Available for both Mac and Microsoft Facebook Messenger’s new application for the desktop took place in Microsoft Store and Mac App Store. Also, just like mobile and web versions, Messenger, which allows sending messages and video calls, brings dark mode with it. It also supports GIFs and notifications while syncing across devices. Facebook has been working on a standalone desktop application for Messenger since 2016. The technology giant, which launched another desktop application called Workplace in late 2017, had not announced the Messenger application for desktop until last year. Nowadays when the social distance rule is applied, such video chat applications have become vital tools to communicate with our environment. Recently, the use of video chat applications has increased even more when many of us are working from home due to the Covid-19 outbreak. However, privacy and security issues have also come to the fore. One of the applications that is currently on the agenda with these problems is Zoom. We will see in time whether Facebook Messenger for desktop can replace Zoom, which is banned by some countries due to security concerns as well as the number of users reaching millions. If you want to reach Messenger for desktop, you can access the application in Microsoft store or Mac App Store according to your operating system.
