Meaning and History

2011 – 2013

The initial logotype of the then-titled Facebook Chat was the simple watermark with the typical chat icon made of blue rectangle. This logotype had a distinctive wavy line in the center of the rectangle.

2013 – 2018

In 2013, the Messenger icon was given a bright blue circle in place of the old-school rectangle.

2018 – 2020

In 2018, the Messenger team presented this one. It looked similar to the 2013 version, but it was a bit squeezed, and both the circle and the wavy line looked bolder and rounder.

2020 – today

The circle in this following version gained a violet gradient, but nothing else really changed.
