Deactivate Facebook in the Android App
It takes only a few steps to deactivate your account, and you can reactivate it even faster. You can also have Facebook automatically reactivate your profile after one to seven days. To reactivate Facebook, all you have to do is log in to the app, so make sure you remember your credentials.
Deactivate Facebook Account in a Mobile Browser
You can also disable your account in any mobile browser. Although the interface looks a little different, the process is exactly the same, so follow the steps above to deactivate Facebook.
What Happens When You Deactivate Facebook?
Deactivating your account disables your profile and removes your name and profile image from most of the things you’ve posted on Facebook. Your friends will still see you on their friend list and on messages you’ve sent them. Reactivating the account restores everything to how it was. When you deactivate your Facebook account, you can still use Messenger (see above instructions). Friends can also invite you to events, ask you to join groups, and tag you in photos. Facebook will continue sending you notifications unless you disable them.
