Extension summary

Have people been mad at you because they noticed you saw their message but didn't respond to it? Have you ever wished you can use the messenger without people noticing you have read their messages? Do you just want to be Unseen?

After experiencing these issues all on our own we decided to develop something which solves these problems.

How does Unseen work?

Download Unseen from the Chrome Webstore Start using Facebook without any worries about your friends knowing that you read their messages.

Unseen will completely remove the “seen” feature from the messenger. So your friends won’t be able to tell if you read their messages.

Our extension does not remove the “seen at” feature on both facebook.com and messenger.com for you, so you are still able to see when your friends read your messages, but they can't see when you read their message.

I love facebook Unseen. I receive a lot of messages daily, some from friends, some from unknown individuals, and I am a busy woman. I prefer to reply to messages on my own time, and not feel pressured to reply when unconvenient. So helpful for giving me back some time and freedom!
