Problem with sending messages from Facebook Messenger: Why do Facebook messages to just one friend go through only after I attempt to video chat with them?
Well, there may be different reasons for this. The most common cause is a poor internet connection. When you send a message to someone, your message may not reach them due to a temporary internet outage. But when you make a video call to him, you send internet connection packages, along with your message. This problem is not unique to Facebook Messenger and has been seen in other applications. You may be surprised to know that this problem has a history, even in SMS!
In the past, when we used to send text messages to communicate, we faced the same problem. For example, we used to send an SMS to a friend, but it was not confirmed. Then we called him (he did not need to answer, a miss call was enough), and then we saw that the text message had reached him. Such situations now happen with the Internet as well.
Another reason for problem with sending messages from Facebook Messenger
Another reason for this problem is that your friend is not connected to the Internet. Your message may not reach him because he is not in the Messenger app. Or he has cut off his internet line and does not have access to Wi-Fi. In some phones, there is a situation that the connection of chat applications with the Internet is disconnected by locking the phone. Or your friend’s phone may be in ultra-battery mode, causing the Internet to be disconnected.
In either case, your message may not reach him. If the problem is that he is not in the application, the connection is established when you make a video call with him, and the message will reach him. However, we recommend that you raise this issue in the support section of your chat app so that the relevant experts can review and resolve the issue.
