In addition, Facebook is going to bring some more new features, which will be launched experimentally very soon. This includes how a user can control who or what can send him a message. However, the details have not been disclosed yet.

In addition, the user is going to turn on the feature of blurring pictures of people who are not interested in reading the message. If they send a message, it will show a notification that a new message has arrived, without showing it directly. This feature is currently available on Instagram and WhatsApp.
