Messenger Lite Customer Insights

1. It's clear that Meta does not prioritize the maintenance of this app to the point that core features (clicking a hyperlink!) fluctuate in and out of usability regularly.Better than the full Messenger, but it's missing a lot of things, so it's not a perfect alternative.

2. Phone calls don't support Bluetooth for some reason, pictures will stop loading completely after a while of having the app open, eventually profile pictures will all be blank and won't load properly until restarting the app, etc.

3. I'm not sure when it started but been using this app for years and now I can no longer send or receive links as they always say, "attachment not available".

4. It appears this app may have been removed.Links sent in chat don't open (there is an attachment unavailable error).

5. I understand they wanted it to be cut back, because it is "Lite" for a reason, but I think they went too far in some cases (can't tag friends in group chats, pictures don't load automatically).

6. Now you can't even click on links, you have to copy the link and paste it into your browser!I like the UI in this better than normal Messenger.

7. It's super finicky with media - no video; images are ok but you have to load each one; you can play an audio clip but you sure can't download it.

8. Pretty disappointed with all Facebook apps.Useful. I like that it doesn't have too many features like the traditional Facebook Messenger.

9. At first I thought it was blocked for an unknown reason, but logging into full messenger app on separate device and all is working as expected.

10. Overall, if these features aren't needed this is a very solid messaging app.A lite version of FB Messenger.

11. Video calls are pretty smooth and messages send great.

  • I want the SMS Messenger Lite off my phone. When I attempt to uninstall it - the 'Uninstall' option is greyed out. It continues to pop up when I click on my phone settings, that is like hijacking my phone I want it off. Its also still trying to complete install and make me select it as default SMS app. I have a Samsung Galaxy A71, email me and instruct me how to uninstall Messenger Lite. I continue to use Messenger.
