Το Facebook μόλις ανακοίνωσε ότι θα διαθέσει δύο νέα χαρακτηριστικά στην εφαρμογή του Messenger για Android και iOS. Τα χαρακτηριστικά αυτά έχουν ήδη αρχίσει να εμφανίζονται σε users Messenger from around the world.
Facebook's reactions to Messenger will allow users να εκφραστούν με ένα διασκεδαστικό τρόπο, επιλέγοντας από μια σειρά emojis. Το “νέο” χαρακτηριστικό είναι παρόμοιο με αυτί που υπάρχει ήδη στις publications of Facebook. 
With these emojis you will be able to choose a reaction that to express love, a smile, surprise, sadness, anger, approval or disapproval. Among the emojis, Facebook added the thumb of disapproval to Messenger, but it is not available for News Feed posts.
Facebook also added the ability for Messenger users to see how many people are reacting to one message and be informed of the reactions of each member of a group. Additionally, a small animation will appear inside the conversation whenever someone reacts to a message.
Facebook with the new update will be able to send notifications even when Messenger is not open. Reactions will be available in group discussions as well as in one-on-one conversations in messages between friends.
Facebook also introduced the reports, or as we know them from Twitter, the Mentions. The feature comes as a way of notifying users that their name is mentioned in a conversation. You just have to (like Twitter) enter it symbol @ followed by the person's name.
