Features & Capabilities

Messenger is a free messaging app that helps you connect with friends and family, anywhere. It combines group video calls, voice calls, text messaging, and more, so you can stay in touch, explore your interests with people like you, build your community, and share your vibe beyond words, all in one app.

Beyond chat, Messenger brings AI-powered help with Meta AI, high-resolution photo sharing, shared albums, and the ability to send large files up to 100MB. It supports QR codes for easy connections, editing and unsending messages, disappearing messages, and end-to-end encrypted chats. You can join communities, follow broadcast channels from creators, create Stories that disappear after 24 hours, use animated stickers, GIFs, and reactions, and customize chats with themes—reflecting your vibe. Meta AI is available in select languages and countries, with more coming soon.

Overall, users praise Messenger for reliable video/voice calls and easy, fast messaging that keeps family and friends connected, including support for larger file transfers to non‑iPhone users.

Easy, fast, and ad-free messaging experience
Helps you stay connected with family and friends
Supports sending larger files to non-iPhone users and reliable calling
Seamless WiFi calling and overall reliable communication

Cons

Marketplace chat changes require using Facebook app to chat with buyers
Requests for improved privacy controls, such as an option to share an address separately and delete it without deleting the whole conversation

At least once a day while using the app, it gets stuck or hung up on one single message. I cannot hit the back button. I can’t hear the name for the profile. I can’t do nothing. I have to close the app and reopen it for Messenger to work and it’s only started doing this since I got the iPhone 17 Pro Max so I know the phone because it worked fine on my other phone.
