That is how to unblock people on Facebook on mobile and desktop computers.
Before you proceed on Facebook to unblock somebody, bear in mind that you do not automatically become friends with unblocked users. To be friends once again, you have to send them a friend request.
Another thing that is worthy of note is that, if you mistakenly unblock a user you do not want to be unblocked, you’ll have to wait 48 hours to block the user again.
