How To Restrict Someone To Add You To A Group On Facebook?
To restrict someone from adding you to groups on Facebook, you cannot directly prevent this action since group admins have control over inviting members. However, you can manage who sees your posts and profile information by adding individuals to your Facebook Restricted list. This setting ensures that those on your restricted list will only see public posts and profile details.
Here's how to add someone to your Facebook Restricted list:
Desktop Instructions
- Visit facebook.com and sign in.
- Navigate to the "Friends" section.
- Choose "Custom Lists."
- Select "Restricted."
- Click the "Add/Remove" button.
- Check the names of the people you want to add to the restricted list.
- Click "Save" to confirm.
Mobile App Instructions
- Open the Facebook app on your mobile device.
- Go to the profile of the person you want to add to the restricted list.
- Tap the "Friends" button.
- Choose "Edit Friend List."
- Tap "Restricted" to add them to the list.
Please note that adding someone to your Restricted list does not prevent them from inviting you to groups, but it limits the content they see on your profile. To remove someone from your restricted list, follow the same steps and uncheck the "Restricted" option.
