Does Facebook Messenger for Android have push notifications?


Recommended Posts

I am switching from iOS to Android.

I use Facebook Messenger as my main way of contact for many friends.

When I get a new message each time, I get a Push Notification.

Does this work the same in Android?

When in the persons messages there is a info button in the top right hand corner, click that and turn off notifications for that person.

It doesn't show me as on-line all the time, I have a little mobile icon next to me in Facebook's contact list (if thats what you mean?). However even when i'm using Facebook messenger I never have a green circle next to my name indicating i'm on-line.

If a friend opens a chat with me it informs them any messages will be delivered to my mobile device.

It'll throw up a "mobile" icon next to your name though, so that's always something that makes people realize that they might not respond immediately.

Of course if they still keep messaging you should just throw them off your list. :p
