How to Pin a Message in Messenger on iPhone & Android

Following a recent update, the Facebook Messenger app has added the option to pin messages. This new feature allows you to pin individual messages within a chat conversation on Messenger. What’s great is that you can pin a message in group chat as well as individual chats. There is no option to pin chat messages in a Secret Conversation though.

What is Pinned in Messenger?

When you pin a message in Messenger, a Pinned text along with a red pin icon appears next to the certain message. This implies that a particular chat message is pinned. A notification also shows up at the end of the chat window when you pin or unpin a message in Messenger.

Things to note:

  • The receiver can see your pinned messages on Messenger and vice-versa.
  • Both the sender and receiver can unpin any message, irrespective of who pinned them.
  • Messages pinned by either person (in a chat) appear together in one place.

The pin feature comes in handy as one can pin important messages such as an address, picture, or event invite and find them quickly all in one place. It is also useful to pin or bookmark specific messages during a group conversation so you don’t miss them. Similar to the reply feature, you can pin yours as well as the senders’ message(s) in a chat conversation.

That said, pinning a message in a chat won’t make it appear at the top of the chat window. The pinned messages instead stay at their original position in a chat and you can easily recognize them.

Now let’s see how to pin messages in Facebook Messenger on iPhone and Android.

How to pin a message in Facebook Messenger

  1. Make sure to update the Messenger app to the latest version.
  2. Open an individual or group chat.
  3. Long-press the particular message you would like to pin. how to pin messages on Facebook messenger
  4. Tap the ‘Pin‘ option at the bottom to pin the message. How to pin a message in messenger 2022

That’s it. ‘You pinned a message’ text will then appear at the bottom of the chat.

In the same way, you can pin messages in the Messenger group chat.

How to see pinned messages on Messenger
