To adjust Facebook privacy on an iPhone or iPad, open Facebook’s Settings & privacy, choose Settings, then look under Audience and visibility. That area groups controls for your profile, posts, stories, Reels, tagging, and who can find or contact you. The exact labels and available options can vary by app version, profile type, or account. [Facebook Help Center]

Open Facebook’s privacy settings

  1. Open the Facebook app and tap the menu or profile control. Its position and appearance may differ in the current iPhone or iPad app.
  2. Tap Settings & privacy, then Settings.
  3. Find Audience and visibility and open the section relevant to the information or content you want to control. Facebook lists profile details, finding and contacting you, posts, stories, Pages, Reels, followers and public content, profile and tagging, and blocking among these areas. [Facebook Help Center]

If the labels do not match, use the settings search if it appears in your app, or look through the category names for the control you need. Do not assume that a setting for one type of content also controls another.

Choose who can see new posts and stories

Before sharing, check the audience selector for that post or story. Facebook lets you choose an audience for things you share; the selector for one content type should not be treated as a universal default for every other type. [Facebook Help Center]

Choose the narrowest audience that fits what you are sharing. Depending on the content and options offered, choices may include Public, friends, selected people, or only you. Check the selector each time if the audience matters, rather than relying on a remembered setting.

Yojaro 4Pack Silicone Suction Phone Case Mount, Silicon Adhesive Smartphones Stand Sticky, Hands-Free Phone Accessories Holder for Selfies and Videos (Black & White & Translucent & Light Pink)

Each suction cup phone mount is 3.15 inches long and 2.17 inches wide, with 24 independent suction cups providing a stronger and more stable suction force, so you don't have to worry about your phone falling during use.
  • 【Back of Phone Suction Grip】Remove the adhesive film on the phone suction cup and stick it on the phone case. You can then fix the phone on any smooth surface, which is very convenient. (The phone suction cup cannot be removed and reused after being attached to the phone case. It is recommended to attach it to a regular phone case, not a valuable one.)
  • 【Widely Used】Our non-slip silicone phone sticky grip mount attaches to almost any flat phone case and make it compatible with common mobile phones such as iPhone and Android.You can shoot, watch videos or video calls in the kitchen, gym, dance studio, bathroom and other places.

  • 【Note】You can fix the phone suction cup on a smooth surface such as a mirror or glass. If necessary, wipe the suction cup with a damp cloth to obtain stronger suction. Before releasing your hand, make sure the phone is firmly fixed. (Not applicable to rough walls, wooden surfaces, and other uneven surfaces)

Review your profile and who can find you

Profile details and contact information

In Audience and visibility, review profile details and How people find and contact you. Check the visibility of the details you have added and the ways people can locate or contact your account. Available controls can differ by profile type. [Facebook Help Center]

Friends list

Facebook places the friends-list audience control under How people find and contact you. Narrowing the audience limits who can see the friends section on your profile, but it does not control what your friends choose to show on their profiles. Mutual friends may still be visible.

Apple EarPods Headphones with USB-C Plug, Wired Ear Buds with Built-in Remote to Control Music, Phone Calls, and Volume
  • SUPERIOR COMFORT — Unlike traditional circular ear buds, the design of EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other ear bud–style headphones.
  • HIGH-QUALITY AUDIO — The speakers inside EarPods have been engineered to maximize sound output and minimize sound loss, which means you get high-quality audio.
  • BUILT-IN REMOTE — EarPods with USB-C plug also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a pinch of the cord.
  • COMPATIBILITY — Works with all devices that have a USB-C port.
  • INTEGRATED MICROPHONE — A built-in microphone precisely captures your voice while you’re on the phone, taking a FaceTime call, or summoning Siri — so you’re always heard loud and clear.

Public profile information

Facebook describes profile and cover photos, featured photos, and feed updates about basic information changes as public profile information. Review the available controls for who can like or comment on that information if you want to limit interaction with it. [Facebook Help Center]

Control tagged posts and profile review

Tagged content has two separate audience considerations: the original poster’s audience and your setting for tagged posts. A setting on your account does not replace the original poster’s audience. Facebook also describes an option to add friends or other selected people to the audience when they otherwise could not see a post you are tagged in. The help page says this setting defaults to Friends, so inspect the current option in your account. [Facebook Help Center]

Set a separate audience for Reels

Check the individual Reel before publishing, particularly if you are sharing across Instagram and Facebook. [Facebook Help Center]

Limit Facebook’s access to your device location

Facebook’s in-app audience controls do not grant or remove iOS access to your device location. To change the app’s location permission, open iOS Settings, then Privacy & Security, Location Services, and Facebook. Choose While Using the App, Ask Next Time, or Never, as available on your device. This controls Facebook’s app access to device location; it does not change the audience of a post or remove location information already shared. [Facebook Help Center]

Apps and websites

Under Apps and Websites, review connected apps and the permissions they have. If an app is allowed to publish on your behalf and you no longer want that, remove that permission or the app connection where the option is offered. Facebook notes that not every app has permission to publish. [Facebook Help Center]

Facebook’s in-app browser

If you use Facebook’s in-app browser, review its controls for browsing data and autofill. Clearing data there applies to that browser; it does not mean all activity on Facebook has been deleted. [Facebook Help Center]

A practical way to prioritize settings

  • Audience: Decide how broad the audience should be for each item, from public to a smaller group where the control allows.
  • Content type: Review posts, stories, Reels, profile details, and tagged posts independently.
  • Who controls it: Some settings are yours; tagged-post reach can also depend on the original poster, friends control their own profile visibility, and iOS controls device location access.
  • Scope: Distinguish settings for future sharing from controls on an existing post, app permission, or device permission.
