    @TXTeslaCowboy I still use Instagram and it has no problem draining battery, but Facebook always did when I used to use it on my iPhone previously. Not terrible, but it definitely was way worse with it installed and using it daily along with FB messenger Way better after deleting it.

    @enjoyGLOBE is your service not centralized? I applied for Plan 599 at SM City Iloilo, but Plan 999 was processed. I already reported this via FB Messenger, yet Iโ€™m still told to visit the store. Very inconvenient and poor service.

    Meanwhile @facebook's help section mentions that this is specifically a risk but not that you or they can do anything about it Other reports say that the link goes directly to a site that looks like settings in FB messenger, so users never know that they've left FB's sites

    @doctorcalf @Michelle_812_ If people think we have privacy in the year of flock cameras, TikTok & Apple having components made in isreal they deserve whatever happens To be fair FB messenger got in trouble in 2010s for access microphones on phones so itโ€™s a known issue / thing.

    @PLDT_Cares @PLDT_Cares Your fb messenger sucks. You make subscribers wait for so long to the point of them losing patience and ending the transaction. You should fix you lines well because everybody is paying right! Best in putol kayo pag nadelay nga ang bayad.

    If FB Messenger isnt working right, do the following: Go to settings->apps->messenger and clear cache and clear data. Then try to reopen it, it'll ask you to login and it'll work.

    I forwarded a voice note in error on FB Messenger yesterday. I went to delete it immediately but it would only โ€˜delete for meโ€™. I quickly checked online in a state of panic and to see if there was any way to stop the recipient seeing the message. I read in one article that it can be deleted within ten minutes of sending but that wasnโ€™t the case for me. Any idea why deletion isnโ€™t possible in such cases?
