IERI (Yesterday) the Facebook Messenger application has been updated and although the company Facebook did not mention this, users can now share through this chat service any kind of files existing in their Dropbox accounts without saving them beforehand in the terminals.
File sharing option dropbox directly from Messenger is available through the file sharing menu, the application Facebook Messenger being able to preview the multimedia content before sending, so you know in advance what you are going to share.
Dropbox is used on a large scale by hundreds of millions of people, and the integration in Facebook Messenger will make file sharing much simpler, everything being possible thanks to the collaboration between Facebook and Dropbox, plus the share sheets system of iOS 9.
Facebook has not announced the new function because today the annual F8 conference dedicated to Facebook developers will take place, so Mark Zuckerberg or other vice presidents will announce everything in the second part of the day, but you can enjoy this function right now.
Now, when you tap the More button in Messenger for iOS or Android, you'll see Dropbox as an available source. With the Dropbox app installed on your phone, you can share any file in your Dropbox without having to leave the Messenger app.
To be able to use the new function of Facebook Messenger, you must have the latest version of the application installed, which is available since last night.
