Just wanted to say awesome work, been using it daily, whenever I leave work I share my location so my wife can track me (in case of an accident). There is some stupid shit (like I'm never going to use it to send money, please stop assuming I want to), but otherwise it really is a great piece of work. UX is fantastic, never crashes, doesn't suck up a lot of performance though still have to delete conversations every 6months or so. Anyways that's all! Just wanted to say thanks!
Yep agree one of the nicest things said. OP, do you use android or iOS. If you use iOS why not use find friends app by Apple which shares the location indefinitely.
SMS integration on Android is great. Also voice and video calling are so much better than Hangouts, Skype, etc. Props to the RTC team in Seattle.
Just curious, do you like voice and video chat better on Messenger or on Whatsapp?
There's video chat on WhatsApp now? I thought voice chat on WhatsApp was good but I generally only use WhatsApp to talk with a smaller group of international friends.
Whrre in FB messenger can you share location through the day
Sending payments is actually pretty sweet...near instant send/receive from your bank acct. way better than Venmo
This. I secretly prefer FB payments, but my friends don't trust "Zuckerberg" with their credit card. Like somehow he's gonna save it and use *your* card despite the fact he has billions?
Same same same! It's so much nicer than Venmo because there's no separate balance. I actually got hooked on Messenger Pay before I was an employee π
Thankies!
I want to say you are sucking up...but damn you are right, was in Singapore for 3 weeks and it was more reliable then Suzie at the bar...
It's my favorite love-hate relationship. God damn it Snowden warned about this... musst reeesisssittttt oh hey I got a new high score in the basketball mini-game.
Just use literally any other messenger? It's not hard.
Google Maps has that feature to share location with your friends and family members. It's pretty cool.
My parents use it to stalk my location..... I'm in my mid-twenties.
@999 LOL
Have always loved the product but I sure wish they'd stop pushing stories or "day" so fucking hard. Just stop.
Messenger stories also seem different than Facebook stories. I don't get that part at all tbh, and the gesture to open it is really aggravating with a slow camera. Just keep it in Instagram, it's where a lot of us expect it more.
I've used the day stories a few times. But the feature is very limited, like being able to edit or add to it easily, no photo editor built into that part, etc.
I hate that I can't open FB messages in my phone's browser, it forces me to install the messenger app. WTF is up with that? It opens fine in a laptop's browser. I ain't installing any apps on my phone. Make it work in browser please.
Lolwut?
@hcndjs on mobile you used to be able to use chat on mobile web. Now it prompts you to install FB messenger
Wow, this is hands down the nicest thing I've seen on Blind. Here's a thank you cookie for making this a less shitty place. πͺ
How does that cookie taste?
That cookie is stale
