Facebook Adds Instagram Integration To IOS Messenger App

Facebook and Instagram are becoming more conjoined. With the latest Facebook Messenger update for iOS, users can now select to share Instagram photos through the app. Within the message prompt, users can tap the paperclip icon to add photos. The Messenger app will then prompt the user to select a photo from their phone or one they've uploaded to Instagram. This is not yet available for the Android version of Messenger. Previously, you could only select photos on your phone to send in messages.
