Facebook Messenger gets updated on Android and Windows Phone

Facebook Messenger has received an update on both Windows Phone and Android, taking the version numbers to 3.1 and 4.0 respectively. Talking about the update on Android first, it brings the ability to pin a conversation to your home screen. The update brings other features that were introduced in the update for iOS last week. Users can now create groups and group chat using their Android phones. You can also forward images and conversations to people not in that conversation, as well as make free calls over WiFi for free, or through your network using standard billing rates. You can get the latest version of the app on the Play Store here.
