How To See Who Views Your Facebook Story Who Are Not Friends

✎ Key Points:

» Viewers who are not friends are classified as “Other Viewers,” and Facebook does not directly disclose their profile names.
» The platform only shows the number of Other Viewers, not their specific names. However, you may speculate on these viewers by checking the received friend requests section.

» If a Facebook friend blocks your account after watching your story, their name will be removed from the list of viewers, and only the number of viewers, i.e., 1 viewer, will be displayed.

How To See Who Views Your Facebook Story:

Follow the steps below:

Step 1: Tap on Story and Open Story

Here are the steps to uncover anonymous viewers on the Facebook story viewers list:

• Open the Facebook application on your mobile device. Ensure you are using the latest version of Facebook to avoid glitches.
• Log in to your account by entering the correct login credentials. Click on the Login button to access your account. Once logged in, you will be directed to the homepage.
• Click on your story to open and view it.

Step 2: Tap on Viewers List

Upon accessing the story, you will find the Eye icon located in the bottom left corner of the screen. This icon serves as the viewer indicator, allowing you to view the list of individuals who have seen that specific story. Simply click on the eye icon to open and check the list of viewers.

Step 3: See the Number of Other Viewers

After accessing the viewers’ list by clicking on the eye icon, you’ll observe the names of viewers who have viewed your story. The listed names correspond to viewers on your friend list.

To view the count of additional viewers, scroll down to the bottom of the list. However, only numerical representation will be visible for the names of these other viewers; individual names won’t be disclosed.

??‍♂️ Why Someone’s Name is Missing from Viewers?

If a Facebook friend blocks you right after viewing your story, their name will disappear from the viewer’s list. Instead of displaying the name, it will be categorized under “other viewers” and represented as 1 viewer without revealing the specific identity.

If you’ve adjusted your story’s privacy settings and still see only 1 viewer, it indicates that one of your friends has blocked you, or you’ve blocked them. As a result, their name is omitted from the viewers’ list, and only a numerical representation is shown, making it impossible to view their profile name.
