How to Unblock Someone on Facebook

Blocked someone on Facebook and now you’re having second thoughts? No worries—unblocking them is super easy, whether you’re on a computer or using the Facebook app. Here’s how to do it, plus what happens when you hit that Unblock button.

What Happens When You Unblock Someone?

Once you unblock someone, they’ll be able to see your profile, posts, and even message you—depending on your privacy settings. But unblocking doesn’t automatically make you friends again. If you want to reconnect, you’ll have to send a new friend request. Also, they won’t get any notification that you unblocked them, so no awkward “Hey, I noticed you unblocked me” moments.

How to Unblock Someone on Facebook (Desktop)

If you’re using a computer, follow these steps:

  1. Log into Facebook – Open Facebook and sign in.
  2. Go to Settings – Click your profile picture in the top-right corner, then select “Settings & Privacy” > “Settings.”
  3. Find Blocking Settings – On the left menu, click “Blocking.”
  4. Locate the Blocked User – You’ll see a list of everyone you’ve blocked under “Block users.”
  5. Unblock Them – Click “Unblock” next to their name, then confirm your decision.

And that’s it! They’ll be able to see your profile again, but remember—you’re not automatically friends.

How to Unblock Someone on Facebook (Mobile)

If you’re using the Facebook app on iPhone or Android, here’s what to do:

  1. Open the Facebook App – Log in if you’re not already.
  2. Go to Settings – Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the bottom-right (iPhone) or top-right (Android).
  3. Select “Settings & Privacy” – Then tap “Settings.”
  4. Find “Blocking” – Scroll down and tap “Blocking.”
  5. Unblock the Person – Locate their name and tap “Unblock.”
  6. Confirm It – A pop-up will ask you to confirm. Tap “Unblock” again.

Now they’ll be able to interact with you again—unless you adjust your privacy settings to limit what they can see.

Things to Keep in Mind When Unblocking Someone

  • They won’t get a notification – So they won’t know unless they check.
  • You won’t be friends again automatically – If you were friends before, you have to send a new request.
  • Old messages don’t disappear – Your previous conversations in Messenger will still be there.
  • They can interact with you again – If your settings allow, they can see your posts, tag you, and message you.

And that’s it! Unblocking someone on Facebook is quick and easy, and you’re in control of whether you reconnect or just leave them unblocked. If you need followers after blocking some, you can buy facebook followers.
