Facebook for iPhone and Android has got a major facelift in terms of the overall design and user interface. Hence, it’s not surprising to spot various settings in entirely different locations. One such change is seen in the way Facebook shows friend requests.
Unlike before, you now won’t find the option to check outgoing friend requests in the Facebook app. Outgoing friend requests are pending friend requests sent by you to other Facebook users.
Thankfully, you can still see sent friend requests on the Facebook app. However, you now have to navigate deep inside the app to view your outgoing requests.
The sent friend requests option makes it easier to find all the requests sent by you in one place. You can cancel the requests anytime and revert your decision. This way you can also track people who haven’t accepted your friend request.
How to View Outgoing Friend Requests on Facebook
- Go to the Menu tab, then tap Settings & Privacy > Settings.
- Scroll down and tap “Activity log” under the ‘Your activity’ section.
- On the ‘Activity Log‘ page, tap on Connections and then expand the Friends menu.
- Under Friends, tap ‘Sent friend requests‘.
- Here you can find all friend requests sent by you on Facebook.
