Facebook Messenger Android

Facebook Messenger

This is a newly released application which I had came across suddenly today in my office.
To be frank, this application seriously can came in handy.
It is just like a combination of Whatsapp and Facebook Chat.
You can message your friend in your phone contact.
It's simple to use.
Clean and simple UI but looks nice.
Fast and smooth.
Geotagging available and pictures can be included in messages as well.
Group messaging also available.

Login screen.

Messages screen.

Geotagging ability.

However, I notice some minor bugs and possible problem need to be solved.
For instance, contact numbers in your phone without country code inserted are not possible to send messages to.
I've already forwarded an email to the developer and hopefully they will provide a solution on this matter as soon as possible.
