Your first option is to refuse access. If the Facebook app asks you for access to your Calendar, or asks if you want to save an event to your calendar, deny it. <h3> For iPhones and iPads </h3> You won&#39;t have to go through preventative steps if you&#39;re using iOS 11 or later, as Facebook calendar syncing has been removed from more recent versions.

It is possible that calendar remains, however, if you previously used Facebook in an earlier version of iOS and then updated to a newer one. If you’re using something older than iOS 11, go to Settings &gt; Facebook &gt; Calendars, then turn Facebook calendars Off.

Depending on your operating system this could be a simple settings toggle or a slightly more involved process.<br/> Most of the steps detailed below will hide or remove all birthday events from your calendar. If you still want to keep some birthdays saved you may need to re-enter them afterwards, or remove unwanted birthdays one-by-one instead.
