Facebook Messenger video and voice calls are getting much secure than ever before

Facebook Messenger calls are getting more secure than ever before. Just like one-on-one chats, with the latest update, Facebook Messenger is getting end-to-end encryption feature for voice as well as video calls. This will make all voice and video calls happening on Messenger much secure than ever before.

The latest update brings the end-to-end encryption to Facebook Messenger video and voice calls. In simple words, all chats happening on Messenger including video and voice calls will remain between the sender and the receiver of the message from now on.
