Can anyone figure out how to actually turn this off? After bouncing around in Facebook's help docs I found the steps[1] but don't see the option.
Click the down arrow at the top right, then Settings. There _should_ be a "Face Recognition" item in the left but not for me.
This is so frustrating and part of me thinks they just disable this for a bit so 90% of people forget.

- ragerino 7y agoI checked it in the Android app, and I was able to find it and it was already deactivated. I remember doing this a while ago. But it was burried in Facebooks settings. Here is how you can do it on Android. 1. Click on the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top toolbar. 2. Scroll down, expand "Settings & Privacy" if not expanded, and click "Settings". Don't fall for those privacy shortcuts. Facebook will hide a lot of settings from you. 3. Scroll down and you should see the " Face Recognition" entry in the Privacy category. Hope this helps. PS: I personally find it lame, that Facebook needs to make it as much confusing as possible to find those settings.
