Facebook: Read other news on smartphone
You cannot read the "Other messages" on your smartphone using Facebook Messenger or the app. In this guide, we explain how you can still get your other messages on the go.
Facebook: Read "Other news" on your smartphone
All messages from people with whom you are not friends on Facebook end up in the Other folder. This protects you from spam, but on your smartphone you can only get these messages with a trick:
- Open the browser on your smartphone and go to the Facebook page.
- Log in to your account if you haven't already.
- Select the menu using the three small dots and activate the desktop version of Facebook for your smartphone browser.
- Now scroll as usual on the page and open the messages.
- There, swipe up to "More messages", tap on it and then select "Other messages".
