So you can add new friends on Facebook Messenger
Codes, username and links On Facebook continue looking for the best formulas to grow, and your own messaging application is not left out of this strategy. As of today, and progresiva, some news will be arriving at the Facebook Messenger serviceto make it easier to add new users and create new friends to chat withSomething that is not only useful so that users do not waste time when connecting to new people, but can also be a point in favor when communicating in companies and services
The news comes from the social network Facebook, through the account of David Marcus , the person in charge of the messaging tool. In his message, Marcus confirms the arrival of three new features to add friends or contacts to Facebook Messenger : The codes, the usernames, and the links Features that promise to make the process much easier.
We begin with the codes, which are quite reminiscent of what was seen on Snapchat, although with 's own signature FacebookAnd now the user's profile tab shows a photo of you surrounded by dots and circles aroundA curious design that breaks with traditional QR codes. In this way, the user can click on the option scan code, which appears next to the rest of the users already added, to activate the camera, point it at the new profile and send an immediate friend request to start chatting Easy and fast, but also Useful for contacting companies and special accounts that publish their Messenger code on social networks or any other place.
Along with this, Facebook Messenger now has a new feature in its users' profiles. And, each one of them now has a dedicated link That is, a web addressthat can be shared so that anyone who clicks on it, accesses a chat with said userIn this way, many problems would be avoided when sharing the link so as not to have to spell names, exchange phone numbers, etc. You just have to share the aforementioned link.
Finally, and closely related to the above, are the usernames And it is that each person with a Facebook account now has of a homonymous link for Facebook Messenger That is, a link with your username with which you are accessible using the previous method. No action is required, just know that if you type m.me/ so-and-so (where so and so is the full name of Facebook of a user), it is possible to start a conversation with him or her.
Apart from this, David Marcus has also echoed a milestone for Facebook Messenger And this messaging service already has 900 million active users per month Something that is quite close to 1,000 million that his cousin sister already has WhatsApp An achievement that comes accompanied by another number: the billion messages that are sent over the course of a month on this service Data that only makes one suspect that Facebook Messenger follows growing and will soon reach the same figure as WhatsApp Of course, in its case, it has the support of users who already have an account on the social networkFacebook
These news have already been launched, but they will arrive progressively, so it could delay several days or even weeks to appear in Spain .
