The folks over at Facebook have just given the Facebook Messenger app a fresh coat of paint by way of a new update. Overall, the new update brings a major overhaul to the app, making it up to par with the beta version.
As Windows Central notes, several new features to the app include the ability to send GIFs in messages, a new user interface and theme color, and the ability to customize a username. If you’re not already using the app, you can see the full app description and a download link below.
