Why Aren't The Facebook & Messenger Apps The Same On PC & Mobile??

[Sedp23]

Went to the Microsoft store yesterday looking for a tablet and tried out Facebook and messenger on pc and they are pretty feature rich. Messenger can video call fb can go live. They don't have the new messenger day features but they have all the major features we lack on mobile

The version number i way ahead of mobile

What gives witth this? I thought both were UWP apps?? Is there anyone we can tweet or email about this any Microsoft insider here that knows what's going on with microsoft/facebook?

Yeah been wondering the same myself when I saw the 'go live' option on my Surface Pro 2 FB app. Like you I thought that was point of UWP apps - to have the same app and features but only visually different for mobile/xbox/pc etc?

UWP doesnt mean the apps will be the same, devs can do that-or not- on any platform, UWP just makes it easier

TLR fb devs are... -insert rant here-
