Facebook will not allow your Friends list to be accessed by the other users. It is purely personal and private. The non-categorized Friends will be grouped as “Other Friends”. You can follow the below mentioned points to go offline or invisible:
- Open the Facebook Chat window by selecting options available on the chat pane
- Select the Friends List names (e.g. Other Friends) and select the Green / White toggle button to make your status as offline or invisible to all the friends of that list.
- If the toggle switch is in Grey / White color then it indicates that the Friends list is in offline.
