Facebook: Set a temporary profile picture - how it works

If you just want to post a temporary profile picture on Facebook, you can do it in just a few steps. In this article, we show you how to do this.

First you have to log in to Facebook and move the mouse over your profile picture.
Now click on "Update profile picture". You can select a new picture by uploading a picture or taking a new picture.
It is important that you click on the "Activate as temporary" tab.
You can select the time interval for how long the profile picture should appear before the old profile picture is displayed again.
Afterwards, be sure to press "Save", otherwise you will have to start the process again.
Note: Please keep in mind that your temporarily uploaded profile picture can still be seen in your public album "Profile pictures" after the set time.

We will show you how to delete your Facebook account in our next article.
