1. Play Games: Facebook messenger has an array of built-in games that you can compete with your friends. Games range from chess to basketball and are sure to keep you entertained for hours.

2. Mute Notifications: If you’re part of a group chat that receives a ton of notifications, you can mute the notifications by tapping on the group chat and tapping on the “i” icon, followed by “Notifications” and then “mute notifications.”

3. Customize Chat Colors: You can personalize your chats by giving them different colors. Open your chat and tap on the people or group chat’s name, followed by “Colors.” From there, you can choose your desired color.

4. Use Chat Bots: Chat bots are automated virtual assistants that can perform tasks such as booking a hotel room or ordering food. You can access chat bots by typing a message to Facebook messenger bot.

5. Play Spotify Songs: If you and a friend are searching for music to listen to, you can now share Spotify songs directly on Facebook messenger.

11. Create Custom Emojis: If you’re a person who loves creating your emojis, you can create custom emojis by taking a photo and drawing on it.

12. Share Live Location: You can share your live location with friends in real-time. Tap on the “+” icon and tap “Live Location.”

13. Secret Conversations: If you’re having a conversation that you don’t want anyone to see, Facebook messenger offers end-to-end encryption on “Secret Conversations.”

14. Play Basketball: Playing basketball on Facebook messenger is one of the platform’s hidden features. Send a basketball emoji and tap on it to start playing.

15. Mute Specific Keywords: If there’s a topic of discussion that you don’t want to follow, but don’t want to leave the group chat, you can mute specific keywords or phrases.

In conclusion, Facebook messenger offers an array of impressive features that you should try. From playing games to editing sent messages, the platform is packed with hidden features that can enhance your messaging experience.

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject.
