It sounds like you’re looking for where Facebook stores or shows your past memories. Here’s how you can find them across devices and what to expect. What and where memories live
- Facebook Memories (often called “On This Day” in the past) is a dedicated section that gathers posts, photos, and interactions from the same date across different years. It can be accessed from the main menu on mobile or from the left/top area on desktop. If you don’t see it right away, look for a “See More” option to expand the menu. [Facebook Help Center guidance and recent usage notes]
How to access Memories on different devices
- On mobile (iOS/Android):
- Open the Facebook app.
- Tap the Menu (three horizontal lines) usually in the bottom-right corner (iOS may show at the bottom; Android may show at the top-left depending on version).
- Scroll and tap Memories. If it isn’t visible, tap See More to reveal additional sections. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
- On desktop:
- Go to Facebook and open the left-hand sidebar or top navigation.
- Click Memories (or On This Day in older versions). If you don’t see it, choose See More to reveal it. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
Common issues and quick fixes
- If you don’t see any memories on a given day, it might mean there were no posts, photos, or interactions on that exact date across years, or memory curation is temporarily unavailable for that date. In some cases, privacy or account settings could affect what appears. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
- If memories are not loading, try refreshing, signing out and back in, or reinstalling the app. You can also try accessing memories from a web browser at facebook.com/memories. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
Tips for using memories
- You can share a memory directly from the Memories view.
- Memories can include posts, photos, and other interactions from multiple years, shown by date. If you only want to see a specific type of memory (e.g., photos), use any available filters in the Memories view. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
Direct answer to your question
- To find your memories on Facebook, open the app or website, navigate to the Menu, and select Memories (also labeled as “On This Day” in older interfaces). If needed, choose See More to reveal the Memories option. Once in Memories, you’ll see past posts, photos, and interactions organized by date across years. [Facebook Help Center guidance]
