Today we are going to teach you how to hide if you are online on Facebook or Messenger . A good way to not show anyone if you're online or how long you've been online.
Surely if you use Facebook or its messaging app, you may have noticed that it always appears when we're online. This can be a nuisance to many users, because they don't want anyone to know if they've been online or not, or if they've been online for a long time.
That's why from Facebook, as also happens in WhatsApp, Instagram We have the option to deactivate the connection, so as not to show it to anyone.
How to hide that you are online on Facebook and Messenger
We are going to explain how to deactivate it in both applications. First of all we will start with the Facebook app, whose process is still a bit more complex, but that does not mean that it is not simple.

Click on the configuration tab and then on the Status tab
Now throughout this configuration section, we must look for the "Status" tab,found in the privacy section. Click on it and we will have to deactivate the button that appears
