How To Disable Audio And Video Calls In Messenger

Let's disable Facebook Messenger audio and video calls so no one will be able to call you in the app.
Thanks for watching. Do you have any question? Leave them in the comments below or shoot me an email.

I have activated calls and video chats by mistake so many times, I’m glad to know how to prevent them 😂

[@andreacichowski1993]

Thank you. Even though I like having friends on Facebook I have no idea why they would audio call me since I never met them. I'm a shy person and would rather them just writing a private message and not call.

[@imsaved65]

Thanks! Really! I couldn’t figure it out 👍🏻

Be advised, this method you outline does NOT work. In fact a person can even delete the messenger app off their phone entirely, and Facebook still will connect people's video calls.

Not working at best / false fake information to get more views at most. Try doing this and ask someone of your "friends" to call you, the annoying sound will still go through and you will receive a pop up immediately.

Thank you! Super annoying to receive unwanted calls via messenger!

This doesn’t work

[@LifeAskmarie]

Right it didn’t work for me either they still calling

[@DeannaHiggs]

How. To. Get. Rid the. Other call on messager

[@xpprez]

does this actually prevent people from calling?

[@BradHines]

It does not. I have done both this, and even deleting the Messenger app altogether, Facebook still connects any calls from anyone who is a "friend" on facebook, unless you manually block each person.

You can individually mute a person or mute just messages or mute calls and messages until you change it. So none of their calls or messages will alert you.

This works to prevent clumsy fingers from mistakenly automatically calling someone else without giving individual permission for Messenger to use your microphone or camera
