With about one and a half billion monthly active users, Facebook’s Messenger platform has become as popular as Facebook. Meta Company is adding various new features to it.In terms of the number of users in the messaging app, only WhatsApp is ahead of Messenger. Mark Zuckerberg is trying to integrate Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp under Meta Company. In Facebook Messenger, the company has introduced features such as money transfer, video calls and encryption.

Conversations from Messenger to other apps
Before Facebook spent billions of dollars on Instagram and WhatsApp, Messenger was first launched in 2008 as a Facebook chat. Currently, with all the three platforms under its ownership, Meta Company is trying to merge these platforms. Now if you’re running Messenger, you can chat with someone on Instagram without switching apps.

To block access between Meta Company’s messaging apps from one to another, you must go to Settings > Privacy > Message Delivery. With this, you can choose whether Instagram friends can message you directly from Messenger or whether you have to approve it first or completely block such access.

Create a room
To compete with group video chat platforms such as Zoom, Facebook launched a feature called Messenger Rooms, which made it possible for many people to gather together in a video call from Messenger. In this, you can create a messenger room and invite your friends to share the screen, play games and watch videos together. You can also watch video clips, watch TV shows or watch movies within the chat. This feature is available on Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp.
