Facebook Messenger for iOS Gets Video Messaging Feature

One of the most progressive social networking sites Facebook has been bringing a lot of new features to its social platform and its peripheral apps like messaging apps. Today adding more features to its independent Facebook messaging app, the company has rolled out instant video messaging option that enable users to send 15-second videos within the app.

But sadly, the app is only available for the iOS devices at the moment. But worry not Android users, it will soon launch for Android users.

Users will have to tap and hold in order to send videos similar to Snapchat and Vine. Before this, the Facebook messenger only had an option to send in-app pictures and pre-recorded videos stored in the iOS Camera Roll. The update also includes the ability to tap and hold the "thumbs up" button to send a bigger "like."

Back in April, Facebook Messenger for iOS and Android received better photo sharing from within the app itself. It also got free voice calling on both of these platforms in March.

Facebook has updated its popular Facebook Messenger app with 15-second videos and "big likes", adding more ways for users to interact with their friends.
