It's much better than the original messenger app! It's clean and simple. It's perfect for those who want the bare bones experience. My only complaint is that the notification setting for vibration doesn't work. I've tried to turn off vibrations but they still persist. If that could be fixed, the app would be worth of 5 stars

2 things 1. Does the app have the mention feature? I'm using Samsung Galaxy Tab3.0. Please let me know. 2. We have access to stickers- but not emojis? We use it frequently than stickers. Please add the feat, too. Otherwise, it's great and smooth so far

The app looks great and keeps getting better with the new updates. However, there are two problems that bothers me. The first is the fact that I can see the Facebook Messenger emojis in the conversations, but I can not post the emojis since they are not available in Lite. It would be easier if you added the option to send emojis to the app. The second problem about profile photos. When I change the profile photo on Facebook, the same does not happen with the profile photo in Messenger Lite. You need to improve this Messenger Lite interaction with Facebook and Facebook Lite apps.

Completely backwards... Stickers? In the "lite" version? Zero integration with the actual Facebook app, how'd you leave that one out? Does anyone else remember when you actually used the Facebook app to use Facebook messenger?... But hey, you can sync your contacts which will give you one more reason to open up Facebook and gorge yourself in misleading sponsored content! On the plus side, it sends messages.

I wanted to stop using Facebook because of how bloated the other app was. this fixed all that. needs to allow GIF support from GBoard. even a light texting app or SMS app supports this.

It is easy to use, no more arte. Though i just got used to this now.. I don't need to refresh... No chat heads so there's no lag. 😊

It's fast and works well! However, you don't have access to the Facebook Messenger emojis, only the stickers (which, let's be honest, I never use) It'd be nice to have them since your stock emojis end up being converted after being sent anyway, so it'd be good to know what they'd look like beforehand! That's the only downside for me!
What a buggy app! Often force closing, sometimes even while I'm writing a message. You also can't click on links or photos, nothing happens, which makes it unusable. I like the idea of a bloated free messenger, though, just wish it would work...
The only problem is it shows that I'm online even if I'm not. Please fix it :( all in all, its a good app. Hope it'll have a smoother look someday. Keep it up!
After the new update I don't even get a notification wen I get a message nd wen I end up getting told from one of my friends have sent me a message I end up showing them that I don't have any messages from them. So please fix this
Once you sort the problem where you try to open messages through browser Facebook to this app it will get a fifth star! P.s you still haven't sorted the problem in the last update!
Why Facebook Lite is a no for me: - No search function for chats That's all it needs, if I can't find the group chats in the contacts than I need someway to find them. Otherwise, I like the simpleness of the app.
Awesome idea but I really miss the emoji palette. You can remove stickers, most people use mostly emoji!! Please! You're not reading reviews, are you? :-/
Practical for everyone who doesn't beetle the extra features in the original messenger app. I'd like if there's an option to send short videos though
Messages are loaded faster and runs smoothly BUT sending photos/images takes forever. Please fix. My network connections are at optimal but images still wont go through.
I would have loved this but it seems it is completely unusable if you have a deactivated account. I guess I'll have to stick with Messenger Heavy
Works well and does exactly what it says on the tin. Could do with event planning being added as a button or something, but other than that, it's great.
Very amazing! I can use this with data connection to chat with my family and friends,Thanks for doing this app!
Videos can't be played,keep saying 'Gallery has stopped working' Please fix it,thanks :)
Very good app..better than the primary app..uses less memory and works faster.. please just add emojis
It keeps on saying. Unexpected error while logging, please try again
Esta super buena la app pero solo deberían agregar los enojos o las burbujas de chatear una de las dos sería bueno
Some links that I receive cannot be opened. Besides this, 5 star application
It's nice to see Facebook reevaluating their priorities for data and battery conscious users
No lag, faster than messenger but you can't view pictures on this
So far so good. Except there is no video call feature. Hopefully, video call will be implemented soon.
Like it other than no chat heads or facetime simplified other wise good
I like my privacy and I was worried about the other messenger letting people know what I was talking to different people
Great app the most attractive thing is that it installed in a chiffy...
You can't turn off notations forever, only up to 24 hours
Msg delivery is nor confirmed like in the original messenger double ticket facility p
good app but few problems who his inactive show as group no stickers available
