Facebook Shortcut Bar Not Showing / Missing - Fixed!

  • Facebook uses the shortcut bar at the bottom of the app as a way for you to quickly and easily navigate to different sections of Facebook. However, we've gotten complaints that the shortcut bar is missing or not showing up for some people. Not only did Facebook move the shortcut bar to the bottom but they changed the settings and where they're located. In this video, I'll walk you through where the shortcut bar is, how to modify it in settings and what to do if the icons aren't showing up at all. If they are completely gone it may be because of some sort of bug in the app so offloading the app will solve this problem. In total, you should have the ability to have the following shortcut icons: Home, Profile, Marketplace, Groups, Notifications (friend requests included), and lastly the menu button.

    I’m beginning to think so many of us that lost this feature on our Facebook accounts ... I think Facebook censored us all. It’s all too much of a coincidence . When I go to live video s the old version of Facebook now , I don’t have the same access to the videos I was watching before I lost Watch on my Facebook

      My wife and I both had identical Galaxy S9s. Our Facebook apps were both fully updated and were still completely different. My shortcuts randomly changed and were missing some, but all hers worked. It even put my bar on the bottom at one point and hers never did that. It's infuriating.

    As of 1/10/24, this doesn't work. There is no shortcut category under settings after following these steps. Deleted the app and nothing changed. However, this worked: in FB app, under Settings & Privacy, go to Settings, then under Preferences go to Navigation Bar. There is no more shortcut bar. Then touch Customize the Bar. Then under Navigation Bar you can PIN only 3 things. These will show up at the bottom of the FB app. You can hide things you don’t want to see there. The nice thing about choosing 3 is the other things you don’t need to see will disappear because you can only see 5 icons before the menu hamburger in the right corner. if anyone finds a way to create a shortcut bar when there is none at this point, please tell me!

    I have always hated Facebook trying to force people to be available 24/7 so I have mobile version on my crummy cheap cell phone (I keep a cheap phone so I don't get scroll addiction lol). I also have an iPad 7th gen. On desktop, on the iPad app, on my cell phone browser, AND logging into my Facebook on my friends Android (who finally was able to find her own settings after the notifications TURNED ON BY THEMSELVES while she was searching sections and trying to help me), and Facebook DOES NOT HAVE A SHORTCUT SETTINGS LIST FOR ME. It doesn't exist. My settings always physically look different from every single friend or family member I compare to. So trying to turn the absolutely horrendous notifications OFF isn't possible. When I log into my friend's phone, I can tap and hold for the settings to pop up to either disable the dot notifications or delete the Watch button altogether, BUT THEY DO NOT HOLD. Facebook is punishing me, I swear, but how and why? They shouldn't have any right to give me (literally) COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SETTINGS THAN ANYONE ELSE. My whole entire browser just changed like 5 days ago and ever since then I hate Facebook so much I want to cry. I am sick and tired of their worthless algorithms not understanding what I like AT ALL and putting me in "recommended for you" categories that go off literally every five minutes. A quick Google search shows I'm not the only one, either. If their algorithms worked they'd know all I want is to scroll quietly like a wallflower and be left alone because my whole life I've had the same account and always disable every single new notification setting immediately. This whole notification BAR is just the worst update they've done yet; I just wish they'd get our pages the same before continually trying to change them.
