Want to show your avatar to your friends? No need to go through Instagram, Snapchat and consort. Now it will be possible with Facebook Messenger.
Facebook has offered three billion Evan Spiegel Snapchat. Wasted, negotiations have failed miserably and young startup has preferred to maintain its independence.
The social networking giant has obviously not said its last word and it should soon unveil a new set to the same segment. Mobile application Slingshot , not the name. This name should not be unknown to you, however, and it is rather logical since it is found for a few hours on the AppStore earlier this week at the sight of all.
Anyway, Facebook has obviously not put all your eggs in one basket. It actually has deployed a new version of its Messenger on iOS. The sixth, to be quite accurate.
If it brings a number of fixes to improve stability, it also benefits from a very interesting novelty.
Now it will be possible to use Facebook Messenger to send short videos, not exceeding 15 seconds. Exactly as Instagram, in fact. Note in passing that the sending of longer videos from the film is still valid.
Oh and there is another cherry on the cake: if you keep your finger on the "Like" button, then it will increase the size gradually , until the outbreak. It thus simply release the finger at the right time to send a huge thumb to his friends.
And finally, it should be clear that this feature is not currently available on the iOS version of the application. In other words, we will have to wait a little longer before you can enjoy it on Android and other mobile platforms in the market.
