How to manage which accounts are in your Accounts Centre

Updated:a week ago
Threads and WhatsApp in Accounts Centre is not available everywhere.

If you aren't already logged in to the account that you want to add on your mobile device, we'll use the email address or phone number from the account you are logged in to to prefill that information for the account you want to add.

You'll need at least two accounts (this can be a combination of Facebook, Instagram, Meta, WhatsApp and/or Threads accounts, although it cannot be a combination of just a Meta and a WhatsApp account, or just a Meta and a Threads account) to set up your Accounts Centre and to enable connected experiences.

Add account

To add accounts to an Accounts Centre on your phone, tablet or computer:

  1. Navigate to Accounts Centre.
  2. Tap or click Accounts or Manage accounts.
  3. If you don't have any accounts added to Accounts Centre, tap or click Add accounts and follow the on-screen instructions.

Move an account out of an Accounts Centre

To move accounts out of an Accounts Centre on your phone, tablet or computer:

  1. Navigate to Accounts Centre.
  2. Tap or click Accounts or Manage accounts.
  3. Tap or click Remove next to the account that you want to remove.

When you remove an account from an Accounts Centre, any profiles associated with that account will also be removed.

You can also learn how to keep your account secure to prevent it from being hacked, or recover your account on a Meta platform in the Account recovery and support hub.

Account suggestions we might make

When you set up your Accounts Centre, we may suggest an account for you to add. For example, if you've set up your Accounts Centre with your Instagram account on your mobile device, and you're logged in to your Facebook account on the same device, we may suggest that you add that Facebook account to your Accounts Centre.

Note: You can only add one Facebook account to your Accounts Centre. If you'd like to add a different Facebook account to your Accounts Centre, you'll need to remove your current Facebook account first. Then you can add a different Facebook account.
