Facebook Messenger has got a whole lot of new and exciting features in 2020. Some of them include custom emoji reactions, chat themes, Watch Together, Messenger Rooms, vanish mode, app lock, and so on. Thanks to cross-app communication between Messenger and Instagram, you can now reply to a specific message on Instagram.

There is yet another small yet cool feature which is the ability to send a gift message in Messenger. As both these apps now share common features, you can send gift messages on Instagram as well. The option to send a gift-wrapped message should come handy for Messenger users who can’t send real gifts to their family and friends during the pandemic.
