Facebook Messenger
Facebook Messenger is an application made by Facebook that allows users to instant message others. Users can either chat with people on their friends list or people that they've just met. In addition to basic messaging, users can also send photos, videos, emojis, and gifs. Users can have the messenger downloaded without having the Facebook application installed and vice versa.
This application gives users many options to have a more personalized experience. In addition to choosing light or dark mode for the messenger, users can do a lot of other things. This includes changing the display names in each chat, setting their reaction bar, and send or receive payments. You can find exactly what you're looking for by searching for a specific word or phrase. You can also easily find photos and videos shared in different chats by looking at the settings.
With many updates and new features, Facebook Messenger is still one of the most popular instant messaging applications on the market. Since users can choose many different settings and customization options, they can have an experience that's tailored specifically for them.
