Hello there. If you are looking for a way to delete your Facebook account activity log, then kindly follow this quick guide on how to do so in 2024.
Facebook, like other social media platforms, has features that make it easier to use and make it more convenient and fun for its subscribers.
Some of these features come as a default setting that can be changed later depending on the user’s choice, while others can be downloaded into an existing account.
The activity log is one of the features that has made Facebook a reliable home; it allows users to access the history of what has been done in their account depending on the time period of their choice.
At times, people delete their activity logs for security reasons. Whatever your reason for wanting to carry out this activity log wipe-out exercise, just know WE have your back.
Deleting Facebook activity logs can be done as fast as possible, and in this article, I will show you how.
A quick method to delete Facebook Activity Log:
Go to Activity Log. In the right section, click on the More link (just under Photos, likes, and comments), then click on the Search option.
You will see an option “Clear Searches.“.. click on that and you are done!!!
How to remove a Search from the Activity Log
To remove a search:
- Open your activity log, click More, and then select Search from the left column
- Click
next to the search entry you want to remove - Click Delete
next to the search entry you want to removeWe found a few browser extensions and user scripts that can remove Facebook activities from the activity log.
Unfortunately, they either worked briefly or just hid the posts instead of deleting them. Writing a user script for this task is challenging because Facebook constantly updates its site to counter removal tools.
As a user wanting to remove past embarrassments from your Facebook timeline, you have only two options.
Delete your Facebook activity one by one
If you still need your account, this is the only way to do it. You can either go through your past posts by year in your timeline and remove them or use the little-known tool on this day to find your old stuff on Facebook and delete it.
The only downside is that you’ll have to repeat it for a few days to search for and remove every old stuff you have posted on your timeline. Is that regret? 😛 Cool! Everyone feels the same when looking at their old posts.
Another option is to use a macro to finish the job, but with Facebook changing from time to time, it is impossible to get hold of one that does the job. Try your own luck with iMacros for Chrome and Firefox. Here is the macro that worked for us in 2013. You’ll have to run this macro from the activity page.
VERSION BUILD=8820413 RECORDER=FX TAB T=1 SET !ERRORIGNORE YES URL GOTO=https://www.facebook.com/<your user name>/allactivity WAIT SECONDS=2 URL GOTO=javascript:window.scrollBy(0,40000) TAG POS=1 TYPE=I ATTR=CLASS:mrs<SP>_2fmu<SP>img<SP>sp_QBCOUI41A2w<SP>sx_ab5bdb&&TXT: TAG POS=2 TYPE=SPAN ATTR=TXT:Delete WAIT SECONDS=2 TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON FORM=class:_s ATTR=TXT:Delete<SP>Post WAIT SECONDS=3
On the front of the extension, there’s a shady one called “F___book Post Manager.” It has many fake and genuine reviews claiming it does the job. Check it out at your own risk.
Warning: The extension forces you to pay, disable antivirus, stop other extensions, and create a Google Plus account for rating.
