    how to logout of messenger

    A few years ago, the Facebook decided to launch a standalone app for Facebook Messenger and name it Messenger. Facebook users have no idea why the company decided to take this step.

    After launching the messenger app, the users were not able to make a chat with friends using the Facebook app. The strategy was to force users to use messenger app, and guess what? The company succeeded.

    There are lots of messenger app users who want to logout of Facebook messenger app, but unable to do that because the app has no straight option to logout of the app. Due to this reason, the majority of the users delete messenger app from the device to get rid of it.
