Facebook’s Messenger will soon reunite with the app almost nine years after being removed from the app. Meta has announced that it is conducting a test that adds Messenger back into the Facebook app.
“We are testing the ability for people to access their Messenger inbox within the Facebook app, and you will see us expand this testing soon,” Meta said in a blog post.
According to The Verge report, Meta has been planning to bring Messenger back into Facebook since June 2022. In December 2022, social media analyst Matt Navarra also spotted the company testing the feature.
