Why does the Facebook app keep logging me out on my Samsung Galaxy S10? Why does Facebook keep saying the session expired? Should I be worried?
I am an Android user and I am faced with a “Facebook session expired” notification that constantly keeps popping up no matter how many times I dismiss it and it also says that I need to log in again.
Update 6 Oct 2021: After updating the latest Samsung Galaxy S10 OS, the Facebook app still shut down in less than 5 minutes with a message “Session Expired. Please log in again.” The only solution or hack is to disable the Facebook app and install Facebook Lite instead. Problem solved.
Troubleshooting
How do I fix my “session expired” issue on the Facebook mobile app?
- Check your browser settings and clear your cache and cookies periodically. This also reduces the risks of a data breach and enhances your online privacy. ~ https://famoid.com/why-facebook-keeps-logging-me-out
- If you are using the Facebook app and you get this error, navigate to your app store (Google Play Store or App Store) and see if there is a new version of the Facebook app. If there is, download it. ~ https://www.technobezz.com/how-to-fix-facebook-app-session-expired-error
- Facebook revealed a “configuration change” that logged some Apple users out of their Facebook accounts. Some users just simply had to sign back in but others who used two-factor authentication reported struggling to do so. ~ https://www.the-sun.com/lifestyle/tech/2206248/facebook-data-breach-why-have-i-been-logged-out-profile-account-access
- In approximately 25% of all cases, the “Facebook session expired” notification keeps on popping up continuously because the affected user dismisses the notification instead of acting on it. In such cases, simply tapping on the notification, entering one’s Facebook credentials, logging in, and following the on-screen instructions does the trick and the notification no longer shows up. ~ https://appuals.com/facebook-session-expired/
- Re-login and change the password – It is advised that users log out completely and try to re-login, and most importantly change their passwords. ~ https://www.republicworld.com/technology-news/apps/what-happened-to-facebook-facebook-session-expired-and-login-issue-explained.html
- System Glitch: Remember, it could just be a temporary glitch in the Facebook system and therefore a temporary problem. ~ https://turbofuture.com/internet/Why-Does-Facebook-Keep-Logging-Me-Out
- My account is either being occupied by hackers, or I have posted some content that violates either the Facebook community conduct codes. ~ https://www.quora.com/Should-I-be-worried-if-Facebook-randomly-logs-me-out

Nothing worked. So I used alternative solutions.
Alternative Fix
Alternative #1:
Facebook Session Expired is an inconvenient problem for me. However, my way of fixing it immediately is to go to Facebook from Google Chrome. It’s much stable there.
Alternative #2:
Install Facebook Lite. There is one problem though. Facebook Lite limits video upload to 30 seconds.
Alternative #3:
Change my phone.
