In a further step towards the full integration of the video formats, Facebook has launched a new version of its Messenger application. This update adds feature to issue live video in any window of any conversation, through a new button introduced for this purpose. When you use it, Facebook users can begin to broadcast live video through a small pop-up window, with the sound turned off by default. It also allows to continue writing in conversation at the same time that the video is displayed. It aims to enrich the conversation by adding video elements that complete the information and the form of communication that the user makes.
This new possibility offered by Facebook Messenger called Video in instant (Instant) and according to the developers a step more in the audiovisual contents that are already offering all messaging applications. More than an experience similar to video conferencing, new Messenger feature is intended to be a supplement to the manual text entry, that complement and enrich the communication.
To start a new Instant Video use, there will be a new icon in the upper right corner of each conversation in Messenger. In doing so, a window of video live in an application that we can use both the rear and front camera of the device. On the other side of the conversation, our contact will continue watching the video, the text conversation window and can enable the audio if you wish. You can also respond by means of a video or an audio, if desired.
