As Android Police notes, there are now just 14 apps that have hit the 5 billion download milestone, with Facebook Messenger joining mainly first-party Google apps like YouTube, Maps, Gmail, and even the main Facebook app. This has likely bolstered the download figure but to hit this milestone just indicates how integral Facebook has become to many across the globe. In recent years there has been an active push to move people to download the dedicated Facebook Messenger app on their mobiles rather than use the standalone Facebook app. Granted you’ll still need to have had one to use the app in this way, and that does still mean that your personal information is still held with Facebook. One of the biggest benefits to Facebook Messenger is that you can still use the app with a deactivated Facebook account. No matter your thoughts of Facebook as a company, Messenger is a very good cross-platform messaging application that is a must download if you do still use the social network. The social media giant has several popular Android apps, but it’s hard to deny that Messenger is among the very best from Facebook.
