If you have Facebook Messenger installed on your phone, you may have noticed a small notification at the top of your screen that says “You have a new message.” This notification will persist until you open Messenger and read the new message. But why does Facebook Messenger show this notification? The notification is a way for Facebook to remind you that there is a new message waiting for you in Messenger. It’s an easy way to keep track of new messages without having to constantly open the app.
If you don’t want to see the “You have a new message” notification, you can disable it in the settings. Just open Messenger and go to Settings > Notifications > New Message Alerts. Toggle the switch off next to “Show New Message Alerts.”Video – Why Does Facebook Messenger Show I Have A Message
