Facebook Messenger App Review
Arrangement
It's likely you've at the very least tried MESSENGER in the past, so this action shouldn't require much description. If you don't make use of Facebook or just aren't a follower, good news: you don't need to even have a Facebook account to make use of MESSENGER. Just your cellphone number will be enough. You download and install the application from the Play Shop. After that either connect with your Facebook account or mobile number, as well as you're in.
Functions
Boy, where to start with this. The list is long as well as swiftly expanding much longer, so let's experience (what I take into consideration) the biggest functions one-by-one:
Integrated SMS
This function made some rather significant headlines previously this year. MESSENGER can now be used as both your data-based messenging app as well as mobile SMS texting interface. No, it does not physically take control of cellular-based texting, yet it rules in all your incoming as well as outgoing messages right into it's user interface, providing you a solitary application to open up, regardless of the message's medium.
Conventional wisdom may challenge this migration, understanding Facebook's acquire need to be understand all the information of your web task ... Facebook itself has asserted that they pull no information concerning your texts back its web servers; it's only supplying this function [essentially] so you make use of or stay on the MESSENGER application that much longer. I guess it depends on you whether you're comfortable with that said notion.
Integrated Picture & Video Capture
This's not a real unique function, yet it's functionality it superior. While in the application, you can release either your device's front or back cam to quickly capture media for sharing objectives.
Video Chat
Nowadays not as much breaking-news, yet once again it functions actually, truly efficiently (though note: this doesn't work with SMS assimilation). Just by pressing the blue symbol. I state 'blue', due to the fact that it may be grey ... this tells you that individual isn't available to take a video phone call at that time. Neat!
In-App Gamings
When in a discussion, just click on the plot controller symbol and pick your fight. The list of video games is rather long, and also Facebook specifies it will certainly get longer in the short-term. While gaming has had a minimal existence within MESSENGER in the past, Facebook has simply this week released the canines on the full-boat video game offerings.
You can find out more regarding this new attribute here.
Contact Codes
Similar to Snapchat, MESSENGER supplies a ceramic tile with a scan-able code along with your instant & pertinent get in touch with info.
Show Location
If you're straying around community as well as are trying to meet up with some close friends, MESSENGER's location-sharing attribute may come in handy.
An Individualized Introduction (if you have a business/page)
If you have a business account or web page, MESSENGER permits you include a greeting, to turn up when someone opens up the application to send you a message. This is a terrific attribute to establishing the tone a customer (or potential one) experiences when interfacing with your brand.
Send Out Audio Clips (get rid of voicemail!).
I'm rather shocked this one isn't more prominent than it is. Instead of leaving a phone message (as well as making your buddy experience the strenuous task of navigating mobile voice mail), you can merely hit the microphone switch and also leave a voice message right in the application. So rather than needing to "dial-in", the receiver can get a notice and press "play". Ahhh ... it works so damn well.
Well-Composed Group Chats
Unlike typical SMS (where my experience has shown it to be an overall mess), MESSENGER manages group talks with relative aplomb. The major means they complete this is offering group talks their own tab, arranging them with each other as opposed to mixed amongst all your other conversations (particularly with people that additionally turn up in the group chats).
Stand-Alone Desktop App
OK, this isn't mobile-based, however I directly utilize it and also it functions well. Messenger.com will raise a structured user interface that works similar to the mobile application; so you do not have to maintain going to your phone while at your desk throughout the job day (given your employer is generally amazing with this, certainly).
Call an Uber. Or a Lyft
Right in the app is a menu alternative to "ask for a trip". From below you can choose 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 checklist, so it's easy to locate!
Mute notifications
If you're trying to obtain some work done, or have an additional commitment & don't intend to get averted with a Carrier conversation, you can pick to 'silence' notices from a particular thread for your selection of time (15 mins, 1 hr, etc.).
Send out & obtain money
... as well as Facebook doesn't also bill for the service. While in a discussion, click on the "$" icon, choose the amount you wish to send to the person you're talking with, and also enter your charge card details. Done.
Send your place (though not using Google Maps)
While you might not require this very typically, if you do discover your and also your good friends having problem finding each other while out & about it might can be found in rather convenient. Merely click your area, and your good friend( s) will certainly have the ability to view a click-able map to see specifically where you are.
Final thought
Love it or hate it, Facebook has constructed an excellent function set into an extremely well-performing app in MESSENGER. As well as combined with the crazy-big user base, it's obtaining harder daily to justify not using it (or at least having it mounted).
Hopefully you found some previously-unknown attribute that will certainly come in helpful for you. Or, maybe, you might have located your threshold reason to offer it a try. Allow us understand if you have any type of other must-try features in MESSENGER!
