Facebook Messenger Day is a good alternative for Snapchat
These days, Facebook has globally launched Messenger Day. With this new chat, Facebook will manage to put an utilitarian spin on the slideshow format.
The new Messenger Day is approximately the same thing as Snapchat. But, we also must say that Snapchat Stories is for retelling what people have done, while Messenger Day’s filters and Active
Now indicators will help people find friends, chat and meet up with them. So, after gaining millions of users through tests in a couple of countries like Australia and Poland, Messenger Day has been released globally.
This means that everyone will be able to use the new Messenger Day place at the top of Facebook’s chat app with the newest iOS and Android updates, plus in desktop messaging threads.
Moreover, specifically with this new update, people will be able to share with the public custom made photos and videos that disappear after 24 hours.

David Marcus, Facebook’s VP of messaging, has declared that the new Day will definitely insert advertisements between posts to become Messenger’s first revenue stream.
So alongside other Facebook services, like WhatsApp, Facebook Stories and Instagram Stories, the new Messenger Day could also be used to compete with Snapchat for user growth.
As we know, a billion people use Messenger, which is really incredible. We don’t know if Snap will be able to resist with such huge competition. Moreover, it is interesting to see if Snap’s share price slightly dropped this week as Messenger Day was announced.
With this new update, Facebook shows that while Snapchat may have invented Stories, the company is not afraid to copy, no matter what critics say.

It is not a secret that Facebook is stealing the best parts of Snapchat and putting them front and center. This is probably the opposite of innovation, but the company’s ideology has always focused around scale, and not originality.
