On Facebook you can add up to 1,000 people from all over the world to your friends list. But if you don't want everyone to know who you're friends with, you can hide your list.

Above Facebook old and current can be found friends as well as new friends from your own country or abroad. So over time, quite a few people accumulate in the friends list. If you want something more privacy you can hide your Facebook friends list. You can even do this in two different ways: If you only have access to the friends list for certain people want to hide, or if you want to deny anyone access to the Facebook friends list, you can do so.

Hide the Facebook friends list from selected people

  1. If you only want to hide your friends list from certain people, you can click on "Privacy Settings" under "Account" in the top right corner. A new page will then open. Under "Network on Facebook" select the link "Show settings".
  2. On this page you can now hide your friends list from selected people. To do this, click on the selection button to the right of "Show your friends list". Now you can click on "Custom". This will open a small window in which you can enter the names of the people from whom you want to hide your Facebook friends list.
  3. Under "These people", enter the full names of the people, separated by a comma who should not see your friends list and persist this change via the "Save settings" Button. The window will then close automatically and you can exit your privacy settings.
