The social network has officially confirmed the complete separation of application and mobile instant messaging service Facebook Messenger. So far, Messenger was integrated as a section over the main application.
Although existed independently of the Messenger app, it was still possible to access the chat from the main application. Now it is no longer an option.
In a question-and-answer line open to the public in which he participated Mark Zuckerberg, CEO and co-founder of the company, explained why he carried out this measure so unpopular.
He mentioned that they have made this decision so that each application can focus on a different task: one function as social network and the other as a messaging application.
“Messaging is one of the few things that people use more social networks. Forcing people to install a new application was painful in the short term, but if we wanted to offer a good service we had to take this decision,” said Facebook co-founder.
Thus, in order to receive and send private messages to your contacts and Facebook friends Please install the specific application designed for social networking. If not, the user can only interact through comments in the public wall.
In this sense, the co-founder of Facebook said why not give the user option and is forced to install the IM app to send private messages. “If it was not widespread service would be slower and worse for the whole community of the social network.”
Also, curiously, in the Q & A one of the users asked Zuckerberg why he always wears the same shirt in public-shirt and gray to appear before the media. In response, said he has several identical shirts and it does not “psychological energy spent” every morning making decisions regarding clothing to be made so you can “focus on serving the community.”
