Facebook Messenger Platform has launched the Messenger Platform (Beta) with bots. With this Beta version, the user can now download apps on for the messenger for you to use it directly from the conversations if you already have Messenger in your Android.
From now, instead of just sending the link to your friend to purchase anything, you can directly show them the product and give them the option to buy it right there.
The Facebook said, will support not only sending and receiving text, but also images and interactive rich bubbles containing multiple calls-to-action. Developers can also set a welcome screen for their threads to set context as well as different controls. Starting today, all developers and businesses will have access to documents to build bots for Messenger, and submit them for review. We will gradually accept and approve submissions to ensure the best experiences for everyone on Messenger.
Bots can provide anything from automated subscription content like weather and traffic updates, to customized communications like receipts, shipping notifications, and live automated messages all by interacting directly with the people who want to get them.
