With more than 2.4 billion active users each month, Facebook remains the most popular social media platform in the world. A popular Facebook function is chat. For that, the Facebook Messenger app rolled out for Android and iOS. Now, Facebook Messenger 226.0.0.5.117 Beta launched with bug fixes and performance improvements.
How Facebook Messenger came out
The beloved social network began as a small-scale project which aimed to help students from Harvard University to connect and interact with other colleagues. At first, membership was limited to Harvard students, but the popularity of the young service encouraged the founders to accept students from other colleges. Since 2006 any person who has an active email account and is at least 13 years old can access the platform without restrictions.
As smartphones started to become popular near the end of the previous decade, Facebook decided to harness the potential of an untapped market and released an official Facebook app. The app attracted a large number of users and contributed to the accelerated development of the company.
In 2011, a standalone messaging app was released for Android and iOS devices. It has managed to gain a large number of users, and it is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world.
