After Facebook, now its famous Messenger made it to top two in the list of most popular apps in the US.
Facebook is still dominating the top sport in US app market, and now Messengers ended up on second spot.
A new report from digital media analytics company comScore shows that Facebook Messenger is currently the second most popular app in America.
Messenger is Facebook’s answer to concerns that younger users are gravitating more to messaging apps like Snapchat. Of late, Facebook has embellished the app, adding in video calling, instant video sharing, peer-to-peer payments and even a personal assistant called M.
Whatever the reasons for the increased focus on Messenger, the company’s efforts are paying off.
According to comScore, Messenger beat out YouTube for the second place spot with the help of the 59.5 percent of iOS or Android smartphone owners who used Messenger at least once a month.
