Facebook Messenger Hits 1 Billion Downloads on Android Phones

Description

Facebook Messenger has been downloaded more than 1 billion times on Android devices — a feat that's only been accomplished by several other apps. David Marcus, vice-president of messaging products at Facebook, announced in a post that the company's popular Messenger app is now among an exclusive few to reach 1 billion downloads on the Google Play store. The news is especially impressive considering the early backlash that Messenger received last year, when Facebook rolled it out as a standalone platform separate from its flagship app. While 1 billion downloads is nothing to scoff at, it doesn't mean 1 billion people are using Messenger (it's just the download total).
