How to Turn on Login Approvals for Facebook
Facebook offers a security feature called "Login Approvals" that requires you to verify who you are before accessing your own account from an unknown browser. This is similar to 2-factor authentication, and specific to Facebook. The feature will send a notification, with a special code, to your cellphone when someone attempts to login to your Facebook profile. This feature will help you a lot if you want to add more security to your Facebook profile. Here’s how you can achieve this :
Steps

Go to Facebook, and log in using your own login credentials.

In the upper right corner on the top bar, click on the security/privacy icon. Then, select "See More Settings" to go straight to your security/privacy settings page.

Choose "Security" from the upper right menu.

Choose "Login Approvals" from the options. When you check the box, Facebook will prompt you with a note about how they deliver approval codes. Select continue.

Read through the next prompt. Click "Continue" to move forward with the setup.

Check for the text. Facebook will then send you a text to your listed phone number with the 6-digit code. Enter the code in the box and click “Continue”.. Facebook offers a one-week period where you do not always need the code; choose whether or not you'd like to use their one-week opt-out by checking or unchecking the box.Turn on Login Approvals for Facebook Step 7.jpg

Use the verification code to log in with. Next time you (or anyone else) tries to log in to your Facebook account, they will be prompted to enter a special verification code. Once Facebook has verified that browser, it will not prompt you for a code again.
