Open the Messenger app
To turn off active status on Messenger, open the Messenger app. Once you open the app, you’ll see the Chat tab and directly beneath it, you’ll find the Active tab.

This is a great way to manage your time, and to put limits on when you’re available for chatting. By turning off your active status, you can be sure that you won’t receive messages at inconvenient times.
Access Your Active Status Settings
You can access your Active Status settings to adjust who can see your availability. To stay private while managing the controls, here are 3 easy steps:
- In the Messenger app, go to your profile page.
- Click on the "Active Status" button.
- Select from the list of available options, which range from "Sharing with Everyone" to "Turning off Active Status."
Turn off Active Status
If you want maximum privacy, you can easily hide your availability by switching off your Active Status. To do this, just go to the settings on your Messenger app.
From there, you can control your message privacy, as well as your status. By turning off your Active Status, you can make sure that no one will be able to see when you’re online.
You can also customize who can and cannot see your status, so you can keep it open to just your friends or even set it so you can be seen by no one.
This way, you can ensure your privacy and control your status as you wish.
Manage Your Active Status For Specific Contacts
If you’re looking for an even greater level of control over your Messenger Active Status, you can manage it for specific contacts.
This allows you to address any privacy concerns you may have, as well as device limitations.
All you have to do is open a conversation with the contact you’d like to manage, and tap their name at the top of the screen.
Then, toggle the Active Status switch to the off position.
Once you’ve done this, the contact won’t be able to see when you were last active.
However, you will still be able to see the contact’s Active Status.
If you want to turn it back on, simply repeat the steps and switch the toggle to the on position.
