Facebook Messenger lands on Windows Phone
Windows Phone is a mobile platform with a very well organized structure, in which all the content is always at hand and with a clear and concise design. In addition to its ease of use, the system is extremely fluid even on the most basic devices from each manufacturer. With the Microsoft mobile system it is not necessary that we have a smartphone with a great processor, since it always works smoothly and fluidly.However, despite all its advantages, Windows Phone still has one important drawback: the absence of certain applications Android and iOS have the wider app ecosystems, but Windows Phone came later and therefore its app store lags far behind the two giants of telephony. However little by little this problem is improving and the growth of the MarketPlace does not stop. Today the company has launched the version of Facebook Messenger for all terminals with Windows Phone 8.
Facebook Messenger is an application known for its versions for Android and iOS, but Windows Phone users could not have it on their terminals until now. Finally Facebook supports this platform, but it comes two years later than the other two editions.As expected, Facebook Messenger for Windows Phone is free and also takes up very little space (it weighs only 4 Mb in total). The downside is that will only work with terminals that have the Windows Phone 8 version, the first Nokia, such as the Lumia 800, and other models will remain untested this handy application.
Logically Facebook Messenger is for users who have a Facebook account, and what it does is separate the chat or messages section in another application.Its operation is very similar to that of Whatsapp, where we have a list of contacts with whom we can have text conversations, but in this case it will only show us the contacts that we have added on Facebook. If we use the chat of this social network often, we will notice that the Facebook Messenger system is much more comfortable,since it allows us to talk without having to open Facebook, in addition to the fact that its interface is exclusively adapted to messaging.The design is also adapted to the well-known Windows Phone Metro interface, which is characterized by the use of flat colors with icons and very simple fonts.
Facebook Messenger allows us to send text or photo messages privately, in addition to the already classic emoticons and stickers It also allows you to create group conversations and notifies us when a contact has read a message. In the settings menu we can disable notifications for a while if we don't want them to bother us, for example in a meeting or when we go to bed at night. Although it's been a long time coming, the Facebook Messenger version for Windows Phone offers the same features than the edition for other platforms.
