FACEBOOK MESSENGER ADDED QUOTED REPLIES

Image
Facebook Messenger just recently added a vital missing feature – quoted replies. Just like it is in WhatsApp, this allows you to reply to a specific message in a conversation, and is incredibly helpful when you’re engaged in chats that have a big range of topics. Using the new feature, the people you’re talking to will now know exactly what you were replying to. This has been a feature in WhatsApp, which is also owned by Facebook, for a very long time, and it’s always been sort of a baffling omission in Messenger. So it’s good to finally see it there too. In order to quote a specific message, long tap on it and you’ll see a new Reply button to the right of the reaction emojis. Tap that, write your reply, and, just like in WhatsApp, the message you’re replying to will appear above your reply. The feature is rolling out now on both iOS and Android.

Google chief executive Sundar Pichai explained to the tech novices how the algorithms consider some factors like relevance, popularity.
