Facebook testing video, voice call features on main app, here’s what it means for Messenger users
American social media giant Facebook is now testing features to add voice and video calls back to the main app.
These features, which are currently part of the standalone Messenger app, were originally spun out of the company’s main app in 2011 and officially removed in 2014.
According to The Verge, these two are several of Messenger features that Facebook has introduced in its other products like Oculus virtual reality headsets and Portal video cameras.
Facebook hasn’t shared whether it plans to bring other parts of Messenger back into the fold, but Messenger’s director of product management did tell a news outlet that “you’re going to start to see quite a bit more of this over time.”
