Other viewers on your Facebook featured collection

When you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you may see an “Others” category.

Tap on “Others” to learn more about it.

In a nutshell, “Others” are views from people who are not your friends on Facebook.

On the other hand, “Viewers” are views from people who are your friends on Facebook.

The views from people who are not your friends on Facebook are anonymous.

Unfortunately, there is no way to see the names of other viewers unless you’re friends with them on Facebook.

This is because Facebook keeps them anonymous.

However, you can see the total number of other viewers (e.g. Others • 7).

“7” indicates that 7 people who are not friends with you on Facebook have viewed your collection.

What is a featured collection on Facebook?

A featured collection (also known as a featured section) is similar to highlights on Instagram.

It allows you to add a collection of photos or videos to your Facebook profile that people can view.

If you remove a photo or video from your featured collection, it will not be permanently deleted.

Instead, it can be found where you originally selected it from.

Keep in mind that featured photos are public and anyone can view them.

Can you see who viewed your featured collection on Facebook?

Yes, you can see who viewed your featured collection on Facebook.

You can only see the total number of “Other viewers”.

Conclusion

That way, you’ll know your friends who are active on Facebook.
