(These methods are checked and tested by Elsa in 2024.) Method 1. Disable Read Receipts on MessengerFacebook allows users to turn off the read receipts for all chats or for a specific chat. Therefore, the key to reading messages without being seen is to turn off read receipts on Facebook Messenger. How to turn off read receipts for all chats on Messenger:
Note: When you turn off the Messenger read receipts, people won’t be able to see when you have read their messages, and you won’t be able to know when they’ve read the messages you send, either. However, they will still be able to see if you’ve read disappearing messages. Steps about to turn off the read receipts on Messenger can apply to all the chats, so don’t forget to turn on read receipts again when you are ready to instantly engage with your friends. If you want to turn off read receipts for specific senders, you can do that one by one with these steps:
By doing so, you can read Messenger messages without seen for this specific chat. Method 2. Preview Messages from NotificationsThis is one of the most straightforward ways to read messages in Messenger without opening it. Anyone who uses Facebook on Android or iPhone gets a notification whenever they receive a message. Therefore, you can read a portion of the message from that notification without the sender knowing. Now, just swipe down from the top of your phone screen to access the Notification panel and read the Facebook messages. NOTE: If you tap on the message from the notification panel, it will open the Messenger app and send a seen status to the sender, so ensure not to tap on that message accidentally. This method works for most short messages. However, if it’s a long message, some devices only show part of the message (such as iPhone 11 I’m using), but some devices can still see the whole message from the notification panel (such as Samsung Galaxy S20+ I’m using). Therefore, if your smartphone shows the full version of the long text message, you are lucky to read it without seen, just from the notification panel. Method 3. Restrict and Unrestrict the SenderTo see messages in Messenger without seen, you can utilize the Restrict feature of Messenger. Here's how you can do so:
Method 4. Activate the Airplane ModeWhen there is no internet connection, you can freely view Messenger without seen. You only have to turn on the Airplane mode of your device and then clear the cache of Messenger. This method works on Android devices only. Now, I'll guide you step-by-step:
After this, when you return to Messenger, the message you read will still be "unread" on the sender's chat view. Note: It’s very crucial to clear app data and cache before turning off Airplane mode. If you just mark the message as unread but do not clear app data and cache, it will send the read receipts after getting the internet connection. Method 5. Long Press to ViewIf you are an iOS user, do you know you can preview the chat window by long-pressing the conversion in Messenger? By using this trick, you can see messages in Messenger without opening it, and the sender won't get notified of you reading the messages. Here's how to read Messenger messages without seen on iPhone:
Note: This method allows you to read Messenger messages without seen on iPhone, but only for the most recent messages. If there are more messages beyond the preview panel, it won’t show up and you can’t scroll up or down to read more. Method 6: Read Messages without Seen on Facebook WebThe Facebook web version also allows you to send and receive messages with friends, and there is a trick that lets you to read Facebook messages without seen using the web version, even if you scroll up and down all the messages.
Note: Clicking the message bar, the sender’s name, the video/image/stick/GIFL/Like button will trigger the seen status, but scrolling up and down, clicking the minimize chat button or close chat button won’t send the read receipts. Method 7. Use a Chrome ExtensionIf you prefer using Facebook or Messenger from your browser, then you're in luck! Web extensions are viable when you want to read messages on Facebook without being seen. There are several extensions available for this purpose. However, "ESUIT | Un Seen for Facebook" is the most effective one I used. Follow the steps below:
Using a browser extension will allow you to read Messenger messages without seen even if you click on the chat window, which means you can click any where on the chat window and it won’t send the read receipts. And still, it will definitely send the read receipts if you reply to that message. If you are using Firefox, you are out of luck because we have tested several extensions on Firefox such as FB unseen or similar and most of them stop working.

It will show the full notification even if it’s a long text message. However, if you receive a sticker, gif, or image, you can’t read what it exactly is but just a preview. Final ThoughtsNow, try it yourself to open Facebook messages without seen. All seven methods are 100% working and proven by me. We have also test other solutions (such as archiving the chat or ignoring the conversation) to read Messenger messages but they don’t work as expected. For instance, if you choose to archive the chat and read the messages in the archive chat, it will trigger the seen status to the sender in most cases. This is working only if the sender send the message from Facebook web, and you archive and read the message on your mobile phone. If you encounter any questions when trying these ways, please leave your comment, and I'll be glad to help you out!
