When someone asked me for my Instagram 4 years ago and said ‘I will message you on Instagram’ I was bemused. Messaging on Instaram? Why?!
But apparently, it’s a thing.
So Facebook started doing what most of its users have been waiting for: integrating its messaging apps across the platforms (Whatsapp, Instagram and Messenger).
And while the users are surely happy about being able to send messages, videos and photos cross-platform – the Federal Trade Commission is looking at whether the behemoth has not broken even more anti-trust laws by merging its large communication apps…
Anyway! Since law is not what we’re concerned about – let’s look at the joint functionality of the MessenGram/ InstaGer 😉 :
- the ability to message Facebook users from IG and Instagram users from Messanger;
- Â group video watch sessions
- selfie stickers
- disappearing messages
What do you think of the latest change? Let us know in the comments 🙂
