Hello, and thank you for watching VisiHow. Today, I will show you one of three ways to change your Facebook profile photo, on an LG L70. Part one of three is to tap on the bullet points, below the cover photo in Facebook.
Steps
- 1To begin the tutorial, we will press the Home button one time. This button is located near the top, on the right-hand side of the device.
Advertisement - 2We will then press down on the screen, and swipe upwards one time. This will unlock our phone, taking us to the Home screen. Currently, we have the Facebook icon placed on the Home screen. This icon features a blue square, with a white letter "f" placed inside of it.
Advertisement - 3If the Facebook icon is not placed on the Home screen, we can locate it by opening our Apps folder. To open the Apps folder, we need to tap the Apps icon one time. This icon features a gray box, with a grid of white squares located inside of it. For now, we are going to open Facebook directly from the Home screen.
- 4Once we have located the Facebook application icon, we are going to tap it one time. This will open the application for us, taking us to the Home screen. From here, we need to access our profile. Across the top of the screen, there will be a white bar with five various icons. To the far right, there will be a gray icon featuring three, horizontal white lines.
- 5We will now tap the icon located in the top, right-hand corner below the blue bar. This icon features three, gray, horizontal lines. This will open a menu for us, with our current profile photo at the top, to the left of our name. Underneath of our name, we will see the words "View your profile".
- 6We are now going to tap the very first option one time. This option will feature our profile picture, name, and the words "View your profile". Pressing this option is going to open up our Profile page. Below our cover photo, on the right-hand side, we sill see three bullet points in a vertical line. This icon will be to the right of the options labeled "Update Info" and "Activity Log".
- 7We will now tap the icon featuring three bullet points in a horizontal line one time. This will open up a menu for us, presenting us with four options.
- 8We are now going to tap on the first option, labeled "Edit Profile Picture".
- 9We will now tap on the first option located underneath of the blue bar, labeled "PHOTOS".
- 10From here, we are going to locate and tap the photo we would like to have as our Facebook profile photo.
- 11This will open the photo for us, where we can press and drag our photo to move and scale it to our liking.
- 12Once we are happy with our photo, we can tap "Done" one time. This option is located in the bottom, right-hand corner of our screen.
- 13We will now press the back button one time. This button is located in the bottom, left-hand corner of our device. This will exit the edit section, bringing us back to our Profile page.
- 14We will then press the back button another time.
- 15We can now reopen our profile, by tapping the "View your profile" option one time. We can see now our profile photo has been changed.
- 16This then concludes our tutorial today, on one of the three ways to change your Facebook profile photo, on an LG L70. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions, please leave them in the comment section below.

Hello, and thank you for watching VisiHow. In this tutorial, I will show you 1 of 3 ways to change your Facebook profile photo on an LG L70. Part 2 of 3 is to make the change by tapping on the little pencil icon in the lower right-hand corner of the photo in Facebook.
Steps
- 1To begin, unlock the phone by pressing the top right-hand side power button and swiping up one time to get to the home screen. We do have the Facebook icon on the home screen, which is a blue box with a white "f" inside.
- 2If we don't have it on the home screen, we can access the application from the apps menu. The Apps icon is located in the bottom right-hand corner of this home screen. It's a gray box with a set of white squares inside.
- 3We will open Facebook by tapping on it directly on the icon on the home screen. This brings us to our Facebook news feed. From our Facebook news feed, we need to get to our profile.
- 4To do that, we can tap on the icon on the right-hand corner, in the grey bar. The icon is 3 grey horizontal lines. A new screen will appear.
- 5Tap on the first option, which is our profile photo and name. Below our name, it says "View your profile". We will then be looking at the profile.
- 6In the bottom right-hand corner of the profile photo, we can see a tiny little pencil icon. Tap on it one time to see three options. "Upload Photo", "Choose from Photos", or "View Photo".
- 7Here we will tap on the first option which is "Upload Photo". It takes us to our gallery.
- 8Tap on the chosen photo to select it for the profile photo.
- 9Drag the photo around until we're satisfied with the appearance of the photo.
- 10Tap on "Done" in the bottom left-hand corner.
- 11We can check the progress of the upload in the notifications menu by swiping down from the top. There is a check mark and it says, "Facebook upload complete". Swipe up from the bottom of the notifications menu to close it.
- 12Now we can see the profile photo has been changed.
