The company has dropped the previous requirement, which was a Facebook account. <!--break--> Signing up for the service is simple, just download the app and select the "not on Facebook" option to use your phone number to sign up.</p>

<p>With this update, more people can enjoy all the features that are available on Messenger – including photos, videos, group chats, voice and video calling, stickers and more. All you need is a phone number.</p>
