What to do if you still have a problem
When things don't work on Messenger, we want to fix them right away. If you still have the problem after reporting it, please report it again with the following tips in mind:
  • Be sure to report problems through the right channel.
  • Report broken features as soon as you see them.
  • Clearly explain what you were doing when the problem occurred and what steps we can take to reproduce the problem.
  • Attach screenshots if you have them.
  • The feature might actually be working as intended, so check the Help Center to see if that's the case.
