Comment on Facebook to remove messaging from core app

Comments

About two years ago, I changed the password on my FB account and stashed it somewhere. I deleted most of my photos and things that appear on my timeline. There were just enough folks I know, that I keep it around ... but I don't use it to communicate on a day-by-day basis.

I certainly don't want it on my phone.

But you know, if there's a separate Messenger app, I'd probably install it. Something that allows people on FB to contact me if they need to ask something, without sucking me into the Feed.

This app already exists, previously the Facebook app handled both, they're just deprecating the messaging functionality from the main app.
