How To Log Out Of Facebook Messenger On Android

Many of you must be aware of Facebook Messenger, the official Facebook app that allows you to have text conversations with all your friends on the popular social network. In fact, with the help of this app you can send and receive text messages in conversations which you can later continue on your computer.

The messenger lets you share images, your location, in the text messages; you can even add several recipients and open chat windows with several people at the same time. Each conversation is then kept in a bubble which you can conveniently move around on your device’s screen.

You can also configure Facebook Messenger to receive sound and vibrating alerts every time you receive a message, and even respond via normal text message (phone to phone) if the person you want to talk to doesn’t have Facebook. (or isn’t logged on to it). Moreover, you can also make VOIP voice calls from within the application itself. (Also read: Google Plans To Unify The World’s Wi-Fi Hotspots)
