How to Switch Facebook Profiles on Desktop

Hello Friends, Do you have Multiple Facebook Accounts? Or do you share your computer/laptop with someone and both of you are logged in to Facebook with the same device? Or do you have a profile particularly for work and one Personal Facebook Profile?

Whatever the case may be, if you use the same device as someone else for accessing Facebook, then you would be happy to know that the social networking platform has made it easy to switch between two accounts. However, note that this can only be done on the desktop and not on the app.

Facebook for desktop now has an Account Switcher button which appears right next to your profile name. The feature lets you add up to ten profiles on your device, so it should prove to be useful for family members who share a computer for logging in to Facebook.
