You know how when you go to your Facebook app on your phone and slide the screen over to the left and there is a list of several of your friends marked "favorites" and it shows how many minutes or hours ago they were on Facebook?

Well, I'm just wondering if there is any way to deactivate yourself from that list so others can't see that info? (Besides deleting your Facebook app from your phone)

I could be wrong, but I think you have to go into your FB and turn off the chat option. I don't know how to do it from the phone, but if you do it on your computer, your settings should apply across the board, shouldn't they?

You know, I WAS thinking the same thing, that it might have something to do with chat and I did turn off the chat option on the computer today. I will have hubby check and see if I am showing up on his phone. Thanks!

Well guess what JeanLouiseFinch, dh checked his phone and turning off the chat thing on my desktop doesn't work. He can still see when I was on there. And when I look at the chat thing on my phone, it doesn't give me any options! {#emotions_dlg.thumbdown}

I log out every time, I don't ever stay logged in all the time. Maybe that will work.

You log out on your desktop or your phone?

At the top on the left side there is a ""gear"" (that's what FB calls it.) Click the gear to turn the chat off/on.

Is this done on your phone?

I am looking on my phone and I can't find the ""gear"" thing anywhere.
