This post will show you how to log out on Facebook Messenger on all devices with another phone.
Let me guess…
Your phone has been stolen or you misplaced it and you afraid of what will happen to your Facebook account. Especially the Messenger App which has more than 1 billion downloads on Google PlayStore.
OR let me guess once more…
You switch account with your friend phone just to reply that very important message or to upload that worth sharing selfie you took with another phone. Too bad you forgot to log out before handing that phone to your friend and now you are afraid because you don’t want your friend to tamper with your Facebook privacy.
Good news you are not alone. In fact, I was once in your shoe so I can relate to that terrifying feeling of someones sneaking into your social privacy, reading all your messages and chats. I can’t even let anyone peep while I’m texting talk more off letting them access to my Facebook account.
The exciting news here is that you can remotely log out of your Facebook account with another phone.
