Voice and video calls are being added to the main app of Facebook. Facebook has confirmed that the test is being conducted in several countries around the world, including the United States. However, it is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. This is not the first time that Facebook has made such an attempt. In 2019, the company also conducted a test to bring the text chat service back to the main app with dedicated inbox.
Voice and video call features are now part of Facebook's standalone Messenger. Facebook is testing to add voice and video calls to its main app. These features are now part of Facebook's standalone Messenger app.
According to Bloomberg, the authorities of the world's largest social media site have not made it clear whether there are any plans to bring Messenger's other features back to the original Facebook app.
Note that the process of removing voice and video call services from Facebook's main app began in 2011 and was completed in 2014.
The popular social networking platform has already started experimenting with the voice and video calling features in the Facebook app. In the meantime, some experimental users have come under this facility.
According to a Reuters report, Facebook plans to add WhatsApp services to the main app in the future. Messenger was originally associated with the main app until the start of the Facebook journey until 2014. After that, Facebook separated the service only to provide the facility of using Messenger. For the last 6 years, users have had to download two apps for browsing Facebook and sending messages or making calls.
Even though the call and video service came in the main app, the service is still running in Messenger as it is now. Some users in the United States are already using the trial service. A Facebook spokesperson said in a post that Messenger will go with a similar service for a full messaging, audio and video call experience. The company is trying to launch a cross-messaging service to facilitate internal communication between Facebook-owned apps. Last September, the company launched a direct messaging service between Instagram and Messenger. This allows Instagram and Messenger users to communicate with each other. There is no need to be on the same platform at the same time.
This month, Facebook introduced end-to-end encryption to secure Messenger's voice and video calls, like WhatsApp. As a result, from now on, it will be difficult for a third party to intercept Messenger's voice and video calls. With the launch of the facility, Facebook will not be able to listen to the user's voice and video calls.
