Let’s start right away with the Facebook app followed by Messenger.
Will the Facebook Account Get Deleted
Not at all. Uninstalling Facebook app doesn’t delete the Facebook account.
Can People Still See Your Facebook Profile
Yes. Uninstalling the Facebook app from either Android or iPhone doesn’t remove your Facebook profile. So people can still view your Facebook profile.
Can People Tag You
Yes. Again, as the profile is technically live, your friends can tag you.
What Happens to Old Posts and Photos on Facebook
Nothing. Facebook will not delete them. That’s because those are saved in the cloud storage to your account and not on your phone. If you reinstall Facebook or access it from the website, you will see those photos. Only if you delete them from Facebook explicitly, they will be removed.
What About Likes and Comments
Your old likes and comments will stay as it is and people can still interact via likes and comments with your existing posts. But you will not be notified about it on your mobile.
Are Pages and Groups Deleted
No. Facebook won’t delete any page or group that you own. Similarly, it will not remove you from any group or page.
Can You Still Login to Other Apps Via Facebook
Yes. If you use Facebook to sign into other apps and games such as Candy Crush, or other shopping apps, you can still do it. Earlier when you pressed the Login with Facebook button, you only had to authorize the app without entering your Facebook details. But now, since there is no Facebook app, you will have to enter your Facebook login details in such apps manually.
