8 things you can do with facebook messenger

Four things you can do with Facebook messenger



Messenger app was introduced for download to enable users to send messages direct. This has brought about the facebook stopped in allowing you to send message in-app. Kudos to Messenger as it has come a long way since the inception and now, it has some really cool features.

Here's a list of some great things available for you to try on messenger that you probably don't know about.

• Reactions on your face

      You know those little reaction emojis that you can put on Facebook posts if a "like" just doesn't           cut it? Now you can put those on your face during a video call. Of course, you already have your         face during a video there doing the reaction for you but added giant tear drops are a fun feature.

      Once in a video chat, you'll have options at the bottom of the screen to add filters, masks and               reactions. Try tapping them both with the camera pointed at you and away from you for extra               fun.

• Have a secret conversation

       If you have sensitive information that you want to share with someone, this is a right feature for          you. Not only are the messages encrypted from device to device, making it totally secure, you              can also set your message to delete itself within a certain time of being seen.

• Plan a holiday

      Scheduling on flights, hotels and car hire can be taxing when it's just you making the decisions.           when you have a make a decision with a group of people, it can become a truly excruciating               experience. The KAYAK extension won't make a decision for you, but it is an incredibly easy             way of suggesting ideas to your group. You can search for flights or hotels individually, or even           cooler you can use Travel Planner to create a poll of possible destinations and dates, and share             with the group so they can all vote on it.
      In a chat, just tap on the blue plus icon in the bottom left corner, then tap on the KAYAK logo.

• React to things people have said

      Sometimes, people say things in message that require a reaction, but there are only so many                 "yeah", "cool" and "lol" responses you can type before you can start losing your mind.                         Thankfully, you can use the same reactions in Facebook Messenger.
