How to log out of unused apps on Facebook

Facebook may not seem like it's that secure, but there are some things you can do to increase your personal security when using Facebook.  One thing you can do is to log out of apps that you aren't currently using.

From a web browser:
- Log into your Facebook account at Facebook.com.
- Click on the downward-facing triangle in the upper right corner.
- Select Settings.
- Select Security (on the left side).
- Select Where You're Logged In.
- At the top of the list you'll see "Current Session."  Below that will be any other sessions/devices/apps that you are currently logged into.  Click End Activity next to any of them to log out.

From the Facebook iPad app:
- Tap the down arrow in the upper right corner.
- Tap Settings on the drop-down menu.
- Tap Security.
- Tap Active Sessions.
- Tap the X next to any session that you want to end.

From the Facebook iPhone app:
- Tap the Menu icon in the lower right corner.
- Tap See More....
- Scroll down to Settings.
- Tap Account Settings.
- Tap Security.
- Tap Active Sessions.
- Tap the X next to any session that you want to end.

From the Facebook Android app on a tablet:
- Tap the Menu icon at the top of the screen (next to the globe icon).
- Scroll down to Account Settings.
- Tap Security.
- Tap Active Sessions.
- Tap the X next to any session that you want to end.
