this list, you have nothing to worry about. However, if you find a device you're sure you didn't use to access your account, someone may have accessed it without your permission. In this case, in addition to logging out of this and any other devices you don't usually use to access your account, we recommend changing your password and enabling two-step verification for your profile. These are two essential security measures to keep you safe online.
Sign out of Facebook on multiple devices at once
Now that you know all the devices where your profile is active, it's time to log out of your account on any of the devices on this list that you don't recognize.
If you only want to block access to a specific device, the best thing to do is tap the three-dot icon next to it and select "Log Out." Additionally, if you don't remember opening this app on that device and you're unsure whether it's an attempted profile theft , you can select "Not you?" so Facebook can guide you through the next steps.
However, if this list is very long, you can also log out of all those devices at once and then log in only from the ones you want. It's quite simple to do this: right on this screen, you'll see blue text that says "Log Out of All Sessions ." Clicking it will open a window informing you that you're logging out of all devices on this list and encouraging you to protect your account. If you click "Log Out," all those devices will automatically require your password to log back into Facebook. It's that easy to log out of Facebook on multiple devices at once.
