Facebook releases new ‘Stickered for Messenger’ app for mobile users

Social network Facebook has revealed in a recently-released blog post that it is releasing a spin-off of its Messenger app to unfold a new 'sticker' feature for mobile users, in time for Christmas.

The Messenger spinoff app is called 'Stickered for Messenger.' The app - which is a lightweight add-on app - essentially gives Facebook users the ability to add stickers to photo, to give them a more personal edge, and send them through the Messenger service.

The announcement of the new 'Stickered for Messenger' app came via a recent blog post by Facebook product management director Peter Martinazzi. The app has initially been released for Android devices and is now available from the Google Play Store. It will 'soon' come to the Apple iOS App Store.

About the 'Stickered for Messenger' app, The Next Web said in a recent report that the app will essentially give Messenger users the ability to put "huge emoticons and cute cartoon animals over your friends' faces easily."

Meanwhile, in announcing the 'Stickered for Messenger' app, Martinazzi said in the blog post that Facebook is introducing some 'holiday goodies' for Messenger users. These goodies include holiday-inspired sticker packs; snow globe chat heads; and festive frame for New Year's Eve selfies.
