New features coming to Facebook and Instagram messaging

In recent days a new one Facebook update added some cool new features to Facebook and Instagram messaging. After the controversy related to privacy on WhatsApp, Zuckerberg's company is not doing very well. And so he decided to strengthen his messaging offer to attract users and avoid their migration to Signal or Telegram. So let's see what are the news that we will see in the coming days and that we could use to chat with our friends.



Facebook update: the new functions for Facebook and Instagram messages

Facebook

One of the most interesting features of the new Facebook update is undoubtedly that of the "Chat Archives". Starting today, in fact, it will be possible not to permanently delete the conversations, but to insert them in an archive that will allow you to restore them whenever you want. It will be enough for you swipe the chat to the left to archive it and then return to read it at your leisure.

Added to this is a new function for the recording of voice messages. With the new update, users will no longer have to hold down the registration button, but just touch it once to start it and another to close it, making everything easier and more practical. In addition, in order to better compete with other messaging platforms, Facebook has decided to introduce new chat themes. Among the options you will also find a Star Wars inspired theme and one to Netflix's Selena: The Series, so you can choose the one that best represents you. To activate it, just access the chat settings and tap the "Theme" item, which will allow you to set the background you prefer for both Facebook and Instagram conversations.

Starting today, to date, anyone who owns one iOS smartphone will have the ability to reply to private messages with a photo or video. A function that brings Instagram closer to Snapchat, thus putting them in strong competition.

But it is certainly not the only novelty introduced by the Facebook update. Now, in fact, users will be able to see if your friends have read the messages sent directly from the "Inbox" screen. It will therefore no longer be necessary to open the conversation, because the App will notify you when the user he read what you wrote. In short, few new but very useful functions, which respond well to Facebook's strategy: to be able to regain the trust of users.
