Facebook introduces Messenger Rooms to compete against Zoom

Facebook has just introduced Messenger Rooms which is perfect to compete against Zoom which is getting popular since the lockdown has been in place as a lot of people are working from home.

With Messenger rooms, you can create a room so you can invite anyone to join the video call even though they do not have a Facebook account. The Messenger rooms can handle up to 50 people with no time limit. The messenger rooms are perfect for this pandemic as you can talk to 50 people without any limit at the same time.

If you’re worried about your background, Messenger rooms also allow you to play with AR effects in where you can add some effects like bunny ears to your video and of course, change your backgrounds and mood lighting. If you are the administrator of the room, you can create a room and see who can join and remove the people and lock the room in case you don’t want other people to join anymore.

Messenger Rooms will be rolling out in some countries this week and will expand to the rest of the world in the coming weeks.
