    There are instances where you may have accidentally blocked the wrong Facebook user. As blocked users don’t appear on your feeds or the search results, unblocking them can be confusing.

    There are multiple ways to unblock a user on Facebook. You can unblock them either from Facebook settings or via Messenger. Regardless, unblocking a Facebook user on your phone is similar to the web version.

    Note: If you unblock a user, you must wait 48 hours before blocking them again. Additionally, the unblocked user will not be added on your friend list. So, you will need to send a friend request after unblocking a user.
