How to Check Your Facebook Email on Your Phone

Using Your Email Account

Most of us use Facebook to connect with friends and stay in touch with them. Some use it to update statuses while others use it to connect to long-lost friends. However, Facebook isn’t just for messaging your friends. You can use it to mail other people, just like you do with Gmail, using your own Facebook email ID. All you need is have your own Facebook account.

3
Log in. Enter your username and password on the Facebook login page.
4
Go to your Facebook inbox. It is the message bubbles icon that is located between the Facebook logo and the search field.
5
Access your mails. Click on the “Other” folder to access your mail. You can find the “Other” folder at the bottom of the message screen.
- You cannot access the “Other” folder through your Facebook app on your phone, so it is important to use your phone browser for this instead.
6
Select a message. You will probably see a lot of unread messages from different people. You can read the message by clicking on the Message box.
7
Reply to the message. Click on the Reply box if you want to reply to the message. Type your message then send it.

Method 2 of 2:

Using Your Email Account

1
Go to your email provider. Click on your phone browser to open it then type in the primary email account address that is used with your Facebook.com (the mail ID you used to sign up with Facebook), for example, gmail.com.
- If your email provider has an app, like Gmail or Yahoo! Mail, you can launch the app instead.
2
Log into your email account. Type in your username/email address and password on the fields provided to log in.
3
Check your mail. When you signed up on Facebook, you used a primary email address, and the emails your contact send to your @facebook.com account now get directly forwarded to your primary mail address. Check your inbox for any Facebook emails that have been forwarded to your mail ID.
4
Open the Facebook mail. Just select the mail that comes from @facebook.com, and click on it to open it.
