The video calling feature for Facebook’s Messenger was announced at the end of last month but was limited to just 18 countries. Now the feature is available to users using the application worldwide.
The feature was initially launched in Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Denmark, France, Greece, Ireland, Laos, Lithuania, Mexico, Nigeria, Norway, Oman, Poland, Portugal, UK, USA and Uruguay on both iOS and Android platforms. Facebook’s Vice President of messaging said
Quick update on video calling in Messenger: We’re happy to share we’ve now rolled out the capability globally, with the exception of a few countries we’re still working on improving quality for. So make sure you get the latest and greatest version for iOS and Android, give it a try, and as always … tell us how we can make it even better for you!
