View As Facebook
Have you ever wished for the capacity to check out the mirror, and also see yourself the way that others see you? Well on Facebook, you can! Right here's how to inspect what your Facebook profile (additionally called your Timeline) appears like when others watch it. This is a simple means to ensure that your Facebook personal privacy setups are doing their task.
VIEW YOUR TIMELINE AS SOMEONE ELSE
1. Click on your name to get to your Timeline, otherwise known as your profile page.2. Towards the right of your large cover photo, you’ll see a few buttons – Update Info, View Activity Log, and three little dots. Click the dots and choose “View As….”
Or, you can use the Privacy Shortcut button near the top right, as shown here. Choose “Who can see my stuff?” And then “What do other people see on my timeline?”
3. You’ll now see your timeline as if you were a member of the “Public”. In this case public means someone who is logged into Facebook who is not your friend or otherwise associated with you.
If you’ve set privacy settings judiciously there should not be much shown here. (If you see more information here than you are comfortable with, go back to your Timeline, click Update Info and then edit the privacy settings for any portion of your profile.)
4. Now click “View as Specific Person”. Once you start typing a name, you can choose from the names as they appear. Then you’ll scroll down to see what your friend would see when viewing your timeline.
