Social networking giant
Facebook is planning to launch a new feature for its Messenger app that allows
users to place free voice calls to friends. The feature is so far available
only to iPhone users in Canada. The feature to be introduced by Facebook will
help users to make free internet voice calls, known as VoIP calls, to any
friend on the social network. According to the Daily Mail, the new feature
comes at the same time as Facebook Messenger rolled out a new feature worldwide
that allows users to record and send voicemail-type message to friends. Working
in a similar way to video messaging in the company’s Poke app, users press and
hold a red record button, speak their message, and it appears in line as part
of the conversation. According to TechCrunch writer Josh Constine, there is a
wide range of uses for the function, including messaging while driving to
recording the waves lapping at a beach to send to friends. However, its
addition to the Messenger app seems merely to make it an ‘even more complete
app’ he said, adding that he expects video messaging to soon be added as well.
