How to See Who You Follow on Facebook in 3 Simple Steps

Finding your Facebook following list might seem tricky, but it’s actually quite straightforward once you know where to look. Let me walk you through the process, including some lesser-known tips that can make managing your follows much easier.

Accessing Your Following List on Desktop

First, head to your Facebook profile by clicking your name in the top navigation bar. Look for the “Following” tab under your cover photo – it’s usually right there alongside “Posts” and “About.” If you don’t see it immediately, click the “More” button, and you’ll find it in the dropdown menu.

When you click “Following,” you’ll see everyone you’ve chosen to follow, including people, pages, and groups. It’s worth noting that this list is different from your Friends list – you can follow people without being friends with them, which is particularly useful for public figures or content creators.

Finding Follows on Mobile

Using the Facebook mobile app? Tap your profile picture, scroll down a bit, and look for “See More About Info.” The Following section should be there. The mobile interface got updated in 2025, making it even more user-friendly, though some users tell me they still prefer managing their follows on desktop.

Managing Your Following List

Here’s a pro tip I love sharing: you can organize your follows into lists for better content control. Click the three dots next to any follow, and you’ll see options to:
– Add to favorites
– Unfollow
– Snooze for 30 days
– Change notification settings

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Sometimes your following list might seem incomplete. If this happens, try:
1. Refreshing the page
2. Logging out and back in
3. Clearing your browser cache
4. Checking if you’re using the latest version of the app

I’ve noticed that Facebook occasionally hides some followed pages if they’ve been inactive for a while. If you’re looking for something specific and can’t find it, try using the search function within your following list.

Privacy Considerations

Remember, your following list is typically public by default. I always recommend checking your privacy settings if you’d prefer to keep this information more private. You can adjust this by clicking the audience selector (usually a globe icon) next to your Following list.

Managing who you follow on Facebook is a great way to curate your news feed and ensure you’re seeing content that matters to you. Take a few minutes every few months to review and clean up your following list – your social media experience will be much more enjoyable for it!
