Facebook Messenger is a popular service that allows users to message anyone with a Facebook account. You can use the function from within Facebook or separately within the Messenger app.

Facebook Messenger is great for group chats. Unlike group texts, you can assign admins, add or remove other users, and quickly locate shared media or files. This article will teach you everything you need to know about sending Facebook messages to a group of friends.

Things to Know

Before you begin sending Facebook messages, you should know a few things. If you’re already familiar with how to send messages, skip ahead. But, for those of you who are new to the platform, this section is for you.

To start, there are several ways to access Facebook Messenger:

You can download the Messenger app on your mobile device or use the website on your computer or phone.

Next, you must send friend requests to anyone you want in your Facebook Messenger group. You wish to friend other users you’d like to message because if you aren’t friends, your messages will go into their Message Request folder, and they may not see it.

Finally, when you’ve figured out which Messenger platform you want to use and compiled your Facebook friends, it’s time to start messaging!
