Facebook adds Like Button sticker in Messenger for Android, iPhone and iPad


Facebook for Android and iPhone Like Button

Facebook has started rolling out Like button sticker for the Android and iOS apps in Messaging. This works on both Facebook app and the separate Facebook Messenger app. This lets you send a quick Thumbs Up symbol to others in on tap quickly. This would be definitely useful to quickly reply with a Like button instead of a long message to accept something. Facebook says that this feature is part of a recent update, according to Techcrunch. This did not appear in the changelog in both the iOS and Android apps.

Facebook Messenger for Android got updated with support for Stickers back in April and the iPhone app got the update in May that brought stickers. Now the Stickers is still there, but you get a thumbs up sign next to that when you don’t type anything instead of send button. You cannot send two Like Button Sticker continuously, but you can send a sticker after replying with a text.

The new Like Replies are now available in Facebook and Messenger for iOS and Android and Mobile web (m.facebook.com), but it’s not available on desktop yet. But you can view the Like sticker on desktop messenger when someone sends it using the mobile apps.
