Meta has announced the ability to create multiple personal profiles on Facebook. This feature is currently rolling out globally. Also, Meta is planning to expand Messenger support for additional profiles in the coming months.

“Creating multiple personal profiles lets you easily organise who you share with and what content you see for the various parts of your life. Think one profile for the foodie scene you love and another one to keep up with your friends and family,” Meta said in a blogpost on September 21.

The ability to create multiple personal profiles is currently rolling out globally and will continue over the next few months. 

Users can choose a name and have an @username for up to four additional personal profiles. Also, they will be able to easily switch between their profiles, with no login required.

At launch, some Facebook features, such as Dating, Marketplace, Professional Mode and payments, will not be available to additional personal profiles. For now, messaging will be available within the Facebook app and on the web for additional personal profiles. The company is also planning to expand Messenger support for additional profiles in the coming months. Moreover, the option for an additional personal profile will be available only to eligible adult accounts.

When you create an additional personal profile, its settings are automatically set to default settings. This means that notification and privacy settings from one profile don’t carry over to the other profiles. 

“Additionally, some settings are managed separately for each profile, such as choosing who can see that profile’s posts or who can send friend requests to that profile. We recommend checking your privacy settings for each new profile you create, and you can update privacy settings for your profiles at any time,” Meta said.

Also, users’ main Facebook profile won’t show that they have additional personal profiles. 

It’s worth noting that if someone has recently or repeatedly violated the company’s policies, they will not be able to create additional profiles. If someone repeatedly violates the policies using any of their additional personal profiles, appropriate action will be taken on their account and all associated profiles.
