However, encrypted chats have lagged behind normal Messenger chats in features and availability, which the service is now improving.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, you can create an end-to-end encrypted conversation with someone by creating a \u201csecret\u201d conversation, but the app has been slowly pushing its otherwise plaintext regular chats into the encrypted side as well. Now, though, this is perhaps the app\u2019s most considerable effort in that direction. The company is expanding testing of \u201cdefault\u201d end-to-end encrypted conversations, and you might already see a number of your chats get encrypted on their own. It won\u2019t happen to everyone at the same time, but it\u2019s happening eventually.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-867331\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/FB-Messenger-Encryption-1-650x566.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"557\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Meta<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>End-to-end encrypted chats are also gaining support for chat themes, reactions, active status, and link previews, and Android users can also see chat bubbles for these conversations. In short, they\u2019ll now work just like how current, unencrypted chats work. The end goal for this is to eventually make all, or most, Messenger chats end-to-end encrypted however possible.<\/p>\n<p>The problem with end-to-end encryption is that it has historically proved tricky to do in a multi-device manner, and while messaging apps eventually began figuring it out, it\u2019s been a long time coming. The secret conversations currently supported on Messenger have historically not been accessible from multiple devices, nor from the desktop web version of Facebook, but rather only from the device they were created from. In the face of a wider encryption rollout, we should assume Facebook has something figured out for this. We\u2019ll see how this pans out over the course of this year.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2023\/01\/expanding-features-for-end-to-end-encryption-on-messenger\/\">Meta<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
