In May 2015, the monthly audience of the service was two times less – 600 million. In July 2016 – 1 billion .
The specified audience is potential users of the Instant Games gaming platform integrated into Messenger in November last year. The games launched on it gain about 1 million users per week.
Facebook Messenger itself was released for mobile systems in August 2011. Since July 2014, users of mobile Facebook can only exchange messages through it.
