Facebook Messenger Review
Messenger Facebook App
Setup
It's likely you contend the very least attempted MESSENGER before, so this action should not require much description. If you don't make use of Facebook or just aren't a follower, excellent information: you don't need to also have a Facebook account to use MESSENGER. Just your cellphone number will certainly be adequate. You download and install the application from the Play Shop. Then either get in touch with your Facebook account or mobile number, as well as you remain in.
Functions
Young boy, where to start with this one. The list is long and also rapidly expanding longer, so let's undergo (what I take into consideration) the largest functions one-by-one:
Integrated SMS
This attribute made some pretty severe headings earlier this year. MESSENGER can currently be used as both your data-based messenging app and mobile SMS texting interface. No, it does not physically take over cellular-based texting, yet it rules in all your incoming and outgoing texts right into it's interface, offering you a single app to open up, no matter the message's medium.
Conventional wisdom may object to this migration, recognizing Facebook's inherit need to be know all the details of your web activity ... Facebook itself has declared that they draw no data regarding your texts back its web servers; it's only supplying this attribute [basically] so you utilize or stay on the MESSENGER app that a lot longer. I guess it depends on you whether you fit keeping that notion.
Integrated Picture & Video Clip Capture
This set's not a real unique function, however it's capability it excellent. While in the application, you can launch either your gadget's front or back video camera to easily record media for sharing objectives.
Video Chat
Nowadays not as much breaking-news, yet again it functions actually, truly smoothly (though note: this does not work with SMS integration). Simply by pressing heaven icon. I say 'blue', due to the fact that it may be gray ... this tells you that person isn't offered to take a video telephone call during that time. Neat!
In-App Gamings
When in a conversation, just click the plot controller icon and select your battle. The list 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 minimal presence within MESSENGER in the past, Facebook has just this week released the dogs on the full-boat video game offerings.

Contact Codes
Similar to Snapchat, MESSENGER offers a ceramic tile with a scan-able code along with your instant & relevant contact information.
Show Location
If you're wandering around town as well as are attempting to meet some pals, MESSENGER's location-sharing feature might come in convenient.
A Customized Greeting (if you have a business/page)
If you have a business account or page, MESSENGER permits you consist of a greeting, to appear when somebody opens the application to send you a message. This is an excellent function to establishing the tone a customer (or prospective one) experiences when interfacing with your brand.
Send Out Audio Clips (remove voicemail!).
I'm pretty stunned this one isn't extra prominent than it is. Rather than leaving a phone message (and also making your buddy undergo the difficult job of navigating cellular voice mail), you can simply hit the microphone button and also leave a voice message right in the application. So instead of needing to "dial-in", the receiver can obtain an alert and also press "play". Ahhh ... it functions so damn well.
Well-Composed Group Chats
Unlike standard SMS (where my experience has actually revealed it to be a complete mess), MESSENGER takes care of team talks with family member aplomb. The major method they accomplish this is providing group chats their very own tab, arranging them together as opposed to combined among all your various other conversations (particularly with individuals that likewise show up in the group chats).
Stand-Alone Desktop Computer App
OK, this isn't mobile-based, but I directly use it and it works well. Messenger.com will raise a streamlined user interface that functions much like the mobile application; so you do not need to maintain mosting likely to your phone while at your workdesk during the job day (provided your employer is typically trendy with this, certainly).
Call an Uber. Or a Lyft
Right in the application is a menu choice to "ask for a ride". From right here you can select Uber or Lyft as your solution of option, and also off you go ... without leaving MESSENGER.
Pin a Conversation
Within team talks, you can pin a certain string to the top of your listing, so it's very easy to find!
Mute alerts
If you're attempting to obtain some job done, or have an additional obligation & do not want to get sidetracked with a Messenger conversation, you can select to 'silence' alerts from a specific thread for your selection of time (15 mins, 1 hr, and so on).
Send & receive loan
... as well as Facebook does not even charge for the service. While in a conversation, click the "$" icon, select the amount you want to send out to the person you're talking with, and enter your charge card information. Done.
Send your area (though not making use of Google Maps)
While you might not need this really usually, if you do find your and also your buddies having difficulty locating each other while out & concerning it may can be found in rather handy. Just click on your location, and your buddy( s) will certainly have the ability to check out a click-able map to see exactly where you are.
Final thought
Love it or dislike it, Facebook has actually built a wonderful feature established into a very well-performing app in MESSENGER. And also combined with the crazy-big individual base, it's getting harder every day to warrant not using it (or at the very least having it mounted).
Hopefully you found some previously-unknown function that will certainly come in valuable for you. Or, possibly, you may have located your threshold factor to provide it a shot. Allow us understand if you have any type of other must-try attributes in MESSENGER!
