How to Hide and Unhide Messages on Messenger
According to Wikipedia, Facebook (Meta) Messenger is an American messaging app and platform developed by Facebook, Inc. It was originally developed as Facebook Chat in 2008.
Later on, Facebook launched a dedicated website interface (Messenger.com) and separated the messaging functionality from the main Facebook app, allowing users to use the web interface or download one of the standalone apps. In April 2020, Facebook officially released Messenger for Desktop, supported on Windows 10 and macOS.
Messenger allows users to send messages and exchange photos, videos, stickers, audio, and files and react to other users’ messages and interact with bots. The service also supports voice and video calling.
