How do I send a message in Messenger?
To send a message in Messenger, open the Messenger app or the Messenger website and sign in with your account. Then choose the person or group you want to message. If you already have an existing chat, open it and type your message in the text box at the bottom of the conversation. If you are starting a new conversation, look for the new message option, enter the name of the person or group, and then type your message.
After writing your message, press the send button, which usually looks like a paper airplane or arrow. The message should appear in the conversation immediately after sending. You can also add photos, stickers, voice messages, or files if the chat supports them.
If the message does not send, check your internet connection and make sure the app or browser page is working properly. If you are using a shared device, verify that you are signed into the correct account.
