Facebook is rolling out some exciting updates to Facebook Messenger, focusing on enriching video calls and messaging with instant customization and convenience.
New AI-Powered Backgrounds: Add Some Flair to Your Calls

This feature allows for instant personalization – letting you show your personality while you chat. To activate the feature, just hit the effects icon during a video call and select “Wallpapers.”
Calling Gets a Boost: High Definition and Noise Suppression for Clear Conversations
Facebook Messenger is enhancing video call quality with high-definition streaming for clearer, crisper visuals. High definition for video calls will be enabled by default for calls made over Wi-Fi.
