Facebook Messenger for iPhone updated, Adds Stickers, Swipe to Delete
Facebook Messenger for iPhone is updated today with some new features and bunch of performance improvements. One of the new feature which personally I really liked is Stickers.
Facebook Stickers was first introduced in Android for Facebook Messenger. If you are already a Facebook app user and have used Stickers than no need of any tutorials on how to use it. User can even download the new Stickers if you are happy with the current one.
And Second update which I was waiting for was Swipe for Delete conversation. Most of the iOS app has this feature already available. but surprisingly it was still pending with Facebook but with this update Facebook has included this feature.
Other than this two main features there are some bug fixes and also performance enhancements. But with Chat heads released for main Facebook app I am still not cleared why don’t they integrate the two and make it one. Please let me know your view for the new feature.

All the YouTube link generally opens in the native iOS apps and the similar is the case with Windows Phone. Both the OS gives the default option of opening all the YouTube links with their native app. But since the launch there hasn’t been any significant update and because of that it lacks many features compared to the mobile YouTube website that Google launched two years ago.
With a lot of talk of iOS 6 which is set to announced at Apple’s WWDC, the native YouTube app should also be the subject of change. So till now open if user wants to stop iOS from launching the native YouTube app and force to use the YouTube mobile website, user just have to disable YouTube under
Settings –> General –> Restrictions.
With the above steps users will be able to open all the YouTube links in the mobile website and will also hide the native YouTube app. And if you decide to revert your mind than you simply need to follow the above steps and enable it again and native YouTube app will be enabled.
