Mass Delete Facebook Comments

You have left comments on your own profile, on friends' photos, on public Pages, and inside groups you forgot you joined. Because Facebook gives you no single dashboard to see them all, Redact scans the platform to find every comment tied to your profile. Delete them all in bulk or filter by specific dates and keywords. Everything runs on your own machine, and you preview every item before anything is permanently removed.

Free for your last 30 days of posts & comments.

Why comments are easy to forget

Your comments don't live only on your own timeline

The posts you publish stay on your own timeline where they are easy to find and manage. Comments are different. They live on whatever you replied to: an old photo a friend posted years ago, a public thread that went viral, a group you left long ago. Because Facebook has no central feed to collect these scattered replies, it is hard to know how many of your old comments are still visible to others.

01

No single feed to check

Facebook gives you no dedicated tab for your past comments. Without a central list, reviewing what you wrote means visiting old threads one by one.

02

Old threads stay findable

A reply you left on another person's post stays online years later. Anyone who opens that discussion can scroll down and read exactly what you said.

03

Public replies carry your name further

Comments on public Pages or posts are visible to anyone browsing the web, not just your friends. Those words stay out in the open long after you forget them.

04

Context doesn't travel with the words

A joke or quick opinion that made sense in an old conversation rarely reads the same way years later. The setting is gone, but the text remains exactly as you typed it.

What this feature does

Round up every scattered comment in one pass

Deleting comments by hand means reopening every thread you ever replied to, which is impossible when Facebook keeps no list of them. Redact scans the platform for you, finds every comment tied to your profile, and queues them together.

Leave the filters blank to clear everything, or narrow the batch down to a date range, a keyword, or public comments only. Preview the queue, exclude anything you want to keep, then run it. The posts you replied to are never touched, only your own comments leave.

Filter before you delete

Target with pinpoint accuracy, or clear every comment at once

Leave every filter blank and Redact deletes every comment tied to your profile. Or combine filters to target an exact slice, such as comments older than three years, replies containing a specific name, or only the ones anyone online can see.

Date range

Set absolute start and end dates, or a rolling relative window like older than two years. The same control powers the date-range page.

Extended mode

Work through older or heavily active accounts Facebook will not fully load in one pass, yearly or monthly.

Keywords to delete

Only delete comments containing the words or phrases you specify.

Keywords to preserve

Keep any comment that matches your list, even if another filter would remove it.

Public comments only

Limit the run to comments anyone online can see, not just the ones visible to friends.

Run it your way

Preview first, then delete or automate

Preview Mode

Review every matching comment before a single one is removed. Best for a first pass.

Deletion Mode

Clear everything that matches your filters at once, once you trust the criteria.

Review & Delete

Get a list of matches and remove them one click at a time, or batch-select them.

Schedule Deletion

Automate a recurring sweep so new comments never pile back up. Scheduling is a Premium feature.

    Download for your device →
  2. 2

    Connect your Facebook account

    Open Redact, choose Facebook, and link your account securely. Your credentials are sent straight to Facebook and never touch a Redact server.

  3. 3

    Set your filters, or leave them blank

    Open the Comments section and choose how wide to cast. Leave every filter empty to queue every comment tied to your profile, or narrow the batch first.

    • Date range: clear a whole era and keep recent replies, or slice by year.
    • Keywords to delete: target only comments mentioning specific words.
    • Public comments only: limit the run to replies anyone online can see.

    Going back past the last 30 days? Clearing recent activity is free. Full all-time cleanups and scheduled deletions are part of Premium.

  4. 4

    Preview, then confirm

    Run a Preview to check the queue and exclude anything you want to keep. Only your own comments are archived first, so download a copy if you want a private record of a thread. When the batch looks right, start the deletion.

  5. 5

    Let Redact do the work

    Redact works through Facebook and removes every comment that matches your filters, showing each one as it goes. Keep the app running until it finishes so nothing is missed. To stay clean going forward, set up a Schedule and Redact handles new comments automatically.

Zero servers. Zero tracking. Total privacy.

Redact runs entirely on your own machine and talks directly to Facebook, so your credentials and your comments never leave your device. We clear your history for you without storing any of it, and you can disconnect the second you finish. We never see your deleted comments, your account password, or anything else about you or your accounts.
