Download Article

If you maintain or manage multiple Facebook accounts, you may know that you cannot just log into them simultaneously in the same browser. Browsers keep some personal and login data, or “cookies,” to identify you in your session. These cookies enable you to go through all connected websites, services, or pages without having to login every time. However, if you want to log into multiple Facebook accounts at the same time, there are a few options you can try. We’ll also show you how to quickly switch between accounts on the mobile app or the Facebook website.

Things You Should Know

  • You can now easily switch between multiple accounts from the Facebook website or the app.
  • Use both the Facebook app and the Facebook mobile browser to log into multiple accounts at once on your mobile device.
  • Use incognito mode to log into multiple accounts on the same browser.
  • Use different browsers, such as Safari, Firefox, and Chrome to sign into multiple accounts on your computer.

  1. You can set up the mobile app version of Facebook so that you can easily switch between several accounts. To get started, launch the Facebook app on your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone or tablet. If you’re currently logged in, tap the ☰ Menu button at the bottom of the screen (iPhone or iPad) or the top of the screen (Android). Scroll down and tap Log out.
    • This method won’t let you log into multiple accounts at once. It will just make it easier to switch between multiple accounts from within the app.
  2. Once you log out, you’ll see your account and profile picture listed on the app’s home screen. Underneath that, tap the option to Log into another account.

  1. Visit https://www.facebook.com/ and log out. Facebook now makes it easy to switch between multiple accounts in the same browser while you’re signed into Facebook. To get started, visit the Facebook website. If you’re already logged in, sign out by clicking your profile picture in the top right corner of the page, then selecting Log Out.
    • Keep in mind that this method won’t let you log into multiple accounts at once. It just makes it easier to move between them.
  2. Once you log out, you’ll be taken to a login screen. You should see your regular Facebook account listed under Recent Logins. You’ll also have the option to add another account. This will allow you to easily choose whichever account you want to log into from the main login page.
    • Only do this on devices you trust so that strangers can’t log into your Facebook account.
  3. Type in your login credentials for your other Facebook account in the window that pops up. Depending on how you signed up, you may need to enter your mobile number, email address, or username. Type in your password and click Log In.
  4. Once you’ve logged in with more than one account in the same browser, you’ll be able to access the other accounts from the Facebook menu while you’re signed in. Click your profile picture in the top right corner of the window to open a dropdown menu.
  5. This option will be located near the top of the menu, under your name and profile picture. You’ll see your current profile as well as any Pages associated with it.
  6. This will open a new menu window listing the other accounts you’ve logged into on your current browser.

  1. Most desktop browsers have an incognito mode or private browsing option that allows you to browse without using cookies.

    • Depending on your browser, you may see an icon that looks like a bandit mask or a secret agent hat and glasses at the top of the window. You’ll also a see a message telling you that you’ve gone into Incognito or Private mode.
    • You can also open a new incognito window by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P for Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS or ⌘-Shift-P for Mac on your keyboard.

For instance, in the mobile version of Chrome and Firefox, tap the Tabs button at the bottom of the screen (which looks like a square displaying your current number of tabs), then tap the Incognito or Private tab at the top of the screen. Then, press the + button to open a new private tab.
