Facebook added a number of new features to the Messenger related to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia.
Facebook Messenger adds features with Russian World Cup themes
For example, the day before your team plays, users will find a series of options to give a football touch to your profile, enhancing the colors of your selection… frames, flags, wigs, graffiti, etc…
On the other hand, effects have been added to use with the camera and share with friends, adding elements or colors alluding to the selection of the country. There are also some augmented reality effects that feature some of the players, so users can imitate their moves and moves.
You can record and create different creations with all these options and share them directly in the News Feed, or in any of the media offered by the platform. And some games, like Keepie Uppie, will have special versions with World Cup motifs, for example, you can send a soccer ball or the flag of the national team in the chat, among other possibilities.
All new features that have been added Messenger add motives for all selections of competing countries, so users will have no problem finding their favourites. Some will always be visible, and some will be displayed as the World Cup schedule begins.
