How to block or unblock an app on Facebook

If you are receiving game/app requests that you do not want to receive please block the game/app. There are many of you listed inside FARMVILLE saying you play the game and I know you are not. You many have accidentally clicked on a link at one time and never intended on using the app. Please block it. It's VERY EASY TO DO. Thanks!

How do I block or unblock an app?

Blocking an app means it won't be able to access any information about you from Facebook or send you any requests. Note: This is not the same as when your iOS 6 device blocks you from from sharing to Facebook. 

If you received a request for an app, and you want to block the app:
1. Go to the App Center
2. Click the X button next to the request
3. When you see the yellow box, click the Block (App Name) link
You can add and manage your blocked apps in the Blocked People and Apps section of your Privacy Settings Page.

To block an app you haven't received a request from:
1. Navigate to your Privacy Settings Page
2. Click Manage Blocking across from Blocked People and Apps
3. In the Block Apps section, type in the app's name
To unblock an app:
1. Navigate to your Privacy Settings Page
2. Click Manage Blocking across from Blocked People and Apps
3. In the Block Apps section, find the app you want and click Unblock
Note: You'll need to grant the app permissions again if you would like to re-add it to your timeline.
