Messaging from the social network Facebook continues to increase your possibilities. And it's not that this company has once again taken out the checkbook to acquire another application, but that it continues betting on its own That is why Facebook Messenger for iOS has received an important update. Thus, users of the tablets of Apple now have a design created specifically for them .A good way to attract the public of the tablets with a messaging application that is no longer just a mere adaptation of the version foriPhone
Thus, with the update that raises the number of version of Facebook Messenger to number 7.0, a new version for iPad within the same application. An adaptation that does without the simple lengthening of its lines to adapt to the larger screen of this device, and thus presents a comfortable design designed for this tablet. Of course, this version has some deficiencies regarding it for iPhone Something to be expected fix with next updates.
So, users who install Facebook Messenger on their iOS tablets will notice a new design.Of course, respecting the lines of style well marked by Facebook for its own messaging application. The white color is predominant, and the simplicity of the lines, the round photos and minimalism are still well present. However, the goodness of having a larger screen offers having the conversations or chats and the contacts menu directly on the same screen All at once, without having to dig through different tabs and access conversations and go back to switch chats.
On Facebook Messenger to iPad, the left side of the screen is reserved for menĂºs Thus, as if it were an iPhone screen, it collects vertically the list of recent conversations, contacts or even the settings menu The good thing is that, just by clicking on the desired option the rest of the screen shows it in a large size With this, the conversations are really comfortable to carry out. The same thing happens to attach the charismatic stickers or large emoticons, which appear in a new drop-down tab to display entire collections to select the one you want more comfortably. In addition, it has the free call service over the Internet
However, this version of Facebook Messenger also has its shortcomings. These are the latest features seen for iPhone and Android in terms of videos and photos. Specifically when sharing this content. Thus, the possibility of sending a photo from the application itself is missing, seeing on the screen what is going to be photographed. Or the option to hold the shutter button down in this function to share a video instead of a static image.
In short, an interesting update for users who want to enjoy conversations more comfortably thanks to the iPad screen. A tool that already has 200 million users but that still does not provide economic benefits to Facebook, although it could change after the signing from PayPal President David Marcus, for input on how to monetize the app. In any case, version 7.0 of Facebook Messenger is now fully availablefree via App Store
