Facebook Messenger. Extremely important changes for the iOS and Android applications were officially announced today by the Facebook company, and this after it was also announced the change of the interface for the main application. Returning to Facebook Messenger, the first major news announced is the implementation of the option to allow sending messages to WhatsApp and Instagram, even if users do not have accounts on those platforms, the functionality to be offered in 2019.
Facebook Messenger. Before that serious novelty arrives, the messaging application will have an improved design, which will make it smaller in size, but also much faster to use on iOS. Facebook Messenger will have a size of only 30 MB, a fifth of the current one, and at least on iPhone and iPad, it will start in less than 2 seconds, that is, approximately the same as the Lite version offered on Android for some time.

Facebook Messenger. Next, the application will offer a special section to watch video clips with friends or family members, and will improve the secure communication that users have when talking to different people.

Considering that 410 million users make video calls through the messaging platform every month, Facebook decided to implement the "watch party" function that I told you about above. Regarding the encryption of messages, theoretically Facebook Messenger already had something like this, but it seems that it is not quite what we imagined, so Facebook is still "improving the system", that is, it is still deceiving the world with nothing.
Facebook Messenger. Many of these novelties will be available in the coming months for iOS and Android users, but for now it is not very clear when this will happen, so you have to be patient.
