Latest Facebook Messenger App update is really awesome. Voice messaging is exactly what we all waited for for so long. However there’s still one thing missing. Members of numerous Facebook Groups and Events don’t actually have a native tool for live voice conversations.

We’re trying to change this with GroupVox app that brings live voice messaging to existing Facebook Groups and Events. It feels natural to send voice notes to communities you’re a part of, right from any iOS device, Android or using built-in web-based player on Facebook. All voice messages are stored on Group’s Timeline and can be played anytime.

Check it out at Google Play and at AppStore. It’s free.

There we go I was scrolling through these comments without seeing a “Facebook sucks” post that prove geeks really are nerds in their parents basement

I use Facebook because everyone I know does.. what privacy concerns? Use a fake last name and.don’t.upload or allow ppl to tag you and there are no concerns.. Facebook is only as unprivate as u make it.. bro

Agree. The new app sucks rocks. They finally give us a “share” link but now half of the photos in your stream just simply will not load or refresh and the only way to attempt a refresh is to scroll all the way to the top of your feed to do the stupid pull down-release thing. Fix the photo problem and put a refresh button in the menu – oh and maybe a way to get just a friggin list of your friends would be nice… It’s not like it’s a SOCIAL network or anything.

We must be using different apps. I think the new app is fantastic.

Probably want to make som,e type of paid option to make money off of. Plus teen girls love to talk and probably could make a killing through them.

Remind me again why I should be interested in a social network that thinks my privacy is a concept as outmoded as payphones and the FiloFax?

This app is awesome if all of your friends have iPhones and you want to group text

They need to worry more about their Android app that is completely worthless since last month’s update that made it native. Definitely now the worst it’s been in a couple of years.

Why are you acting like anybody who uses Facebook/this feature is a creep?
