Messenger Application For Facebook
Setup
It's likely you've at least tried MESSENGER before, so this step shouldn't need much explanation. If you do not utilize Facebook or simply aren't a follower, great information: you don't require to also have a Facebook account to utilize MESSENGER. Just your mobile phone number will be adequate. You download the application from the Play Store. After that either get in touch with your Facebook account or mobile number, as well as you're in.
Features
Kid, where to begin with this set. The checklist is long and quickly expanding much longer, so let's undergo (what I think about) the greatest attributes one-by-one:
Integrated SMS
This feature made some pretty serious headlines earlier this year. MESSENGER can now be used as both your data-based messenging application as well as mobile SMS texting interface. No, it doesn't literally take control of cellular-based texting, however it rules in all your incoming and also outward bound texts into it's user interface, offering you a solitary application to open, despite the message's tool.
Conventional wisdom might challenge this movement, understanding Facebook's inherit wish to be know all the information of your internet task ... Facebook itself has claimed that they pull no information regarding your texts back its web servers; it's only supplying this attribute [basically] so you use or remain on the MESSENGER application that a lot longer. I think it's up to you whether you fit with that said idea.
Integrated Image & Video Clip Capture
This one's not an actual unique attribute, yet it's performance it excellent. While in the app, you can introduce either your device's front or rear video camera to quickly catch media for sharing functions.
Video Chat
Nowadays not as much breaking-news, yet again it works actually, truly smoothly (though note: this does not collaborate with SMS combination). Simply by pushing heaven symbol. I say 'blue', since it might be grey ... this informs you that person isn't available to take a video clip phone call at that time. Neat!
In-App Gamings
When in a conversation, just click the plot controller icon and select your battle. The listing of games is pretty long, as well as Facebook mentions it will get longer in the short-term. While pc gaming has actually had a limited existence within MESSENGER in the past, Facebook has simply today launched the dogs on the full-boat game offerings.

Contact Codes
Similar to Snapchat, MESSENGER supplies a tile with a scan-able code along with your instant & pertinent call info.
Show Location
If you're straying around town and also are trying to meet up with some close friends, MESSENGER's location-sharing function may be available in convenient.
An Individualized Introduction (if you have a business/page)
If you have a business account or page, MESSENGER allows you include a greeting, to show up when someone opens up the app to send you a message. This is a wonderful attribute to setting the tone a consumer (or potential one) experiences when interfacing with your brand name.
Send Sound Clips (eliminate voicemail!).
I'm rather amazed this one isn't much more preferred than it is. As opposed to leaving a phone message (as well as making your friend undergo the difficult task of navigating mobile voice mail), you can just strike the microphone switch and also leave a voice message right in the app. So rather than needing to "dial-in", the receiver can obtain an alert as well as press "play". Ahhh ... it functions so damn well.
Well-Composed Group Chats
Unlike standard SMS (where my experience has actually shown it to be an overall mess), MESSENGER deals with group chats with relative aplomb. The primary way they accomplish this is providing team chats their own tab, arranging them with each other rather than combined amongst all your various other conversations (specifically with people that additionally appear in the group talks).
Stand-Alone Desktop App
OK, this isn't mobile-based, yet I directly utilize it and also it works well. Messenger.com will bring up a streamlined user interface that works similar to the mobile app; so you do not need to maintain mosting likely to your phone while at your desk during the job day (supplied your company is normally amazing with this, of course).
Call an Uber. Or a Lyft
Right in the app is a food selection choice to "ask for a flight". From here you can choose Uber or Lyft as your solution of selection, and off you go ... without leaving MESSENGER.
Pin a Conversation
Within group talks, you can pin a specific thread to the top of your listing, so it's easy to discover!
Mute notices
If you're attempting to obtain some job done, or have another commitment & do not wish to get sidetracked with a Messenger discussion, you can pick to 'mute' notices from a specific thread for your selection of time (15 minutes, 1 hour, etc.).
Send & obtain cash
... and Facebook does not also charge for the solution. While in a conversation, click the "$" symbol, choose the amount you intend to send out to the individual you're chatting with, as well as enter your charge card information. Done.
Send your place (though not using Google Maps)
While you might not need this extremely often, if you do discover your as well as your pals having difficulty finding each various other while out & about it may come in pretty helpful. Merely click your area, and also your good friend( s) will certainly have the ability to check out a click-able map to see precisely where you are.
Conclusion
Love it or dislike it, Facebook has developed an excellent attribute established right into a very well-performing application in MESSENGER. As well as combined with the crazy-big individual base, it's obtaining harder each day to justify not utilizing it (or at least having it set up).
Hopefully you discovered some previously-unknown attribute that will can be found in useful for you. Or, maybe, you might have located your limit factor to give it a try. Let us know if you have any type of various other must-try features in MESSENGER!
