Facebook might be preparing its own Snapchat competitor dubbed Slingshot, but that’s not stopping the social networking giant from adding some similar features to its popular Messenger app. A new update this week brings instant video sending to Facebook Messenger, an option to shoot and send 15-second video messages. Facebook Messenger has long supported photo sharing and a Skype-powered video calling service on the web, but this is the first time its more than one billion users can start sending small video clips to each other. You can send and receive video clips through Facebook Messenger on iOS and Android, but they’re not fully supported on Facebook Paper and you’re not able to send clips from Facebook.com.
