Facebook is building a messaging app for Instagram
Months after Facebook shut down its standalone Instagram messaging app, it’s back with another.
According to a new report from The Verge, Facebook is currently testing a new app that’s designed “to promote constant, intimate sharing between users and their closest friends.”
Known as “Threads,” the standalone app works in collaboration with Instagram – users can send text, photo, or video messages to friends, as well as live updates on their location, speed, and battery life.
Sources familiar with the matter told The Verge that these real-time services are not yet available but it will say something along the lines of “on the move.”
