In the ever-evolving world of social media, privacy and content management remain crucial for users. Among various features, Facebook allows users to like posts or pages, but sometimes one might decide to unlike or remove likes for personal reasons. If you’re unsure how to do this, here’s a guide on how to remove likes on Facebook using both PC and mobile devices.
Removing Likes on Facebook using a PC
Step 1: Access Your Facebook Profile
– Log into your Facebook account.
– Click on your profile picture located in the top right corner to go to your profile.
Step 2: Go to the Activity Log
– Click on the button with three dots under your cover photo.
– Select ‘Activity Log’ from the drop-down menu.
Step 3: Filter Your Activity
– In the Activity Log, use the filters on the left side to select ‘Likes and Reactions.’
– You can navigate through months and years if you’re looking for an older like.
Step 4: Unlike Content

Removing Likes on Facebook Using Mobile
Step 1: Open the Facebook App
– Open your Facebook app on your mobile device.
– Tap on the three horizontal lines (menu) usually found at the bottom right for iOS or top right for Android devices.
Step 2: Access Your Profile
– Tap on your name at the top of the menu to visit your profile.
Step 3: Find Your Activity Log
– Once on your profile page, tap on ‘Activity Log’ which is found under your profile information.
Step 4: Filter Your Activities
– In your activity log, tap “Category” and then select ‘Likes and Reactions.’
– Like with desktop, you can search through different years and months.
Step 5: Remove Likes
– Scroll through the list of likes until you find what you want to remove.

Remember that once you unlike something, there is no undo button; should you change your mind later, you will have to go back and like that post or page again. Managing likes regularly can help keep your digital footprint clean so that it reflects your current interests and views. Unliking content is just one way of maintaining privacy and curating an online presence that aligns with who you are offline.
