Meta has announced the shutdown of its Messenger desktop apps for Mac and Windows, effective December 15, 2025. This move requires users to switch to Facebook.com for computer-based messaging.
Transition Details and Timeline
As part of the transition, users will receive in-app notifications, providing them with a 60-day period to continue using Messenger before the apps are permanently closed. Meta recommends users activate secure storage to preserve their chat history. Without this, chat data will be deleted post-shutdown.
- The Messenger desktop app will be removed from the Apple App Store.
- After December 15, desktop users will be redirected to Facebook.com.
- Non-Facebook account holders will be redirected to Messenger.com.
User Action and Impact
To assure minimal disruption, Meta encourages users to save their chat history promptly. The discontinuation stems from a strategic pivot, focusing on the efficiency of web-based communications and broader integration, precisely tilting towards Facebook's online platform.
