Disable Facebook Messenger
If you've yet to try this function yourself, our guide will certainly show you just how. Note: These screenshots were recorded in the Facebook Carrier application on iOS.
Disable Facebook Messenger
Step 1: Faucet "People" in the bottom-right corner of the display.
Step 2: Tap "Active.".
Step 3: Touch the green button to switch off conversation and appear inactive. You can tap the switch once more to turn chat back on.
It deserves noting that you can still send messages while conversation is off, yet you won't have the ability to see your own presently "active" good friends.
