Facebook are introducing Messenger, a new mobile app that simplifies how messaging works, and gives you a faster way to message friends and small groups.
A whole new app
Messenger is a separate app, so it only takes one click to get to your messages or send a new one. Messages are delivered through notifications and texts, so your friends are more likely to get them right away.
Reach friends right on their phones
- Now you can send messages directly to your friends on their mobile phones, so you stay in touch no matter where you go. Message friends or anyone in your mobile contacts.
Get and send messages fast
- With the new standalone Messenger app, now messaging with friends is faster than ever. Messages are delivered instantly, and they’re always just a click away.
Make plans with groups on the go
- Group conversations make it easy to message everyone at once and see where your friends are. Don’t want to share your location? Turn it off with one click.
How to get Messenger
Messenger will be available for both iPhone and Android starting today. Just search for “Facebook Messenger” in your phone’s app store, or get a link to the app texted to your phone.
