Facebook Launches Work Chat App For Facebook At Work

If you’re one of the select few who work for a company that uses Facebook for Work, then Facebook has just released the messaging app for you. Work Chat is Facebook’s take on work-based communication apps like Slack and Hipchat — although it does feel slightly barebones for now.

Work Chat joins Facebook’s other work-related app, aptly named Facebook at Work, released back in January. It is pretty much identical to Facebook’s regular Messenger app, with the exception that you can only chat with your “work friends.” The first version of the app allows users to message coworkers, create work groups, place VoIP calls, and send stickers.

You can grab the app from Google Play or using the widget below, but you’ll need a Facebook work account to use it. If you or your company are interesting in Facebook at Work, you can visit the Facebook Help Center for more information.
