Facebook Messenger allows worldwide users to sign up without an account

And now David Marcus from the Messenger team announced that the separation between the messaging platform and social network has expanded globally.

Even though the new ability to sign up with a phone number is now available to the global Facebook Messenger audience, there is still room for those who want to sign up using their Facebook account.

This standalone Messenger app will also compete against the Facebook owned WhatsApp Messenger, which now has more than 800 million active users around the world.

Facebook nonetheless suggests the customers to sign up with their social account as this enables them to proceed a dialog throughout numerous units. There are many people who do not want to use the Facebook but use the messenger then this is the best way.

Facebook is expanding more features for its users, as the company is now experimenting with a “watch later” button on video, which allows someone to save their spot and resume later when watching video. Users just tap on the dollar icon below the conversation and type the amount of money they wish to send in order to make the mobile payment transaction.

When a new Messenger user first opens the app, they will have the option to select either “Login with Facebook” or “Not on Facebook”.
