He continued…

Today more than 500 million people are using Messenger each month and we’re more committed than ever to make it the best possible messaging experience.

Remember we were all forced to download the messaging app in August after Facebook decided to make messaging have a standalone app. This definitely led to the increase in the monthly users of this app. I hate it whenever am been forced to do  what i don't want to do like I was forced to download the Facebook Messenger.
