I am told I have messages, I know I don't but face book needs me to download to prove I don't have messages. Control is fine, bullying with zero substance is alienating.

Meta is really the worst company

Meta is really the worst company. Your consumers are not there to be exploited by you. Suspending honest people's account is disgusting. Also there is no security in using any app by Meta. They repeatedly sell our data and lie about end to end encryption. WhatsApp and Facebook are the top unsafe options for communication. Time for Meta to learn a lesson.

Absolute useless garbage

Absolute useless garbage. I needed to find some information from a chat with a friend, and I tried to use the search in chat. It found nothing, and I decided to look for it manually. Then, after 2 minutes scrolling like crazy, I found the needed information. This garbage app is useless, buggy, not functional, ugly, and I don't recommend it for any use. Actually the facebook is a absolute useless, ugly crap full with trash. The only think they do is to show different promotion on different kind of craps. Nothing more. Another commercial crap.

They do not care about user safety

They do not care about user safety. Hope you don
t piss off an ex because you cant delete what you've sent to them. You'd have to manually remove every message. Oh and if they block you or you block them? Then you cant delete your messages for them at all, just you. Delete your account? They get to keep everything still. Worst site ever, the people behind this are callous and gross

Microphone quality is so bad

Well the texting is nice, but the microphone quality that the messenger puts is sooooo disguisting. even sometimes when someone sents me a message and I read it. After a while it gives me notification that he sent me the same message, well, nothing new came.

One word for Messenger: rubbish

I would give minus 10 stars if I could.
Ever since Meta took it over and started this end-to-end encryption half of my messages (both sent and received) disappear. I created a pin which - of course - didn't solve the problem. Sent several complaints to Meta without getting any response from them.

End to end encryption sucks

End to end encryption of chats is the worst idea since peanut butter and bacon. I can't read messages from family for reference. They are not state secrets. Sell to the Russians if you must, but let me read them too!!

Messenger always reports and doesn’t…

Messenger always reports and doesn’t let to send our literally normal and basic voice messages. I would understand if we were cursing or whatever, but now messenger just does out of nowhere. It gets on my nerve and I can’t take it anymore!!

Well it was a great little App.. but

Well it was a great little App - but the latest versions are clunky at its best. It seems to be like a webpage now and does not work as well as before in terms of useability - Go back to the previous versions please.

The "change password" feature is terrible.

The "change password" feature is important to add on anything that lets you log in an account. However, Messenger fails to implement this by allowing one flaw in their design: you have to put the current password (which, I'm assuming, you've forgotten) to make the whole thing work. The point of this is supposedly to change your password when you've forgotten it!

It's a rubbish and confusing interface…

It's a rubbish and confusing interface and open to hacking with zero customer service, as ever! They think they can police their platforms with AI...dream on. Try taking down all the racists, misogynist and homophobic content before you start singing your own praises, as ever!

Facebook Messenger Sucks

I sent a payment via Facebook Messenger and twice it said the payment was not sent after spinning forever. The payment was confirmed and a receipt was generated on the third try. When I logged into my PayPal account, it showed three charges! I'm never using this method again as Facebook and PayPal will not help because messenger payments are considered "friends and family", although this was a refund for a Marketplace shipping overcharge.
