Facbook has launched a new messenger app that simplifies how messaging works, and gives you a faster way to message friends and small groups. It 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. You can use the app to reach all of your friends, be it on Facebook or in your phone contacts.
The Messenger app is basically an extension of Facebook messages, so all your conversations are in one place, including your texts, chats, emails and messages. Whether you’re on your phone or on the web, you can see the full history of all your messages.
The Facebook Messenger app is available for the iPhone and Android platforms for free.
