This How.com.vn article teaches you how to browse the available photos of somebody who's not your friend on Facebook. If you're not friends with a Facebook user, you can only see their photos with privacy settings that are set to "Public" or "Friends of Friends." While there's no way to see a non-friend's private Facebook photos, you'll still be able to see all of the photos they've forgotten to hide from people they don't know.

Things You Should Know

  • Click the Photos link on a person's Facebook profile to see their photos.
  • Click Albums to see all albums that contain photos that are visible to non-friends.
  • If a person has made their photos friends-only, you won't be able to see them unless you send a friend request.

      Tips

      • Facebook considers user privacy one of their major priorities. If you know a person and you want to see all of their photos, you can add them as a friend from their profile. If they accept your friend request, you will see all their photos that they've made available to "Friends."
