Facebook Messenger has come a long way since its inception.
The app - which spawned from the private messaging feature in
Facebook - is one of the most popular instant messaging apps in
the world and has recently been bolstered by the ability to run
its own collection of dedicated apps. To clarify, you can now get
apps for the Facebook Messenger app, and here we'll show you the best
Facebook Messenger apps that you have to try out.

- Next, just tap Install next to the
