A few days ago, I became curious about my account creation date on Facebook. I wanted to see if I could check when exactly I made my account. There were a few ways I could check it, including checking the date on the oldest post or photo that I uploaded on Facebook. But I wanted to see exact date when I created my account of Facebook. So I began searching on how I could do that, but all the methods I found seems out-dated and no longer relevant now.

Luckily, I was going through random settings on Facebook android app, and I found exactly what I was looking for! So I figured I'd write a post myself, in case anyone wants to know how they can check their account creation date on Facebook.
