The moment Facebook Introduced Messenger Rooms in April, you didn’t need to have a Messenger app on your phone to start video calling your friends and family. The company made it possible so that you can join a group call with just a link on your News Feed or in Group and event pages. But now that Roos has been available for some months now, Facebook is making it easier to use the feature through Messenger.
To begin with, the company is bringing a new, more inclusive interface for creating Rooms within Messenger. While you could create and share Rooms within the app before, the updated UI allows you to design them with an activity name. It will also allow you to set a future start date for your group chat and manage your invite list. These are all things you can do through Facebook’s News Feed, but now you’ll also be able to do them through Messenger.
The tech giant is also giving Messenger users more options when it comes to how they can create and design their Rooms. You’ll be able to set a custom background by uploading your photos. If you want to confuse the people you’re chatting with, you can also use a video as a background.
The new Rooms creation feature is coming to Messenger on mobile today, with desktop support coming in months to come. Meanwhile, you’ll be able to customize your background sometime in the coming weeks.
