How can I see who the “one other” viewer is on my Facebook story


There are various reasons why you are seeing ‘one other’ on your Facebook story instead of the name of the user. When a person has viewed your story and blocked your right after then their name will display as ‘one other’ under your Facebook story.

And if you have a public account and when you put a story and people who are not added to your account but still view your story then it will be shown as ‘other viewer’.

The ‘other viewer’ situation only happens when your account is public and many people have access to it.

If you have set your account to private then only people who are added to your Facebook account are able to see your story and you will not get the ‘other view’ of things happening there.

How can I see who the “one other” viewer is on my Facebook story?

And unfortunately, you are unable to see who the ‘other viewers’ really are. Facebook has kept the identity of such individuals private which means that you are unable to see who these people really are.

In which situations you will see the other viewer on your Facebook story:

When you share the story with people you are not friends with

When you personally share your story with people you are not friends with or someone else has shared your story with other people who are not on your friend’s list.

So when they will view your story it will be shown as ‘other view’ you will not be able to see their name but you can see the number of people who have even your story as ‘other viewer’

Adding a bunch of people.

One solution to see the other view is by adding a bunch of people who you might think are the ones viewing your story but not added to your account.

You can guess these people and then add them to your account and if they really are the ones viewing your story then their names will appear on the list of the people who have viewed your story.

But in this way, you will have to add so many people unnecessarily even if you have nothing to do with them. So not really an effective way to see the ‘other viewers’.

You can put a story asking people

One of the other ways is to put a story and directly ask them who has viewed your story and who you’re not friends with.

It is not exactly an effective method but worth a try If you are desperate.

Ask around

You can as people you are friends with if they have shared your story with people you are not friends with on Facebook. This way you will get to know who viewed your story.

How to stop people I am not friends with to view my story?

You control the access to your story by changing the privacy setting of your Facebook story. Change it to private from the public in order to only let your friends view your stories.
