As soon as the user clicks “Refresh”, the usual DM icon in the upper right corner of Instagram will be replaced with the Facebook Messenger logo. Instagram chats are truly more colorful than before, with the sender’s messages changing from blue to purple as they scroll. However, at least for now, it is still not possible to send messages to Facebook users from Instagram.

But Facebook has made it clear that it plans to unify the messaging platforms of its hugely popular apps to enable communication between Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp. Facebook is reportedly rebuilding the underlying infrastructure so that those who used only one of its apps can write to users of other Facebook apps.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg also announced a desire to implement end-to-end encryption in the system. By integrating its most popular apps, Facebook can compete directly with Apple’s iMessage. Facebook acquired Instagram for $ 1 billion in 2012 and acquired WhatsApp in 2014 for $ 19 billion.
