Facebook Messenger has two great new functions implemented in the Android application, the ones from Facebook offering users something that many of them have been waiting for since a few years ago. The first of the functions is intended to allow Facebook Messenger users to select which of the notifications from the platform are sent to their phones, something that Google allows since Android Oreo, but which is offered only at this moment.
Facebook Messenger now allows users to select whether they want to receive notifications for everything that happens on the platform, or only for certain types of actions, i.e. likes, messages, comments, tags, etc. You can see in the image below what the settings menu looks like for the notifications sent by Facebook Messenger for users, it must be searched among all the settings that are available for the Facebook application.
Facebook Messenger: Two GREAT Features for Android
Facebook Messenger also has another very interesting function implemented, this one having to do with the icon of the application, adapting to the theme that Android users use. More precisely, the shape of the Facebook Messenger icon will change depending on the theme that is applied by the user, so it can be square, round, or any other shape the application icons have after applying any theme that is available for phone and tablet users with this operating system.
Facebook Messenger has the second function activated automatically on phones and tablets with the Android operating system, but in the case of the first one, it is necessary to search and choose the available options. It is possible that not everyone has the new options for Facebook Messenger notifications available for now, their propagation is becoming quite difficult, so you will have to be patient until everything is available for you, if that is the case.
