Facebook completes the creation of an anonymous messenger for mobile platforms. Through this program, users will be able to communicate without pointing their real names. The application will be released on iOS and Android in the next few weeks.
According to the newspaper The New York Times, the project on Facebook oversees Josh Miller - product manager for social networks, who joined the company after buying his startup Branch. The task of the new application is to allow users to openly discuss various topics under any nicknames.
All the details about the new Facebook messenger remain unclear - for example, whether it is integrated with the main site Facebook, will work as the link between anonymous and users with real names, whether it will be in addition to messages, share photos and other content, etc.
Earlier this year, Facebook introduced a new system of entry to third-party mobile applications with their registration data - users can work with the program anonymously, without disclosing your information to developers. If the user wants to enter public, he will be able to configure what information about it will be available. Presentation of the service took place in the framework of the Facebook f8 conference for developers.
