Messenger Positive Reviews
From USA 🇺🇸 to SCOTLAND 🏴Coming from the days when teenagers would tie up the family phone line for hours - just sitting on the line w your bestie, one who you just spent most of ur day at school, you get chores done-homework complete & sit on the phone for the rest of the night - not saying much of anything-The only way anyone else might get thru would be a Emergency Breakthrough- Additionally if the person who made the call is outside of the others city limit- well that call is going to COST YOU.! We’ll cost your parent paying the mo. bill - While today … we get on
iMessenger & ⏰talk for hours with out any long distance fees! Imagine the money spent on Long-Distance and let me tell you … it was never cheap..! So when ask for a review or to critique my 1.56hr. conversation- It was splendid 📱🎖️To imagine the savings well … i’d take a high phone bill vs. all the added modern conveniences the internet has brought us - The trade off - well there isn’t one - but communicating w a friend across the pond for hours at no additional cost is one positive perk and wonder just how long it’ll last-They soon will figure out a way to take more for the lil they already got for free and we the consumer will roll over since we don’t have a choice !.Why limitationsVersion: 500.0.0
Great but definitely could be better!Compared to previous versions of the app this is by far the best one but personally I think it would definitely be much better if a few things were changed on it. Even just the smallest changes could make it way better. Simplicity is key always. With this being said I think by making the main messenger screen less complex and having it to where you can go in the app and out quicker could have a great affect on everything including the ratings. Meaning having the Messenger App uncomplicated and more straight forward I know I would personally be happier with it and use it daily and as well as a good amount of individuals I know. For example if someone could get on message a friend & respond right back; almost compared to AIM or slightly like iMessage. It would change the game completely and have a higher rating guaranteed. Only asking to take it into consideration. :).Obsessed w/ makeupVersion: 147.0
Poor EthicsI have always hated the app from the moment i downloaded it, it is so frustrating to use and completely unnecessary as any other social media has a messaging tab already installed. i find it interesting that you NEED it to message people through FB, ig another way to profit off of and it makes it easier to grasp more people’s data through conversations. However I’m deleting for many other reasons.
Far right censorship with Meta is absolutely bonkers among far more. Opened my eyes to it growing up with facebook and hearing for years about the fact Meta has been in multiple legal suits for foreign corruption, bias news involvement, selling data abroad and yet they were still so greatly popular. Can’t get around using instagram, facebook, messenger or any meta products anymore due to the lack of care for the users security, the users data leaks and data being sold internationally, and far right bias censoring of media. This is the one app that has the most security breaches of ANY app i have ever downloaded. I will not continue to give you any engagement, scrolls or any space on my phone. I hope you’re able to find the ethics you’ve lacked for so long, I feel guilty for not deleting sooner..Punch208Version: 491.0.0
GratefulWell, I don’t like the person who owns this company at all. I think these rich mega megalomaniacs need to take a step backwards and start smelling the roses. It’s beyond my comprehension why they think they need more. Jajaja, he will never spend it all in his lifetime or 50 more lifetimes. He should give all of you guys at Meta a raise. lol
That’s said, I use Messenger to communicate with my daughter and she happens to be in another place. and I don’t live near her. We speak on a daily basis, it’s way easier to use this app, than to get on the phone and call her, especially since I don’t have a smart phone. Yup…I don’t have a phone. My partner has the phone all the time, and I’m not going to waste money on another stupid phone. I’ve no need for one.
I have an IPad, I use it to watch videos,that’s what tablets are for. And I can use it to call my beautiful daughter and my cute adorable grandsons,I have three, thus the reason why I’m very grateful..Monamae12Version: 497.0.0
Update please fix!I love messenger and how you can connect with your friends and family etc. However I’m not too fond with this new update because it’s easier to tell if someone has read your message by seeing their bubble next to your message, unfortunately that feature is removed :(. I also miss whenever I would go to look at pictures it was easier just to scroll down and see the pictures exchanged instead of going through the option “View Photos & Videos” it just looks kinda bland. Last but not least please change it back or at least improve it 😁 including the “search messages option” like make it to where we can the dates these messages were sent so there would be no confusion. Thanks!
Update: Please bring back the old features such as reminders and pills and the fun blow up emojis, the games and things that would make it look fun not bland!.AlexisPR87Version: 253.1
No notifications for requests & stuck Facebook notificationsI don’t use messenger much, but am part of few community groups like Buy Nothing where group members use messenger to communicate details about where to pick up items Being given away. Unfortunately, at present there does not seem to be an option to allow messenger to notify you when a request to communicate through messenger is received or accepted. This means when someone genuinely wants an item, they may appear to be unresponsive because they don’t realize they have a messenger request to communicate. it would be nice to have an option to allow messenger notifications around requests to inform people who aren’t already connected with about requests.
Also, there is a bug that is creating red badge notifications within Facebook when you have messages in messenger and reading the message does not clear the red dot notifications in Facebook. so far the only thing that clears it is uninstalling messenger, which is super annoying..GreenvinoVersion: 471.0.0
Normally I adore this appHowever, it's super irritating with this current version, that I can't play messenger games with people without it looking like I have an unread message from each individual because either them or I have made a move in the game. App badges would be enough for me, within the application. Separate the games notifications from the messenge notifications please! Badges on the game tab and that's it would be super nice. If I want to play games I'll go over there. But I'm actually losing messages in all these integrated game notifications...
Also still having an issue with messenger not allowing me to continue typing a message when the phone is rotated. The whole app freezes and I am forced to close or send a half typed message. Many times this happens and it was not intentional at all. A fix would be fantastic. Currently functioning off iOS 11.2.1 on the 7plus..NetworkMarketingProfessionalVersion: 147.0
Facebook MessengerI've never really been a fan of messenger from when it was introduced. The practice of PM's directly to a member's page was stopped. I was told if I wanted to PM other members I had to download the messenger app. I use it mainly to communicate with my son when he's online. I do enjoy playing the bingo game, but I have issues with that. The timer seems much faster than normal. I think the count of the bingos I've had is off. This past weekend, their practice of showing ads for a few extra points has not been "available". This wouldn't be a big deal but, when it does come up, it pauses the game till you finish. Because it's "unavailable", you're unable to continue to that game, you can't complete the operation. I went to Facebook Support to report it, the statement that came up, "Not everyone has the games available to them on the app.". Guess I have to submit a note..Mmbar1Version: 147.0
I like using MessengerMessenger has become my go-to platform for staying connected with friends, family. I love how easy it is to communicate with anyone, whether through quick messages, voice notes, or even video calls. The interface is intuitive and user-friendly, making it simple to keep track of conversations and jump back into chats seamlessly.
One of my favorite features is the ability to create group chats, which makes coordinating plans and sharing updates with multiple people a breeze. Messenger’s security features also give me peace of mind, knowing my conversations are protected. I also enjoy the extra features like GIFs, stickers, and reactions that add personality to my chats, making them fun and engaging.
Overall, Messenger is a reliable, efficient, and enjoyable app that meets my needs for both personal and professional communication..MazFDVersion: 482.2.0
How to turn off group chats?I have been using messenger for a very long time. It’s a good app for texting, calling, video chating, sharing pics, taking videos, and communicate with friends and family but my biggest pet peeve about the app is that we do not have options that allows us to turn off people adding you in a group. I have friends that aren’t super phone savvy and they will put me like over 20 group chats or more each day. I just think there should be option in the messenger settings to turn off people adding you in more group chats for those who do not want to use it. Also an option you can turn it back on if you do want to be added in more groups because I definitely can leave a group chat but if someone puts me in 20 more that doesn’t help leaving the group chat. Hopefully there is a way they can add this feature in the future. I also would like an option for custom backgrounds like Snapchat does..GrebenickkkkVersion: 509.0.0

They Claim the objective was to make app. Smaller. rather they took a lot of it’s capabilities awaySince they continue with updates constantly. The only improvement I see is the emoji are better then they use to be. Fb messager has been Stripped of all the things that made it a great! Therefore me and about everyone else I know are looking for another messager app. that have the capabilities that messager once had. The ever continuing updates , has only mades Fb messager less and less useful. Rather for business or simply connecting with family and friends. Fb message is Not what it once was! Again ... with each update messagerhas been made to be less useful and less appealing to those who used it frequently. It’s a shame really, yet with All the Negative reviews here, it goes upon deaf ears. They may start to care when other messager app. prove to take their place among users! Fb messager has failed their users tremendously..MK4744Version: 256.0
Convenient?!I have many friends living in other countries and this app make it very convenient to contact them. Great app!!
On the other hand, the Apple Watch version of this application falls off the cliff. There is a complete disconnect with the iPhone application and Apple Watch’s application. The issue happens to be a prolonged loading-gate wheel that will last for days-on-end without the data populating from the phone to the watch. I removed the app from my Apple Watch due to this plaguing inconvenience. Please fix this issue swiftly! Many of your users forum here and on other sites have this similar problem! Consensus suggests that you keep sweeping this issue under the rug. As an app developer, you should repair this service to solidify unit between all devices that uses your app. Recently, they ever wing app stopped working but works in older versions of iOS!.ShimoorekVersion: 253.3
NotificationsJust a thought but what if the people we talk to regularly what if we got a notification when they were online only the people we talk to regularly though or people we choose like in settings to have notifications every time they’re online because I personally message my cousin like every single day but it takes like an hour and a half to get a hold of them because they’re usually not online when I’m online or I’m not online when they’re online and so it takes like an hour and a half to actually get a hold of them if not longer and so if I got a notification like just a little ding or something like that whenever they were online then I would know when they were online and I could talk to them and it wouldn’t take so long to get a hold of them
Just a thought thx 🙏.RUNNINGWATERLIVEVersion: 401.0
Fun. Quick. Easy to use.Surprisingly good quality phone calls. No where near as fascinating and incredible as Google Voice but FB can try and catch up? Emojis could be WAY better. FB should consider hiring the AT&T Q Messenger designer to upgrade to their interactive emojis. Occasionally at the call connection it can be difficult to hear initial greetings. No static or scratching noises on the calls. NEVER ANY ECHOING. How soon will FB Messenger offer voicemail to go with the audio calls? And then translate them into voice-clips? Now THAT would be neato. Video calls? 10/10. Calls? 10/10. Messages? 10/10. Notifications? 5/10. There are so many disappointments in the type and manner of notifications that I can’t list them. FB Messenger will never beat nor compare to Google Voice but it’s a fun, quick and easy way to interact with family..Kayla THE Kyle MomVersion: 500.0.0
Messages deletion issues/hacksI dislike the fact when deleting conversations or messages the other end can still read them. What’s the point of deleting if it’s not deleted on the other end? And there’s got to be ways to delete multiple messages at one time. That’s another big annoying tasks to do. I used FB Messenger all the time and I thought by updating it to Messenger would help but it is still having the same crisis matter of unable to delete messages to not be seen by the other end and deleting multiple messages all at once. I like using it but this seems very annoying. I’ll be disconnecting FB Messenger and FB page soon. Another big problem are hackers with both apps. There’s no real privacy no matter how bad you mess with the security of the apps..Crises 4.17.18Version: 161.0
I absolutely love the app, but…I really love Facebook messenger don’t get me wrong. It is my primary form of communication through social media, but no matter how hard I try to not let it bug me that I can no longer see if my messages deliver, I can’t help it. It’s been over a year since Apple took the little circle away when you send a message until that person views it and it’s still nerve racking to me. Especially with the fact that on Androids and at least some Windows PC’s, it still allows you to have the circle. Occasionally my app will glitch and if someone else logs into their account on my phone it will allow them to have the circle.
Anyways, if there’s any chance that small problem could be solved, I would gladly give a full 5 star rating. But until that day comes, I’ll stick with a 4. Honestly if it would allow me to give a 4.5 rating I definitely would..PrincessKewiiiVersion: 420.0
Accessibility for the blind, or low vision, or x30 challengeThis skill is great, and I love it uses it daily. I just have a couple of critiques. It is mostly compatible for those of us in the world. Who are the vision or blind. Or have other physical impairments. However, there are a few things that you must have vision in order to use. Did not used to be this way in the earlier generations messenger it was 100% accessible and usable. Now it’s not. it’s 85% maybe 90% fully compatible. For those of us with low vision being forced to have to use eyesight to do features and functions while it’s not workable. Some of the command changes require greater levels of the x30 for those up as a bit of a challenge is difficult or outright impossible. I do wish they would go back to where the scale was completely accessible and usable. Otherwise great skill I use it every day..Raven primeVersion: 475.1.0

Group chatsHi,
Wondering why if FB owns WhatsApp why doesn’t the client behave the same in a group chat. If I am away from a group chat for a while in WhatsApp is picks up right where I left off when I comeback. Messenger just gives you this “20+ unread messages” thing and then takes you back sort of where you were but not quite as good as WhatsApp.
Can you please fix Messenger to be gave like WhatsApp? It would be so much less annoying to use if if just behaved like WhatsApp.
Thanks

Love videocallsIt’s a fun app. 🕹Developer request: could position of friend’s video image be a user-changeable option? Would like to reposition it to top of screen, closest to camera lens. It would be more satisfying if the person you’re video chatting with appeared to make eye contact with me while we chat, rather than hooded eyelids as they look down. (Maybe this would look crosseyed, but hopefully it would film as a shared gaze, which is more fun in a conversation).

Messenger keeps kicking me offFor the past three days messenger has literally been kicking me from the app nonstop. If I’m lucky I can get it to work enough for me to send maybe one message before it starts doing the same thing. I click the app to open it, it tries to open, then immediately shuts down. Over and over and over. And now when I do get into it, if it actually allows me to stay on the app, it no longer allows me access to my photos. I try to go to settings to allow access, but the app isn’t asking for permission in my settings. So I can’t even fix that. But I’m more concerned with the fact that I literally can’t get messenger to open unless I shut my phone off and on three or four times in a row. And when it does let me in, I know I have a limited amount of time before it does it again. It’s done this once before I few months back, and there was an update that fixed it and I had no more issues until recently. So I keep looking on here for an update, but haven’t seen one yet- so I’m curious if it’s just my phone specifically or if it’s the app itself. Either way it’s extremely irritating especially when it’s the main (and basically only) way that I communicate with people. And now I can’t even do that. It’s extremely frustrating to just continuously be kicked out of the app for no apparent reason. Please fix this...LadylambertVersion: 358.0
LobbyingThis app is an absolute nightmare of functionality and privacy invasion. Facebook has transformed what should be a simple messaging platform into a bloated, intrusive digital menace that consumes battery life, violates user privacy, and delivers a consistently terrible user experience.
The privacy concerns are staggering. By downloading Messenger, you essentially grant Facebook carte blanche to access your microphone, camera, and network connectivity at any moment. The app demands permissions that feel more like a surveillance tool than a communication platform.
Messaging reliability is a complete joke. Messages frequently fail to send, disappear randomly, and the end-to-end encryption seems to cause more problems than it solves. Links won’t open, media sharing is broken, and the app constantly crashes. The user interface is a confusing mess that prioritizes Facebook’s data collection over actual user needs.
What’s most infuriating is how Facebook forces users into this ecosystem. Want to message a friend? You’re required to download this privacy-destroying app. The constant notifications, battery drain, and invasive permissions make Messenger feel less like a communication tool and more like a digital parasite.
Save yourself the frustration. This app is a masterclass in how not to design a messaging platform..GetfudgeVersion: 490.0.0
Retrieve those important features on MessengerI noticed that a few useful features on Facebook and Messenger were removed these days. (1) The new update to bury the buyer’s profile icon from an order is disappointing and useless. (2)The notification of receiving orders from Messenger now is gone. (3)Messages from potential buyers on Messenger automatically disappear after turning off the app (or after a particular amount of offline time.)
As a seller, I always reach out to my buyers for delivery of their packages and, at least, say thank you for their purchase. Now these important features, both online and on the app, were buried so that there’s no way to contact my buyers for that or for any shipping issues involving the orders, if that could possibly happen.
Now the only way for me to contact my buyers is to raise a new conversation by typing their full names and looking into their profile images for recognizing if they’re the right person. But the problem is that the new message may or may not been seen by the buyer in time, because I’m not a friend of the buyer to raise the conversation, and the message may be treated as spam message and has notification to the buyer at all.
I’m looking forward to getting those useful, important features back on Marketplace/ Messenger..AlbertczzzzVersion: 364.0
One Star - A Privacy Nightmare That Drains Your BatteryFacebook Messenger is a disaster of an app. Not only is it riddled with privacy concerns, but it also has a disturbing tendency to drain your phone’s battery at an alarming rate. It feels like the app is constantly running in the background, using up resources even when you’re not actively using it. If you’re trying to save battery or optimize your phone, this app will quickly prove itself to be your worst enemy.
But the worst part? Facebook Messenger steals more data than you’d expect. It’s been caught mapping Wi-Fi networks and collecting sensitive information without your explicit consent. The app accesses way more of your personal data than it needs, including your location, contacts, and even your camera and microphone, all under the guise of “enhancing your experience.” In reality, it’s just collecting as much data as possible to feed into Facebook’s ever-growing surveillance machine.
It’s infuriating to see an app that should just be a simple messaging tool turned into another data-harvesting machine that uses your phone’s resources as if they’re its own. If you care about your privacy and phone’s battery life, stay far away from Messenger. It’s a terrible app that proves Facebook can’t be trusted with your information..KelpieAVersion: 490.0.0
A major security risk. They steal your data and lobby against your rightsBlackrock owns 18 billion dollars in meta shares and they are the reason most of us can’t own a home, or go to school, and now even afford to buy our poisoned food. Meta is tied at the hip to the military industrial complex and their app is designed to stoke political divide. They say TikTok is the most dangerous propaganda machine, but the reality is they are scared because it’s NOT there propaganda machine. Everyone on TikTok knows it’s the same content as meta but with better algorithms, you can have a diverse n feed that actually reflects the diversity of human interests, whereas Facebook just wants you to go red or blue and keep fighting each her. Ever notice why you agree with one thing ans like one post and suddenly your getting political content? Like one thing that talks bad about Joe Biden actually being a bad president, and meta starts showing you trump posts. In metas corporate owned algorithm, it’s all about maintaining the political divide that benifits their investments the most. Because the reality is meta, congress, the Oval Office, big oil, the military industrial complex, the medical industry, housing, tech, food and agriculture, are all linked by a blood soaked paper trail.

Overloaded and UnderwhelmingMeta Messenger, once a convenient tool for connecting with friends and family, has become a bloated and frustrating app that struggles to deliver a seamless experience. What used to be a simple messaging platform is now overrun with unnecessary features, intrusive notifications, and aggressive integration with Facebook, making it feel more like a tool for Meta’s data collection than genuine communication.
The app’s performance is inconsistent, often lagging or crashing, especially with video calls or large group chats. The constant push to use features like chat themes, stickers, or gaming options feels excessive, and the addition of ads within chats makes the experience even less enjoyable. Privacy concerns remain a major issue, as the app collects vast amounts of data, leaving users to question how secure their messages really are.
While Meta Messenger still fulfills basic messaging needs, it has lost the simplicity and reliability that once set it apart. Instead of focusing on user experience, it seems more interested in monetization and forcing integration with other Meta platforms. For those looking for a cleaner, more private alternative, apps like Signal or WhatsApp offer far better options..BeyoncéKnowles__Version: 490.0.0
It’s great, but…The app is great because of how often my mother has used it and it’s pretty good not going to lie! But once I downloaded it it was a disaster, I tried to make a account but I accidentally didn’t read one of the things they had to say so I pretty sure it was about synching the contacts so I didn’t read that and then when I was actually logged in I couldn’t search for my contacts because it said that “no results found” and my whole purpose of being on messaged was to talk to my family so now that was bulldozed by not being able to synch or search for my contacts. And I’m not able to make a new account because it said at the end about a Facebook account, and if I pressed that I didn’t have a account (which I didn’t) I would have to make one which I never asked for, nor wanted, so I was forced to get a account which I say this again… I NEVER WANTED, so then I just deleted the app whole because I NEVER wanted a Facebook account but I was forced to, I wasn’t able to get on messenger, and I just wish the sign up or log in was more simple. Messager here’s a message: STOP NEEDING PEOPLE TO HAVE A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT WHEN PEOPLE NEVER WANT ONE, AND ALSO MAKE THE SIGN UP MORE SIMPLE 👏🏼👎🏼.713_vxleriaVersion: 443.0.0
Social media Rev!Facebook, once the go-to social media platform, has devolved into a frustrating, cluttered experience that prioritizes profits over user satisfaction. The algorithm feels more like an attempt to sell you things than actually connect with friends, and the constant bombardment of ads only worsens the experience. Worse, the platform is plagued with privacy issues, misinformation, and censorship, leaving many users frustrated with the lack of transparency and control over their own data.
Mark Zuckerberg's recent lobbying to ban TikTok adds an even darker layer to Facebook’s already troubling reputation. It’s clear that this move isn’t about protecting users or national security, but more about securing Facebook’s market dominance. Instead of innovating or improving their own platform, Zuckerberg seems more interested in suppressing competition, all while trying to appear like the benevolent tech mogul. It’s a sad reflection of the platform’s priorities, and it's one more reason to look elsewhere for meaningful social connections. If you value your privacy and want a social media platform that encourages diversity of thought instead of corporate manipulation, Facebook is not the place to be..Katybeth 211Version: 490.0.0
Messenger reviewThere’s no problem with the actual app itself. The problem is with 90% of people who use this app. I have a lot of experience with buying AND selling on marketplace. The majority of people don’t read the description and then ask you questions that you already answered in the add. 90% of people ask if it’s available. I tell them it is and then never hear from them again. I’m currently selling a $4000 motorcycle for $2000. Not a single person offered me anything close to my asking price. I get ridiculous offers from $500 to $1000. Overall it’s been a terrible experience.
The same thing happens when I’m trying to buy something. I had all the cash I needed to buy someone’s car. They either don’t respond, or it’ll take days to get a response. I once agreed to meet up with someone to buy their car. Had to go to the bank to take the money out and drive 45 minutes to get to the car… once I got there the guy stopped answering his phone.
Moral of the story. Don’t use marketplace. It’s full of time wasters and tire kickers. Use Craigslist. You have to pay a fee to post a listing on there so everyone is serious about buying or selling..KevingideonmccrackenVersion: 475.1.0
Terrible.I am totally blind and a voiceover user on an Apple iPhone. I have used messenger for many years and have been very thankful for it, but the last several updates have had the same issue. They were resolved until the next update, and then Messenger was broken again. I am still able to type in text fields and access various information in the app, but messenger jumps up to the previous page of messages and continuously reads down until it gets to the end. I can’t hit the back button to leave my current chat. I can’t get into a text field, I can’t do anything once it starts reading, and while it is reading, and I’m trying to type or anything, it is entering random letters under my finger, but because voiceover is very slowly reading down the last two or three pages worth of messages, it isn’t telling me that I’m inputting things so that if I don’t check, when I send my next message, it’s full of gobbledygook. I can’t stop it from reading or see the current text field that I am in without leaving the app completely and re-entering it again. It’s very annoying and it slows my productivity down a lot..Blind Robot LadyVersion: 469.0.0
Please update ASAP I’m gettifn frustrated with the “message failed to sent” errorI don’t know if I’m just not understanding why but this is the first time this has happened to me can you please update the app I’m writing this Christmas Day 2023 and I sent messages to a bunch of people saying merry Christmas and most of them went through but there some messages saying failed to send when i don’t understand hod that’s possible because I have great phone cellular service and great internet so I don’t understand. I tried deleting a bunch of old chats and restarting my phone but it’s still doing that. The into thigh I didn’t do that I’m curious if it will work or not if I’d if I delete messenger completely and then redownload it but I don’t want to lose any information on the app if I do that. It still lets me message people but it’s a pain when I try to mesages certain people and it does that when I’ve never experienced this problem before until now. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP PLEASE because messenger is one of the ways I talk to friends and family the most and it’s hard to do that right now when I’m getting the error message. Thanks please fix this bye..🤧😷🤠🤡👺👹👿👻Version: 439.0.0
Toxic, divisive trashFacebook used to be a place where I would keep in touch with my family and friends around the world, but over the last few years, it has begun pushing a rage based engagement model that has caused irreparable damage to the fabric of our entire society. There is so much hate, vitriol, arrogance, and unmitigated disinformation that proliferates every comment section. I feel deeply unhappy and anxious whenever I see the content that Facebook pushes, and sickeningly disillusioned with my fellow man with the tone of the conversations there. It is toxic and so incredibly divisive. That is not even to mention what Mark Zuckerberg is doing with the spoils of his echo chamber. He has colonized a massive piece of land in Hawaii, pushing people off the land even with their ancestral claim to it. He is everything evil and selfish and exploitative in the world, and he has spread his cancerous worldview throughout the world. Because of facebook’s proliferation of hate speech and propaganda, there was a literal genocide of the Rohingya people in Burma. It is sick, and it makes me nauseous every time I think of the people I care about who are still using it. Delete your account and any other Meta product..Itstawanda2uVersion: 490.0.0
FAFO zuckI deleted this app, re-downloaded it, left this one-star review, and then will immediately delete again afterwards. Instagram and whatsapp are receiving the same treatment. Zuck thought he could lobby Congress to get TikTok shut down under the fake guise of “national security” because his platforms can’t compete. Especially when his own platforms have been stealing data far beyond any other corporation (Cambridge Analytica anyone)? HA, he thought he could just buy his way back into the spotlight! I and millions of Americans have downloaded Red Note/Red book and are learning Mandarin Chinese and a whole new culture before we EVER go back to fb or any other meta platforms. I and millions of Americans feel safer giving our data straight to the source itself rather ANY other American corporation and especially government entity. Zuck paid all that money to lobby Congress, and not only are we NOT going back to meta platforms, we’re deleting them and giving our data willingly to China anyway. I absolutely love this disappointment for him; and I KNOW he’s feeling it. Enjoy all the L’s you’re going to take in 2025 Marky Mark!.HIAJ1234Version: 489.0.0
Added back delivered status in ios messengerSince the latest messenger update for IOS, on the 15th March 2023 there is no delivered label just after I send a message. When I used to send a message to someone there use to be a transparent tick in a littel circle then once the message had been delivered to that person’s device. The tick would change from a transparent circle to a filled circle with a tick in it still . Since the update on the 15th March 2023 the circles have gone and now it just says a message is sent and when it has been read . But I don’t know if the person who I am messaging if there message has been actually delivered just sent or not because there is no delivered sign anymore . It’s quite a worry especially as if it is something important I am sending to someone I don’t know weather the message has been delivered or not as it only says sent now and then it will only say seen once they open the message but please please can the delivered Status be added back to the IOS messenger ..Nafish NawalVersion: 420.0
One terrible feature that MUST be fixedMessenger has, for perhaps 2+ years, had one extremely bad feature that apparently the entire internet is trying to figure out how to disable.
At the top of the chat list, there is a row that starts with "Create Room", which has suggestions of people to chat with that are online now. This is 100% useless, and disturbing in some cases. It will suggest people you are Facebook friends with from 10 years ago but have no interest in messaging. It will suggest ex's who you don't want to see again, but don't want to unfriend. It will suggest people you interacted with on marketplace during a sale, but have no intention of ever contacting again. In some of these cases, it is weird and jarring to see these peoples faces pop up. How -- HOW?? -- has this incredibly stupid feature not been fixed in 2 years of updates? If they must keep this feature, just give us some way to control who pops up there -- without unfriending them -- please. It's ridiculous that we can't. There are huge Reddit threads asking this same question..Fdarby82Version: 376.0
Staple features removed and NOW breaking bugsHonestly a lot of the features being removed I get. Especially with the app being rebuilt from the ground up.
Within the last day or so going into any conversation *instead of just one from a recent bug report* I will be kicked out back to the conversation selection screen with the animation like I swiped to go back there myself but I didn’t. And even if I’m in the middle of typing it can happen to. On top of whatever was being typed being gone when *trying* to go back to the conversation. Also when it force backs you out some reason all the conversations flash out of existence for a few seconds. I was going to say maybe it was just my phone. I restarted my phone and uninstalled and reinstalled and even cleared app data to no avail. But it also happens on my IPhone SE which is on the latest 13.4.1 update like my 11 Pro max right now. So I pretty much can’t reliably use messenger now on any of my phones and have to go to a laptop. I’m also very confused as to the fact this just started happening today. And not the day of the update 🤔.AlexN.64-BitVersion: 258.0
Harassing Phone Calls Through Messanger AppThis app is very intrusive! There is no way to disable the constant phone calls you guys allow anyone on your friends list to send. I went online to find a way to disable the phone calls coming directly from Messanger and found out you can only disable if you deny access to camera, microphone and phone. This makes no logical sense. In real life people need your permission to call you. You actually have to give someone your number to call you. There are a lot of weirdos using this app. There are many scam artists using this app. Nobody should be receiving calls through this app all day and night. Why isn’t there an option to disable the phone calls?! It makes you want to uninstall this entire app because it’s too intrusive. I have done everything I can do and yet these people keep calling my phone through this app. It’s irritating and shouldn’t be allowed as it’s harassing when someone doesn’t desire people to keep calling them. Fix this expeditiously please and thank you. It’s too much.VonMobVersion: 342.2
New update is total garbageThey have changed a few things on this latest update and it feels like a step backwards in my opinion. First off... when my friends and I share location you can no longer see the their location without having to click on the map, then zooming in a lot farther than you ever should have to. And most of the time that location is not even correct. Secondly you can no longer see if the other person has seen your message without opening conversation (which was very useful). Also the new emojis for reacting to pictures are not good and they need to be changed back to the ones prior to the update. In the previous version you could click on stickers that were sent to you and the pack that it came from would show up and you could use them if you wanted to... now you can still click on them but all it does is show you the pack and you cannot use them. You have to go back to stickers and find that pack to use them. This new update is not at all user friendly and Facebook needs to go back to previous version..Cat1122334321Version: 253.3
Worst Service I Have Ever SeenI have never been more disappointed. I am a big Facebook Marketplace person and sell things all the time but I have had ONE CONSISTENT UNRESOLVED PROBLEM. Messenger will NOT send me notifications when someone messages me through marketplace! If a friend messages me it comes through just fine but if it comes through marketplace there is no notification whatsoever. I have done my own trouble shooting, being a very tech literate person, and have tried multiple devices including my new iPhone Xs. I have checked settings, redownloaded the app, reset my phone, AND REPORTED the PROBLEM to Facebook 3-4 times now with NO RESPONSE whatsoever. I have missed important messages and sales because of this. I have done my own research to find that others ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM with also no response from facebook. I’m a patient person and don’t like leaving bad reviews but I have been dealing with this problem for a LONG time now. At least other places respond to you problems even if they can’t fix them. I am severely disappointed Facebook..Dashcraft11Version: 264.0
Can’t LoginFor the past month, I haven’t been able to log into my account on Messenger. I’ve reported the problem twice through Facebook with no feedback. When I try to login, it says, “Unable to login. Please try again later.” I’ve tried using “Forgot Password,” but it glitches and won’t let me continue. I have tried every login and password combination I have had in the past as well as what the current login should be and can’t get in! When I use Facebook through my Chromebook I can view messages that way, but it’s very inconvenient since my laptop is outdated and barely functions. Nothing looks suspicious, so I don’t believe my account has been compromised. I also can’t view messages through a mobile browser as it just directs me back to the login screen for the app. I need to be able to get in through my phone, but no word back from the Facebook team. I’ve updated regularly, and checked the FAQs which don’t provide any useful info. I hope the Facebook team will look into this, otherwise I’ll have to drop Messenger, which I really don’t want to do..Licialowoke :)Version: 257.0
Why update it to make it worse?Why did you have to update messenger, remove cool feature like popping emojis in chat, add a really cool feature imo: the ability to spam emojis in chat, and then remove the spamming again? Why are you adding features to then later remove them and why did you remove old features? Please bring back the ability to check if someone has seen your message without having to enter in the chat and #bringbackoldmessenger ;(
Update: Now, after a few more updates, it got a lot worse. If I try to send more than 10 pictures at a time, it doesn’t work. Like it straight up doesn’t send the pictures. If I want to look at pictures within a chat, they don’t load unless I wait for like an hour.
You still can’t fast forward within a voice recording and to select a different album than just “recents” when sending photos and videos is a pain and it’s better to do it off of the gallery app.
Also none of these problems are because my phone is slow or because of bad internet, I have an iPhone X with 100mb/s down/up wi-fi..Qwiss-iwnlVersion: 263.2
This app is an absolute jokeWhat a dumpster fire of an app. I’ve always had problems with messenger, but they’ve often been minor and have sometimes been resolved. It’s ridiculous how long it took to get more (but still not all) emojis available as emoji buttons for chats, but they eventually added this inconsequential feature. It would be nice if they expanded the color/theme options, but I can live without that.
Recently, though, things have just gotten worse. The removal of polls in group chats is ridiculous. There’s no reason for such a feature to be taken away. Facebook has been “working to add them back” for months now. Additionally, my main issue with the app is that I’m now completely unable to make new group messages. This has happened once before, and I had to delete and reinstall the app to fix the problem. I should never have to do that, but at least it worked. The problem has resurfaced now, though, and even deleting and reinstalling hasn’t solved the problem. I guess the app is just permanently broken for me? Good on you, Facebook.

Confused UserThis review could change very, very fast if you could tell me why the 24 hr format for messenger won’t change to any other format time , I’ve read up before I’ve come here that it was confusing for some of the fb clients on the directions , on how to use the application, but that’s no reason to inconvenience everyone else, if there is a chat line for them to find out how to understand better and faster, I love the messenger features the way they were but if I can’t change that format ( that was very valuable ( the whole purpose) for the app I thought) I’m going to uninstall, total privacy sometimes about things is everything to some and pushing it for information for people to read up to 24 hrs is unsatisfactory or 24 hrs when you want to say something and just erase it 2-3 totally different instances that really matters—-Kinda disappointed if that’s the case , I can not change the format from 24hrs is what I’m talking about for encryption messages, Thanks, have a beautiful day and rest of your summer 🌺✨🌤️.@TerTanVersion: 470.0.1
Disappointed customerI am a regular shopper at the Water tower Schnucks in Arnold, MO. Usually, the checkers and other staff are great. However, today that was not the case.
I wanted to buy some Minute Maid Zero Mango Punch. It was on the top shelf of a cooler and there was a strip of plastic in front of it. Being 5’ tall, I was unable to get it over the plastic to purchase it. I looked around, but not store person was to be found. I didn’t purchase it.
Then when I went to checkout, the cashier put the groceries in the bags, but did not help me put them in my cart. I am 75 years old and I had several heavy items. I looked around and the other cashiers were helping the customers with their bags, putting them in the carts for them. Lee, my cashier did nothing to help me. As I said before, I have shopped at this Schnucks for years. The other cashiers are wonderful. I shop there because, I do not want to bag and put my groceries in the cart at this point in my life. I was very disappointed today.

Bugs in the systemRight now I am currently not thrilled with the messenger application I use in order to be able to communicate with family and friends due to the fact that I have family all over the entire world and friends as well. The same day that I sent messages out to several my friends and they replied back to me was when I noticed that there was an issue. I tried to send a message back to my friends and family and I could not do so. I got this little red circle on the right side of the message that says couldn’t send. Then I also was able to figure out I was not receiving messages anymore however I could make and receive video calls. Currently at this moment I am able to receive messages but I am still unable to send written messages or emoji‘s and I cannot do a verbal message either. Facebook has been notified two times and I’m still not getting anything done regarding my issue. Dear Facebook I hope you see my comment and get on the ball and do something to fix my account. Have a good day..DelSol2Version: 320.0
New update looks really badMost of the people I’ve seen have just been complaining so I’m going to try and make this review at least a little helpful. This new update has so much wasted space. Just yesterday the formatting was pretty much perfect from a design standpoint, but now there is so much unused white space at the top of the screen. Even just the word “Chats” takes up so much unnecessary space which previously encompassed everything that wasn’t actual chats (like stories and your profile info. The previous design was perfectly fine and there was no need to change it, and changing your design completely won’t make a significant number of people suddenly decide to download the app. If nothing else, give everyone the option to go back to the previous version.
As a lover of web design, I know white space can be useful, but it can be extremely harmful if there is too much unused space, and that is exactly what happened. You messed up with this one, but there’s still an opportunity to fix it, or at least canter to those who know this is bad design..SmarchettiVersion: 200.0
RidiculousMessenger, while marketed as a convenient messaging app, comes with significant drawbacks that can’t be overlooked. One of the most glaring issues is its intrusive privacy policies. The app often requests unnecessary permissions, such as access to your location, contacts, and even your microphone and camera, even when those features are not in use. This level of data collection feels invasive and raises serious concerns about user privacy.
Another negative aspect is the lack of control users have over how their data is used. Facebook, the parent company, has a history of questionable data practices, and Messenger’s integration with the larger platform makes users vulnerable to tracking and targeted advertising. Even private conversations seem to be mined for data, making it difficult to trust the app.
Additionally, the app is plagued with unnecessary features, like games and stories, that detract from its primary purpose: communication. These features not only clutter the interface but also consume more data and battery life than needed. For users who want a simple, secure messaging experience, Messenger often feels like overkill.
Overall, while Messenger might be convenient for some due to its wide adoption, the constant privacy concerns and unnecessary features make it a poor choice for anyone valuing their personal data and a clean user experience. There are far better, privacy-focused alternatives available today. It’s a joke compared to what it once was..SusannSmith13Version: 490.0.0
ReviewWhat I don’t like about Facebook is political judging on your end. You have no problem putting through ways to make a bomb etc., but you have no problem censoring people’s opinions. Mine were always stated professionally and when I had to change my password 15 times because you claimed somebody was trying to get into my account, that’s harassment on your end. I’d be asked if it was me, but you didn’t care how I answered as you made me change my password every time. I am probably better qualified to give an opinion than you… I taught US government as One of my subjects. You’re biased and taking away free thinking. It is your way or else the people are suspended or harassed by your site. Many of the people that I used to interact with, you removed. Stay out of politics and only remove when the person is sharing a physical danger. Right now I can’t even get into Messenger because you want me to update and I just want to read what my cousin has to say to me. Shame on you.SebtempVersion: 454.0.0
Facebook needs to redesign all of its messaging appsI honestly can’t understand how they allow so many bugs and glitches in this app to go on and on forever. For starters, if you accidentally add a theme and emoji to a group chat, everyone gets notified. But then you can’t remove themes. You can only CHANGE to another theme. Who programmed this app? Seriously? Why can’t you remove themes completely? Please explain the reasoning. And hyperlink previews often don’t work. Sometimes they do. But not always, and it seems to be tied to themes. Group chats with themes tend to have this bug. And when you UNSEND a message, they feel the need to alert everyone about it. Why?? So annoying. Sometimes you message the wrong person/group. It happens. It should allow a clean unsend like Instagram messanger. With no trace or alerts. Facebook needs to sit down with Instagram and WhatsApp and go over the BEST and WORST features of each app and make ONE that works across ALL platforms. For example, allow LIKES in WhatsApp. Allow unsend without alerting everyone. Allow hyperlink previews. Alow GIFS to play (Gifs do not play in Instagram, but they do in WhatsApp & FB). This is a typical problem in the modern era. No broad level quality control. It’s whack-a-mole programming and new platform aquisition by everyone.
And the unbelievable ad targeting you get due to bots constantly reading your messages. Wow. No privacy whatsoever.
We need a change.
Otherwise, the app works nicely..XtosmiaVersion: 298.0
One Star – Unnecessary and InvasiveI absolutely did not need one more app to text people on. I already struggle to check my text messages, let alone keep up with Messenger. When I deleted my Facebook account, I made sure to deactivate and delete Messenger completely. I don’t want people continuously trying to reach out to me through yet another app. If someone needs to talk to me, they can call or text my actual phone number—not use Facebook to track me down.
Messenger feels like another creepy tool in Mark Zuckerberg’s empire of unnecessary apps. How many ways does this man need to control our communication? He’s an awful person who clearly doesn’t care about user experience—only about finding more ways to gather our data and sell it. Messenger is invasive, redundant, and honestly just annoying.
If you’re still using Messenger, save yourself the trouble and delete it. It’s not worth the headache, and there are far better ways to communicate with people that don’t involve Zuckerberg’s creepy, data-harvesting empire..T.Nadine.TVersion: 489.0.0
PointlessFacebooks messenger app is a pointless application—everyone already has free text messaging and pays for cell phone service, so why create a new application (for things like virtual yard sale) and ask for permissions to text and call? I find it absolutely absurd that I have to download an app to view messages from a web based platform. (No I DO NOT have the FB app, thank you.). Not only that but the two rarely communicate efficiently. After you check messages in the app, FB profile will still show a messages notification. On top of that every time you use it asks for notifications to be turned on (why? When FB should be notifying you?) and asking for permission for microphone and camera. The app drains battery power when you do have notifications turned on especially in group chats—pinging every time there is a new comment. I’m not sure what a good use for this app is—it should be reintegrated back into Facebook and allow users to check messages from the web based platform..SilverrametteVersion: 148.0
Messenger is trap for the unwary Facebook userFacebook has pathetically inept protections to thwart hackers from abusing messenger to steal and hack Facebook accounts. Even worse, once you report identity theft to Facebook they do little to nothing to help you or correspond with you. They have no customer phone line to help their users who have been victims. Worse, their help section online it’s also useless. It took me a month for me and my friends reporting identity theft and attempted theft via my stolen account. The hacker thief was encouraging my 3800 friends to download a cash app so he could steal their money. All this was reported numerous times to Facebook over 30 days but they did nothing. I was finally able to get my account back after many friends blocked me and thought I was nuts. Facebook makes billions of dollars a month off its users but fails to protect them from identity theft, theft and a ruined reputation despite the fact they know all this wrong doing is taking place.

It shows i’m active when i’m notIt’s so so so annoying that messenger shows i’m active when i’m actually not. Every time just right after my friends send me a message i became active, so when i replied them back late, some of them thought i ignored their messages..it makes me stressed can you please fix this problem? I even deleted and redownloaded this app twice but same problem still occurs.Pabl0picass00Version: 293.0
