how to hide facebook mutual friends Related answers

To hide your mutual friends on Facebook, you can adjust your privacy settings to control who can see this information. Here’s how you can do it:
On Desktop:
1. Open Facebook and log into your account.
2. Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and select “Settings & Privacy” then “Settings.”
3. In the left sidebar, click “Privacy.”
4. Under the “How People Find and Contact You” section, find the option “Who can see your friends list?”
5. Click “Edit” next to this option.
6. From the drop-down menu, choose who you want to be able to see your friends list. You can select “Friends,” “Only Me,” or create a custom setting. If you select “Only Me,” your mutual friends will be hidden from others.
On Mobile (iOS/Android):
1. Open the Facebook app and log into your account.
2. Tap the three horizontal lines (menu icon) in the bottom-right (iOS) or top-right (Android) corner.
3. Scroll down and tap “Settings & Privacy,” then tap “Settings.”
4. Under the “Privacy” section, tap “Privacy Settings.”
5. Find the “How People Find and Contact You” section and tap “Who can see your friends list?”
6. Choose “Only Me” or another option based on your preference.
By setting your friends list to “Only Me,” this will also apply to your mutual friends, as others won’t be able to see your friend connections. However, mutual friends may still be visible in certain situations, depending on their privacy settings.
Note: Mutual friends will always be visible in certain contexts, like when you interact with someone in a group or event. In those cases, Facebook might display your mutual connections, regardless of your privacy settings.
