Facebook Inc has enabled users without an account to sign up for its Messenger app with a phone number, the social media company said on Wednesday, in another move to broaden the app's reach and make it a standalone platform. Earlier this year, Facebook opened up Messenger to developers, and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg said he wanted to connect users directly with retailers, restaurants and other businesses.
The mobile messaging service, which has 600 million users, has added a number of new features in recent months, including games and video calling.

Good news for users who actually want to use Facebook Messenger app but don't have Facebook account. They can just sign up with their name, phone number and a photo and able to use the App.
