Introduction
If you've got Zoosk connected to your Facebook account, you might want to change settings, or remove it completely. Disconnecting Zoosk from Facebook can give your privacy and security a real boost, while also giving you more direct control over which apps can look at your profile information. Ending the connection is short and sweet, and you can do it from the Facebook website or the mobile app. This guide walks you through each step, explains what happens after you remove the connection, and includes screenshots showing where to find the necessary settings.
Log In To Your Facebook Account
Since the Facebook connection is what you want to stop, you'll need to do it from within your account. You can access the needed settings via the website or on your phone, so it's easy access.
Go To Settings and Privacy
Once you're logged in, you'll want to click on your profile picture in the upper right corner and select "Settings and privacy" from the drop down menu. (Image 1)

Find Zoosk On the List
Scroll through all of the connected apps until you find Zoosk. You might find more apps you'd like to remove along the way, and Facebook makes it easy. Just click the Remove button next to any app you'd like to disconnect. This will bring up a pop-up screen asking you to confirm the removal and giving you instructions on how to get the removed app to delete any information it gathered while it was connected. (Image 3)
Make Sure It Worked
Disconnecting Facebook means you won't be able to login to Zoosk using your Facebook login any more. To verify that the process worked, go to the Zoosk website and try to login. If it won't let you use your Facebook credentials, you're good to go.
If Something Goes Wrong
If Zoosk isn't listed in your apps, your account might already be disconnected. It's also important to remember that disconnecting your Zoosk account from Facebook doesn't delete it. You can still login if you have your username and password. You can also reconnect later if you decide you want to.
Conclusion
Removing Zoosk from your Facebook account is a quick way to improve your privacy and reduce the number of third-party apps connected to your profile. Once the app is removed, Zoosk will no longer have access to your Facebook information. It's also a good idea to review your other connected apps periodically and remove any you no longer use. Keeping your Facebook permissions up to date helps protect your personal information and ensures only trusted apps have access to your account. If you have questions or something goes wrong with app removal, you can contact Facebook support for more help.
