Blocking People and Applications


If you want to stop certain people or applications from bothering you on Facebook, you can block them. When you block someone, they can no longer communicate with you or send Friend Requests. You can even block entire applications if you wish to stop receive invitations to certain apps and games.

  • To access your Blocking Settings, navigate to your Account Settings and then select Blocking in the Navigation pane.
