We are finalizing the FAQ, but till then, here is what you should try:
If you are having trouble getting Tor Messenger to work with Facebook, follow
the steps below.
- Start by noting that the username field in Tor Messenger is your Facebook
username, not your email address. Your username is the text after
facebook.com on your profile page. (If the link to your profile is
facebook.com/johndoe, then your username is johndoe.) If you still can't
find it, go to "Settings", under "General", see "Username".
- Make sure chat is enabled:
Click the settings icon ("wheel") in your chat sidebar
Select Turn On Chat or Turn Off Chat
If you still can't connect, in addition to the above step, try using an app
password:
Go to your Security Settings
In the App Passwords section, click Edit
Click Generate app passwords and then follow the on-screen instructions
Then use this password instead of your usual Facebook password to connect to
Tor Messenger.
Try this and let us know if it works? (Or if it didn't work.)
