"techspot" declare : Facebook Messenger reaches 1.2 billion users

collected by :Andro Alex

as informed in Yesterday, the service passed another milestone: 1.2 billion monthly active users (MAUs). Like the social network itself, Facebook Messenger is incredibly popular. Last year, Facebook introduced sponsored messages to its chat service, but companies could only send messages to users who initiated a conversation. The figure marks an increase of 200 million users over the last eight months and means Messenger now has a similar number of MAUs as WhatsApp, which Facebook also owns. Speaking to TechCrunch, Marcus said the chat app had become the "primary communications channel" for many users.


according to Facebook users were encouraged to download it to keep in touch with their friends and family. Seems like it was just yesterday that Facebook Messenger was launched as a standalone app. This is a huge milestone for the company since this means that Facebook Messenger is now as big as WhatsApp, another cross-platform messaging app that's owned by Facebook. Instagram has a lot of catching up to do before it hits the one billion milestone since it's currently at 600 million users. Even Facebook's main app is closing in on the 2 billion user mark.It currently sits at 1.9 billion.
