Last Updated: Feb 5, 2024 by

Facebook Messenger has become an essential tool for communication, with over 1.3 billion active users worldwide. However, one feature that can be quite annoying is the M Suggestions, which is Facebook’s AI chatbot that suggests actions based on your conversations. While this feature can be helpful at times, it can also be intrusive and distracting. If you’re tired of constantly seeing M Suggestions on your Messenger app, here’s how you can turn them off.

What are M Suggestions?

Before we dive into how to turn off M Suggestions, let’s first understand what they are. M Suggestions are automated prompts that appear in your Messenger conversations, suggesting actions based on what you’re talking about. For example, if you mention meeting up with a friend, M Suggestions may suggest setting a reminder or creating a group chat. While this feature can be useful, it can also be annoying and may not always be accurate.

How to turn off M Suggestions on Messenger

If you’re tired of seeing M Suggestions on your Messenger app, you can easily turn them off by following these steps:

  1. Open your Messenger app and tap on your profile picture in the top left corner.
  2. Scroll down and tap on “M Suggestions.”
  3. Toggle off the “Suggestions in Chat” option.

That’s it! M Suggestions will no longer appear in your conversations. However, keep in mind that this will also disable other M Suggestions features, such as sending stickers or requesting a ride through Messenger.

How to turn off M Suggestions for specific conversations

If you still want to receive M Suggestions for some conversations but not others, you can turn them off for specific chats. Here’s how:

  1. Open the conversation for which you want to turn off M Suggestions.
  2. Tap on the person’s name at the top of the chat.
  3. Scroll down and tap on “M Suggestions.”
  4. Toggle off the “Suggestions in Chat” option.

This will only turn off M Suggestions for that specific conversation, and you will still receive them for other chats.

How to turn off M Suggestions for all conversations

If you want to completely turn off M Suggestions for all your conversations, you can do so by following these steps:

  1. Open your Messenger app and tap on your profile picture in the top left corner.
  2. Scroll down and tap on “M Suggestions.”
  3. Toggle off the “Suggestions in Chat” option.
  4. Toggle off the “Suggestions from Messenger” option.

This will disable M Suggestions for all your conversations, including group chats.

Conclusion

Facebook Messenger’s M Suggestions can be a helpful feature, but it can also be intrusive and distracting. If you’re tired of constantly seeing M Suggestions in your conversations, you can easily turn them off using the steps mentioned above. This will help you have a more seamless and uninterrupted messaging experience on Messenger.
