Facebook has updated the Messenger application for Windows 10 and 11: it now uses many native UWP controls, making it faster and more optimal resources.
The program was previously developed in Electron and has now been rewritten in React Native. Moving to a more native solution boosts application performance while lowering system resource usage.
Instead of using a proprietary solution, Messenger now uses the normal controls of a typical Windows GUI. The new version of the program is 100MB smaller than the previous one. There have been a number of bug fixes and enhancements.
Recently the corporation changed it name from Facebook to Meta Platforms, Inc. The company is the parent organization of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, among other subsidiaries.
