Ratings and Reviews
Having problems
An update to my previous review:
The bug still exists. A hint on how to reproduce it: if you are in a conversation and you go back to the phone home screen and the other party sends you a message and you open up the app without leaving the conversation, the notification badge won’t disappear until you go back to your chat list.
“Dear Developers, With the latest update my messenger notifications have disappeared. No sound, no vibration, no notification bar. I went to setting and tried manual notification switch off/on, but it didn’t solve it. Please check on it!”
Suggestion/Question
This is more like a question/suggestion regarding the app. Isn’t there a ‘mute option’ for only the Messenger?
It would be so great if there was a Silent Mode for the whole app rather than just the option to mute a specific person. The reason why is because e.g I don’t want to turn on the silent mode on my phone during the night because I want to be available for emergencies. However there are friends from different time zone who can send me messages while it is in the middle of the night for me and I don’t want to wake up for the notification.
(I know I could turn off only the internet and would still be available for calling but this option would be so great)
Anyway this is a great app, Thanks for your hard work on this! :)
Buggy as hell since 2 factor two factor authentication
A couple months ago facebook forced me to set up a pin for two factor authentication on desktop, since then messages missing, chats stucking in sending phase, it’s a horror and makes the platform useless, so I used only from Iphone.. until now, because today auto update happened and this curse followed into messenger app too, all the bug now on both platforms so I thinking leave messenger for good until this dev team fixes the issues. Please fix it, you making people days much harder through communication failures. It’s frustrating as hell.
