More commonly, however, the families that all share the same device throughout the day. If everyone in the household using a common tablet, it is usually necessary (annoyingly) to sign in and out of a group of Facebook account whenever you want to talk to your friends on Facebook specific.
Facebook has been testing the feature for multiple Messenger account for a while ', and the company now distributes the function of the official app for its first mobile Android, because it is not clear when users can (or if) iOS have the characteristic.
"All over the world, hundreds of millions of people share their phones and tablets with members of their family and friends. At Messenger, we want to make communication simpler, more seamless and secure, so we are happy that we have now launched a feature on Android that enables multiple people to log in and use Messenger from a single, shared device," Facebook's post reads.
"The beauty of this new feature is that messages remain strictly private. Anyone else who shares the device only see the number of notifications of messages you have, but they will never be able to view the content of messages."
Add multiple accounts to the Android version of Facebook Messenger is quite easy. All you have to do is pull up the application settings menu (within the same application) and try a new "Account" option. You can add all the different accounts that you want to use Messenger in there, but you will have to enter the password the first time that you switch to one of them. After that, you can choose to have Facebook Messenger remember the password for each account, assuming you trust your family will not mess with your conversations.
On the positive side, each account will receive notifications only for himself. So, if you are signed in to your account, you will not get any kind of notice if the brothers accounts are blown up with messages. They will have to take the device from your hands and check themselves.
