Facebook Messenger App Alternative Android: Things to Know
Facebook Messenger App Alternative Android: Things to Know
When it comes to privacy and security settings, smartphones users have become more and more concerned about their rights and ways to protect themselves from identity theft and theft of the information.
Recently Android users had a hard time accepting that Facebook has finally removed its basic messenger option from the app and now they will have to use another Facebook Messenger app to read and reply to the messages. It's more of a move to force users rather than giving them an option.
Furthermore, several security concerns and permission requests to access phone number, text messages, photos, microphone, and location services have also made users opt for alternative Messenger apps.
Unfortunately, there isn't any application that can fetch data from your Facebook account, which means that you will have to stick to classic messenger choices.
WhatsApp Messenger is probably the best choice here that allows you to connect with people all cross the world without any charges. Although Facebook has recently acquired this company, its operations are totally independent and you do not need to worry about same problems as with Facebook Messenger.
Around 80% of the smartphone users have this app to share pictures, videos, location, contacts and more. It has a very interesting set of emotion icons too.
Although not many people know about it, Skype also serves as an amazing messenger application far better than others around. Microsoft has worked upon this app and made it better than ever.
A great user interface combined with smart messaging services making it a great application for both Android and iOS platforms. You can even create groups and send files through it.
More importantly, it is also great for making voice calls every now and then. If you'd like to make call to mobile phones, simple recharges will help with that too internationally.
Finally, there are choices like eBuddy, Viber, Kik, and Touch that also offer free messaging services over the internet. Although these are not so popular like WhatsApp and Skype, you can give them a try for a bunch of other benefits including stickers, fun icons, and more. Some of them are also good to make calls.
