Messenger 439.0.0

Messenger is a free chat platform from Facebook that allows you to easily communicate with your Facebook friends. With Messenger, you can send messages, make audio and video calls, and even have group conversations with multiple people.

While Facebook has been known for its safety concerns, Messenger offers features that can make the app safer to use. For example, Messenger Vanish Mode automatically erases your sent messages after they have been viewed, ensuring your privacy. Additionally, Secret chats provide end-to-end encryption for added security.

Messenger is available as a standalone application for both desktop and mobile devices. It is compatible with Android, Apple Mac, iOS, and Microsoft Windows PC operating systems. If you want to send direct messages on Facebook using your iPhone, you will need to download the Messenger app as the built-in messenger in the Facebook app or website does not work on mobile devices.

To log in to Messenger, simply use your Facebook account credentials. Once logged in, you will see two main tabs at the bottom of the screen: 'Chats' and 'People'. The 'Chats' tab displays your active and past conversations, with profile pictures and names of the people you are messaging. You can also see their 'Active Status' and the timestamp of their last activity on Messenger.

In the 'Chats' tab, you can also create video calls using the 'Create room' option, which allows you to add up to 50 people to the call. If you prefer written messages, you can click on the pen icon to start a new group conversation or send individual messages.

Messenger also allows you to message people who are not your Facebook friends. If you have an Instagram account, Messenger syncs your Instagram friends to your Messenger account, making it easier to connect with them.

One of the privacy settings in Messenger is Vanish Mode, which automatically erases your sent messages after they have been viewed. Secret chats, on the other hand, provide end-to-end encryption for secure conversations. You can turn existing chats into Secret chats or start new ones by selecting the 'Secret' option.

Messenger is constantly updated with new features and improvements. It offers a range of messaging options, including text, photos, videos, voice recordings, and stickers. You can also see when your messages have been seen, forward messages or photos, search for people and groups, and even share your location.

Overall, Messenger is a standalone messaging service that allows you to easily connect with your Facebook friends. It offers a range of features and privacy settings to ensure a safe and enjoyable messaging experience.
