About your cross-app communication chats on Instagram
Beginning in mid-December 2023, you will no longer be able to chat with Facebook accounts on Instagram.
Once cross-app communication isn’t available:
- You won’t be able to start new conversations or calls with Facebook accounts from Instagram.
- Any existing chats on Instagram that you’ve had with Facebook accounts will become read-only, even if these Facebook accounts are removed from the chat. This means that you and others with Instagram accounts can’t send new messages in these chats.
- Facebook accounts won’t be able to view your Activity Status or whether you’ve seen a message.
- Any existing chats you've had with Facebook accounts won't move to your inbox on Facebook or Messenger.
