Step 1: Access Your Facebook Settings
To disable Facebook Live, you first need to access your Facebook settings. You can do this by clicking on the small arrow icon located at the top right corner of your Facebook homepage. From the dropdown menu, select “Settings.”

Additional Tips
– Disabling Facebook Live will not delete any of your previous live videos. They will still be available on your profile.
