Ratings and Reviews
Question + Good stuff about this app
Hi! I love this app as you can like chat with your friends and stuff, but I would like to know if when you video call, will there be a place where you can play games with the person you are calling???????
I like how there is lots and lots of themes and emojis. My favorite emoji is the Purple Heart💜, when I press it, lots and lots more Purple Hearts will come out, you can try it your self if you don’t understand. I love how they have all those backgrounds in video calls. I really hope that when there are new themes, the old ones will not disappear and you can change it over and over again!
Messages sent to one friend end up on another chat
I don’t usually use Facebook Messenger since WhatsApp is my primary app but sometimes if I want to share posts and stuff to small group of friends I will use it. So this has happened twice already and it’s frustrating as hell. I would share a post, make a comment before I sent to a friend. Twice, on different occasions, when I checked back for replies, I saw that my comment + post that was sent to one friend ends up on some chat group which I haven’t been using for more than 3 years bare minimum. I deleted the group chat the first time it happened. And ... I have to delete the second one when it happened too. This can’t keep happening. I only click “send” to one person and it should stay that way. How it made it to another chat is beyond me because that chat would have been at the bottom of the chat list and wouldn’t been visible to me at all unless I scrolled all the way down.
Inactive messages disappeared automatically without deleting it
All inactive messages and group chats conversations disappeared automatically in messenger without me deleting it. This problem happened after updating app to latest version. I’m still in many old inactive group chats conversations in messenger app, and I didn’t quit groups or delete them but I cannot see all my inactive conversations in app anymore unless someone starts conversations again. If the conversation is inactive again for about 4-5 days, it disappeared automatically again in messenger. I checked these messages aren’t archived as well. I want all my inactive old conversations back in my messenger, please. :( Please fix it. I don’t remember all the names of group chat conversations to search again. :( Please don’t make inactive messages disappear automatically in messenger app unless we delete them.
