Facebook can return Messenger chats to your main application. While the function is being tested and not available to everyone.
What
Known
Messenger separated from Facebook back in 2011.and in 2014 it was completely removed from there. And now, five years later, the company decided to merge the applications again. Hong Kong blogger Jane Manchun Wong posted the screenshots on her Twitter account. They show that to go to messages you need to press the messenger button. But instead of opening a separate app, you're taken to a new Chats section.

Wong notes that this section only containslimited set of Messenger features. It can be used for messaging, but you still have to open the messenger to make calls and send photos.
The app will still exist, but for an audience separate from Facebook. The screenshots also show that the chats will have a white design. The same one currently used in Messenger.
When exactly the update will be available to all is not yet known.
