Soon after WhatsApp released a beta version for Android to support Android Wear, Facebook has pushed an update to its Messenger app for Android that adds Android Wear support. This lets you view message notifications, so that you can reply to messages easily from your Android wear smartwatch, says Android Central that reported regarding the update first.

Since the Android Wear uses swipes to switch between the features inside an app, you can just swipe to access voice reply, like with a big thumbs-up symbol and more. You can also mute conversations right from your Android device’s notifications menu. Last month Google Play Store got a dedicated Android Wear section with about 24 apps. The app count has increased gradually with new apps like TrueCaller, Runtastic and more.

The updated Facebook Messenger app is now available on the Google Play Store.
