Facebook Messenger has officially been released for Windows Phone 8. But the app is missing the voice messaging feature.
Facebook has released its Facebook Messenger app for Windows Phone and now users can download it from the Windows Phone Store.
The Facebook Messenger for Windows Phone
was announced last week at the Mobile World Congress 2014, held in
Barcelona, Spain, by Joe Belfiore, Vice President of Windows Phone. The
Facebook Messenger app for Windows Phone comes with the same features as
iOS and Android platforms but without any voice messaging options.
The app lets you send photos privately,
share location with everyone, have group conversations and send stickers
to friends. All your Facebook friends are automatically added to the
'People' tab and a user can import new contacts as well. Users are able
to see, when people have seen their messages, which of their friends are
using Messenger and who's active on Facebook. Users can also turn off
notifications when working or sleeping. The only feature missing is that
the app has been released without any voice messaging options.
Rumors about the new Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8.1
update have also emerged on the web. Microsoft plans to make some
extensive changes in the interface with the new update. According to
leaked screenshots, the next WP update will bring an option to set a
background image on the Start screen. Users will also have an option to
make Live Tiles transparent that can be skinned with an image in the
background. The new update will also bring Cortana,
Microsoft's much anticipated voice assistant service to the Lumia
smartphones. The new Windows Phone 8.1 update is expected to be launched
in early 2014.
