Who can get into my Facebook account?
Three lists show who can reach your account, and each one is yours to review: the sessions where you’re logged in, the apps and websites you logged in to with Facebook, and the devices that can send and receive your encrypted Messenger chats.

Three lists, three places
| List | What is on it | Where to find it | How to clear it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Where you’re logged in | Every session, with a date, time, location and device type | Accounts Centre → Password and security → Where you’re logged in | Select devices to log out, or Select all, then Log out and confirm |
| Apps and websites | Apps, websites and games you logged in to with Facebook — active, expired or removed | Settings and privacy → Settings → Apps and websites | Remove next to the app; it then reaches only your public information, though it may keep what it stored |
| Devices in encrypted chats | Logged-in devices that can send and receive your end-to-end encrypted messages | In Messenger, from a mobile device only | Log a device out to remove it from your encrypted chats |
Signs worth checking for
Facebook Help lists these as signs that someone else may be using your account:
- A message or email that someone tried to log in, or logged in, and it wasn’t you.
- A device or location you don’t recognise in Where you’re logged in.
- Strange or suspicious login locations, or posts and messages you don’t remember sending — signs Help lists for malicious software.
Alerts for unrecognised logins tell you when someone logs in from a place Facebook doesn’t recognise.
If your account may have been phished
Steps Facebook Help lists:
- Report your account as compromised — you can, even if you can still log in.
- Reset your password and remove logins and devices you don’t recognise.
- Review your activity log for posts, interactions and connections you didn’t make.
- If you can’t get in at all, go to www.facebook.com/hacked, ideally from a device you’ve used before.
Questions
01Does logging out a session remove an app’s access?
They are separate lists in separate places: sessions are logged out in Where you’re logged in, apps are removed in Apps and websites.
02Does an app lose access if I stop using it?
For most apps, access to your non-public information expires after 90 days of inactivity, though the app may keep what you shared before. Business integrations (Pages, groups, ads, messages) don’t expire this way.
03Can I see the devices in my encrypted chats from a computer?
No. Facebook Help says you can view them only from a mobile device.
04I lost my phone. Where do I start?
Log out of it from another device in Where you’re logged in, so someone else can’t use your account on it.
