Unblock Someone on Facebook Messenger

 


Unblock Someone in Facebook Messenger on Desktop

To remove someone from your block list in the Messenger app or the Messenger web version on your Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer, follow these steps.

On your computer, open a web browser and head over to the Facebook site. Log in to the site with your account if you haven’t already done so.

In the top-right corner of the Facebook site, click the down-arrow icon.

From the down-arrow icon menu, select “Settings & Privacy.”

In the “Settings & Privacy” menu, click “Settings.”

Click "Settings" in the "Settings & Privacy" menu on Facebook.

Facebook will take you to a “General Account Settings” page. Here, in the sidebar to the left, click “Blocking.”

Click "Blocking" on the "General Account Settings" page on Facebook.

You’ll see a “Manage Blocking” page. On this page, scroll down to the “Block Messages” section. Find the user you want to unblock and click “Unblock” next to their name.

Click "Unblock" next to a user name on the "Manage Blocking" page on Facebook.

And immediately, Facebook will unblock the selected user in your Messenger. They can now call and message you on Messenger.

If you change your mind and you’d like to block them entirely on Facebook, it’s easy to do so.

Unblock Someone in Facebook Messenger on Mobile

On an iPhone, iPad, or Android phone, use the official Facebook Messenger app to unblock someone and allow them to reach out to you.

To do so, first, launch the Messenger app on your phone. In the app, at the top-left corner, tap your profile icon.

A “Me” screen will open. Here, scroll down and tap “Privacy.”

Tap "Privacy" on the "Me" screen in Messenger.

On the “Privacy” screen, tap “Blocked Accounts.”

Tap "Blocked Accounts" on the "Privacy" screen in Messenger.

You’ll now see a list of people you have blocked in your Facebook account. This list also contains the users who you have entirely blocked in your account.

To unblock someone from this list, tap that user in the list. Then, on the “Block” screen that opens, tap “Unblock Messages and Calls.”

Tap "Unblock Messages and Calls" on the "Block" screen in Messenger.

In the “Unblock Messages and Calls” prompt that opens, tap “Unblock.”

Tap "Unblock" in the "Unblock Messages and Calls" prompt in Messenger.

And that’s all. You’ve successfully unblocked the selected user in your Messenger account. They’re now free to call and message you on Facebook Messenger.
