The tab for calls will now appear in all Facebook Messenger user's apps. As this feature is slowly rolling out to a few selected users, they can now spot this function on the lower section of the app's screen, situated between the People and Chats tab.

Every day, Messenger users across the globe make over 300 million voice and video calls, a number that continues to increase.As stated by Meta, Facebook's parent company, the new…
