Remove Older Facebook Recognized Device

Facebook allows users to keep a record of all the devices which were used to logon to their accounts and all the devices which are recognized by the Facebook can be viewed using a tool offered by the website which is known as Recognized Devices. Once the device is recognized by Facebook the website never asks users for the name of that very device when the user logs on to his Facebook account next time using the same device. However there might be cases when users have changed their devices for example they have purchased a new mobile phone or have upgraded their laptop PCs. In such cases they might want to remove the older recognized devices from their accounts for security reasons.
