How to See How Long Someone Was Logged Onto Facebook
Seeing how long someone was logged on to Facebook requires that the person accessing the Facebook website do it from your computer using the Google Chrome browser. For privacy reasons, Facebook doesn't display when a person was last signed in or show the length of time on the site. But if the person, such as one of your children, uses your computer, then you can monitor the length of time on Facebook each day, including the exact time for the last visit.
