It does not support calling, sending photos or sending message reactions.The main Messenger app will continue to exist as Wong predicts that this app will be targetted to a different kind of audience.The screenshots posted by Wong show an apparent white coloured change of the interface of the Facebook app. It is not known when this update to the Facebook app will come to the general public.
