【Uncut Archives】
Facebook just added a feature to Messenger that may make even the most ardent skeptics want to use the app: group video calling.
The Uncut Archiveschat app now allows groups of up to six friends to make video calls directly from their messages.
SEE ALSO: Live 360-degree videos are coming to FacebookThe feature, available now to anyone with the latest version of the app, also includes the Snapchat-like animated masks Facebook has been experimenting with on the iOS version of Messenger. (The company says Android support for the feature is "coming soon.")
Starting a group call works the same way as it does for one-to-one video calls in the app: tapping the camera icon in the top right corner while in a chat will begin the video call.

Though Messenger is still the app that many people love to hate, the addition of group video calling makes the app more useful than WhatsApp, which only just added one-to-one video calling last month.
