Plenty of New Features for Facebook Messenger in 2023

 

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, added Plenty of New Features for Facebook Messenger in 2023. Mark Zuckerberg announced on January 23, 2023, about some features that Facebook Messenger will be updated with in the coming months, including chat themes, end to end encryption, etc. Let's see below what’s coming to Facebook Messenger.

Group Calls & Chats are End-to-end Encrypted now on Messenger:

Facebook announced last year that the company is testing end-to-end encryption for group chats, including voice and video calls. This feature is now available to everyone. You can now choose to communicate with your friends and family in a private and secure manner.

Screenshot notifications:

Last year, Facebook updated the settings for disappearing messages in end-to-end encrypted chats, and now the company is introducing a new notification in Facebook Messenger in 2023 when it detects that someone screenshots a disappearing message. While working on user privacy now, you will be notified if anyone takes screenshots of your disappearing messages. This is the same feature that Facebook offers in Messenger’s vanish mode, and now the company is rolling out this notification over the next few weeks for disappearing messages in end-to-end encrypted chats.

GIFs and Stickers:

GIFs and stickers are now available for a more feature-rich chat experience in end-to-end encrypted chats to help you level up your chats and express yourself.

Reactions:

With reactions, you will be able to tap and hold on a message to bring up the reactions tray to make your choice of reaction: ❤️😆😮😢😠👍 You can also double tap a message to "heart" it.

Message forward:

With this new feature in Facebook Messenger in 2023, you can send messages to your friends and family! Long-pressing on a message will give you the option to forward it. When you tap the 'forward' button, a share sheet will appear, allowing you to share with one or more people or groups. Before forwarding a message, you'll also be able to create a new group.

Verified Badge:

In order to help you identify authentic accounts and have meaningful interactions, Facebook is also making the "verified" badge available for end-to-end encrypted chats.

Save Media:

You’ll be able to save a video or image by long-pressing on any media you receive in the messenger.

Video edits:

When sending a photo or video from your gallery, you'll be able to edit it before sending it, allowing you to add your own personal touch. This includes sticker placement, scribbling or adding text, cropping, and audio editing (for videos).

Chat themes:

The company has added chat themes to help personalize and enhance users' conversations in end-to-end encrypted chats. No more plain backgrounds for your chats. End-to-end encrypted chats can now have themes, including static color and gradient themes.

Group profile photos:

should help you organize your group chats even better than before. For example, if you have multiple group chats with similar names, group profile photos will now make it easier to distinguish between them.

Link previews:

Facebook has rebuilt link previews for end-to-end encrypted chats so that you can see where a link is taking you, before clicking on it. Well, I think this is a very cool feature, as we are already using it in WhatsApp.

Active Status:

Just like WhatsApp and Instagram, it will let you see if someone is currently using the app or when they were last active. For your privacy, you can disable this feature.

Bubbles on Android:

On Android, Bubbles allows you to keep a small shortcut to your Messenger chats while using other apps.. Wherever you go, a circle with your friend's profile picture will float on your screen, allowing you to read and respond to that chat.

Meta promises that, in addition to all of their new features, users will notice an additional layer of security on their chats over the next few months.
