How To Remove Myself as An Admin on Facebook Page? [Updated]

Managing a Facebook page doesn’t include managing posts, messages, and comments. But you have to understand many other sections of your page to deal with them when it is needed. For example, you may want to remove yourself from the admin panel.

In this regard, you need to learn how to remove myself as an admin on Facebook page. It can be because of multiple reasons a few of which I have mentioned below. I was facing complications in doing so and understanding this method.

So, I researched and found methods to do so on a computer (web app) and mobile app. Meanwhile, I have learned different tasks related to other social media channels like WhatsAppTwitter, and Instagram. Let me show you how to remove myself as an admin on Facebook page in this blog.

Reasons to Remove Myself as an Admin

Before learning the way to remove yourself from the Facebook page, you need to understand the reasons. Undoubtedly, you may have different reasons to do so. But I have seen that people are facing common reasons that I have mentioned below:

  • You may have a lot of work to do and face annoying notifications from your Facebook page.
  • It might be possible that you are moving from the company and don’t want to have access to their Facebook pages while leaving.
  • You may have multiple people to manage your page and want them to handle everything instead of getting annoying notifications.
  • It might be possible that you have hired someone in place of yours to manage your business page.

These are some reasons that I have heard from multiple users. Doesn’t matter what is the reason behind this removal, the process to remove will remain the same. Be mindful that you can also ban someone from the Facebook page if they are in the admin panel using the same approach.

Why Am I Unable to Remove Myself From the Admin Panel of Facebook Page?

Sometimes, I have seen that people are unable to remove themselves from the Facebook page. The only reason that is restricting them is solo admin. In simple words, if you are the solo admin of the page, you won’t be able to remove yourself from the list.

If you want to remove yourself, you have to add another person as an admin to your page. Then, you will get the option to remove access for yourself from the Facebook page. But if you are still facing the issue, you need to connect with Facebook support who will guide you in that specific circumstance.

It will be a process of a few minutes but it can save you from a huge loss like a data breach. Moreover, you just need to remember the password of the profile to remove access. If you don’t remember it, you won’t be able to remove access and have to face identity verification problems.
