"The Messenger team's mission is to make Messenger the best place to communicate with all the people and businesses in the world," Facebook head of messaging products Dave Marcus said in an online post.
"I'm happy to report that we've made a good step in that direction, and toward the end of 2015, we crossed the milestone of 800 million people using Messenger every month."
He maintained that while the number was impressive, it was still 'early days' for Messenger.
