Apart from this, you can also use it for making group calls. Without logging into Facebook messenger, you will not be able to chat with people through your phone.

Earlier, Facebook Messenger was only available for mobile users but was later made available to computer or laptop users as well. However, if you are using Facebook on desktop, you don’t need to install the messenger separately, just click on the icon on the top right corner of the screen and the messenger will open.
