I. Introduction
Blocking someone on Messenger is an easy way to avoid unwanted messages or spam. However, it can be frustrating when you accidentally block someone or want to reconnect with someone you previously blocked. Fortunately, unblocking someone on Messenger is a simple process.
In this article, we will provide step-by-step instructions on how to unblock someone on Messenger.
II. Step 1: Open Messenger and go to privacy settings
The first step to unblocking someone on Messenger is to open the app and go to your privacy settings.
To find privacy settings, click on your profile picture in the top left corner of the screen. From there, select “Privacy” located under “Settings.”
Next, scroll down to find the “Blocked People” list and click on it to access the list.
III. Step 2: Find the person you want to unblock
Once you have accessed the “Blocked People” list, you need to find the person you want to unblock.
You can scroll through the list, or you can use the search bar at the top and enter the person’s name to quickly find them.
Before unblocking the person, double-check that you have the right person’s name.
IV. Step 3: Unblock the person
Now that you have found the person you want to unblock, you can unblock them by clicking on the “Unblock” button next to their name.
You will need to confirm the unblock action before it takes effect.
V. What if the person isn’t on your block list?
It is possible that the person you want to unblock isn’t on your block list because they have also blocked you. If this is the case, there are two solutions.
One option is to ask a mutual friend to unblock both of you, or you can message the person and ask them to unblock you.
VI. Other possible solutions
If unblocking the person doesn’t work, there is one more solution you can try.
As a last resort, you can try deleting and reinstalling the Messenger app. This will reset all settings, including your block list and conversation history. However, this should only be used as a last resort as you will lose all chat history and other data.
VII. Conclusion
As you can see, unblocking someone on Messenger is a straightforward process. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can quickly unblock someone and reconnect.
If you accidentally blocked someone, or if you just need to unblock someone for any reason, you can do so easily using the steps provided.
