Facebook Announces New Messenger Branding & Releases New Messaging Features
We’re excited to introduce a new event format, F8 Refresh. Our virtual stage will be open to developers across the world and live-streamed on our Facebook for Developers page on June 2nd.
The Facebook team in this ‘Refresh’ event will display its new projects and tools across its several apps and also give insights into its workings on AR, VR, and other tech tools. The new format will also allow more developers to show how they are making use of Facebook’s tools to develop new tools and processes. We are most likely to get more on Facebook’s upcoming AR glasses along with the smartwatch. The event will also showcase technical demonstrations of Facebook products.
Conclusion
The F8 events have been the main event where Facebook has revealed several major updates like Messenger group calls, WhatsApp business options, business tools, etc. It will be interesting to see what Facebook has in stock. You can sign up here at Facebook for developers to get alerts when F8 Refresh registration goes live and to get updates of the event.
