How To Disable Chat Heads Bubbles On Facebook Messenger

Here's how to disable chat head notification bubbles on the Facebook Messenger application.
Message bubbles typically are floating icons that appear when someone texts you on your phone. Instead of going all the way to the Facebook Messenger app, you can tap on the bubble to see the received message.
It's an easier way to chat with your friends and family because you can easily access the chat on the home screen. However, if you find them annoying, you can turn them off from the Facebook Messenger settings.
To do this:
Launch Facebook Messenger
Tap on the three horizontal lines at the upper left corner
Tap on the Settings icon
Scroll down and tap on the slider icon next to Chat Heads to disable it
Once you disable it, you'll no longer see the chat bubbles appear.

Thank you so much, straight to the point, that's the kind of tutorials we love and need!

[@sarahsutubeusername]

Thank you. They get in the way of what I'm doing. I had them off and somehow they turned back on. I looked around but did not find the solution so I was just frustrated for weeks. Then your video popped up. Thank you so so much. Chatheads are like punishment like a fly on the screen. You have made my existence better. You also have a beautiful calm voice and gave clear quick instructions which made this video perfect. Thanks again.

[@marianb.9133]

I second every word you are saying!

Perfect. Straight, simple, to the point. You are brilliant! Thank you.

[@catherinerobinson6278]

[@waterfrontmaestro2028]

Thanks for this great video! Sooooo annoyed by these chat heads that won't go away. They stay always on top. Every time I check my texts or emails, I have to keep moving the chat heads around because there is no way to close them. The Empire wants to own you!

[@WebproeducationOrgTechnology]

Awesome!

[@obfuscated3090]

I subscribed for the quality of your video. Keep doing them this way.

Thank you very helpful tutorial video.

[@WebproeducationOrgTechnology]

Glad you liked it

[@vulcanville]

thanks for posting this. just a note that for me it now calls chat heads, "bubbles". It's a moving target, of course. FB wants you to just accept their dominance.

[@cskmoore]

Thank you!!

[@WebproeducationOrgTechnology]

You're welcome!

[@joshboado1250]

... thank you !!!

[@mollago]

After following your steps in the messenger app, "chat heads" shows as "bubbles" in Android 13. Turning off bubbles fixed it. The only reason they chabged the name was to make it harder to turn off.

[@marjiaakter3272]

Vaiya amr chat head open hoy na.... 😢😢Samsung Galaxy A03 core a plz plz reply

[@unsworthsteve]

What on earth were Meta/Facebook thinking when they developed the chat heads feature. I get far more than one 'bubble' on my screen - I get a whole row obscuring about 15% of the screen. Hugely annoying

[@blueboy1]

thank you. nothing worse than seeing my ex face on my phone all the time.

[@juliehathaway3898]

I did what you said but I am still getting chat heads

[@jacksonclinton349]

It's now called bubbles but is otherwise the same awful feature disabled in the same way

[@emonkhan1443]

It's now called bubbles

[@DanM-pw9nl]

In 2024 settings is in the bottom left. Go to it and disable Chat heads there as usual

[@DanM-pw9nl]

I mean bottom right

[@SnowCrust]

Its different now update ur vid

[@Existentialist946]

These are a complete pain, which makes using smartphone a chore. I'm just going to delete fb messenger, it's the only way.

[@Existentialist946]

I don't have any 3 lines in the top left corner. Stupid instructions.
