Facebook does not allow users to see who has viewed their profile. This information is kept private to protect user privacy and prevent misuse. There is no official feature or setting on Facebook that reveals profile viewers, and the platform explicitly states that it does not let people track who views their profile
. In the past, there were brief periods or rumors about seeing profile visitors, but these were either limited or debunked as showing only recent interactions or chat contacts rather than actual profile views
. Currently, Facebook only notifies you of interactions such as friend requests, comments, likes, or when someone views your story, but not simple profile views
. Third-party apps or browser extensions that claim to show you who viewed your Facebook profile are unreliable and often scams designed to steal personal data or harm your device. Facebook discourages the use of such apps and warns users against them
. Some indirect indicators might suggest who is interested in your profile, such as people appearing in your "People You May Know" list or those who frequently interact with your posts, but these do not confirm profile views
. In summary:
- Facebook does not show who viewed your profile.
- No legitimate app or method exists to track profile viewers.
- Notifications only appear for active interactions, not passive views.
- Using third-party apps to find profile viewers risks privacy and security.
This policy is designed to protect privacy and prevent stalking or discomfort among users
