“Contact your friends through your phone”

by Christopher Park about Facebook Messenger

Facebook Messenger is an easier way to contact your friends.

While Facebook for Android is the one-stop place to control a Facebook account, sometimes users just want to just talk directly with their friends without working through the whole app. Facebook has now introduced their standalone Facebook Messenger app that focuses on contacting your friends directly.

Facebook Messenger combines friends and mobile contacts to allow for group messages along with location based functionality. The interface is simple and themed along with Facebook for Android, and also easy to use.

Since Facebook Messenger is focused on messaging, the app may seem a bit simplistic. It functions very similarly to other communication apps though, with the addition of location services. The group chat combines multiple users together and allows for messages to be collated in one window.

Facebook Messenger is a straightforward app with the focus simply on communicating with friends.

Pros
  • Allows for group messaging
  • Location service included
Cons
  • Very direct usability
