To use the Facebook app, you need to log in to your primary account from it to handle it from there. From the Google Play Store or App Store, you need to install the Facebook lite app.

Once you’ve installed the Facebook lite app, you need to use the Facebook lite app for logging into your second account. If you don’t have a second account, you need to create a second account on the Facebook lite app and then use the second account on the Facebook lite app.

In that way, you’ll be able to check and use two different Facebook accounts at the same time and on the same device. You can keep the Facebook app in the recent tabs while you’re handling your second account and vice versa.
