Social networking aficionados on Facebook will now be able to talk their hearts out with family and friends. That’s because CrispApp has recently unveiled Facebook Messenger, which is a voice chat application aimed at extending Facebook’s communications functionality for iPhone or iPod touch users.
Developed particularly to improve the Facebook chat experience, Facebook Messenger enables users to make VoIP calls and send texts for free to their Facebook friends wherever they may be. The app boasts of an easy-to-use interface with full multi-tasking support.
“Facebook Messenger delivers a new dimension to the traditional Facebook experience, offering users an easy, direct and robust way to communicate while online, wherever they are. And, future updates to the app, including video capabilities, will greatly enhance users’ interactions and social experiences,” shared Mac Goldberg, vice president, CrispApp.
Its various additional features include the ability to send pictures from the iPhone album or camera, view a friend’s wall, browse message history and utilize emoticons. Users can get replies instantly with Apple push notifications and even set up sound notifications from within the app.
The Facebook Messenger app can be downloaded via the Apple iTunes App Store for $2.99.
