No, people cannot see when you save their Facebook photos. Facebook does not notify users when someone downloads or saves their photos. This applies to both public and private photos, as long as you have access to view them.

Here's why:

  • Privacy Concerns: Facebook prioritizes user privacy, and notifying users about photo saves could be seen as intrusive.
  • Technical limitations: Implementing such a notification system would be technically complex and resource-intensive.
  • Limited Usefulness: Even with notifications, preventing users from saving photos would be difficult.

However, it's important to remember that while Facebook doesn't notify users about saved photos, it does track user activity. This includes information like which photos you view and how long you spend looking at them.

Here are some additional points to consider:

  • Sharing Collections: If you save a photo to a public collection, anyone who has access to the collection can see it.
  • Screenshotting: People can still take screenshots of their photos, even if you save them privately.
  • Third-Party Apps: Be cautious when using third-party apps that claim to allow you to see who has saved your photos. These apps may be scams or collect your personal information.

Facebook doesn't notify users when someone saves their photos directly. However, it's essential to note that platform features and policies can change over time, so it's advisable to check Facebook's current settings or policies for the most up-to-date information.

Here are some points to consider based on the information:

  1. No Direct Notification: Facebook typically doesn't send notifications to users when someone saves their photos directly.

  2. Privacy Settings: The visibility of your photos can depend on your privacy settings. If your photos are set to "Public," anyone on Facebook can view and save them. If they are set to "Friends" or a more restricted audience, only those designated people can access them.

  3. Screenshot Concerns: While Facebook may not provide a direct "save" notification, users should be aware that others can take screenshots of photos. This action is not controlled or monitored by Facebook, and it is outside the platform's notification system.

  4. Content Ownership: When you upload photos to Facebook, you grant certain rights to the platform based on its terms of service. However, saving a photo doesn't necessarily infringe on these rights, as long as the person saving it respects copyright and privacy laws.

  5. Security and Scams: Be cautious about third-party apps or websites claiming to provide information on who saved your photos. Such services could compromise your account security and might be scams
