Facebook supports 360 - degree photos and HD video within Messenger

The two new features come in today as Messenger multiplied by Facebook efforts to make Messenger the default messaging app for everyone.

Facebook is well aware that the camera and multimedia are the main pillars of self-expression and emotion in the era of smart phones and mobile devices, so in recent years has sought to strengthen the capabilities of its services in this area.


Today, the company announced the launch of two new features of the Messenger application, namely, allowing users to share 360-degree images and the ability to share HD video.

The 360-degree 360-degree 360-degree 360-degree 360-degree 360-degree 360-degree 360-megapixel 360-degree 360-degree feature was first introduced in 2016 to allow users to experience immersive multimedia, one of the most powerful technologies of the day, virtual reality.

With today's announcement, the Messenger app, which has more than 1.3 active users per month, allows users to share 360-degree images, but the user has to capture those images with other apps, not the in-app camera functionality.

Facebook also said that Messenger users can now share 720p video, a feature that was only available through the main Facebook application. Through Messenger, the feature will initially be available in a number of countries, most notably the United States and the United Kingdom, and no one in the Middle East.

The launch of the new features today comes at a time when Facebook has doubled its efforts to make Messenger the default messaging app for everyone. In February, the company introduced a new feature that allows you to convert voice and video calls from individual to collective, and last month launched a feature that allows group managers to explore new members in group chats before they can join, as well as another feature that enables users to create "Shareable link".
