Sharing Your Messenger Link
Open Messenger. Tap the app icon that looks like a white lightning bolt inside a blue speech bubble. Use this method to invite someone to chat with you on Messenger. If someone who doesn't have Messenger uses your invite link, they will be prompted to sign up and download the app. This method works for Android, iPhone, and iPad. You can also follow these steps using the Messenger site on a computer.
Tap ☰. You'll see this three-line menu icon in the top left corner of your screen.
Tap Android 7 Settings. This gear icon is in the top right corner of the menu.
Tap Username. Scroll down the menu to see this option next to an "@" on an orange background. Your link will be copied to your clipboard.
Share the link with others. Paste the link anywhere, like in a chat on Discord or in an email, where others can see the link and click it. Once they click the link, Messenger will open a chat with you in a web browser or the mobile app (depending on whether they click the app on a phone or a computer).
Inviting Someone to a Chat
Open Messenger. Tap the app icon that looks like a white lightning bolt inside a blue speech bubble. Use this method to invite a friend on Facebook to join a conversation in a Messenger group or community. They won't be able to join community chats if the community is private and they aren't in the community. This method works for Android, iPhone, and iPad. You can also follow these steps if you're using the Messenger site on a computer.
Open the chat you want to invite your friend to. It can be a specific chat with someone else or a public community chat. Tap the three-line menu icon to open the side menu and quickly find your community chats.
Tap the name of the chat. If the chat is a group you made, it'll be the names of everyone in the conversation.
Tap Invite/Add. You'll see it under the image for the chat. The button will say "Add" if you're adding people to a group chat, and "Invite" if you're inviting friends to join a community chat.
Select who to invite. Select names under "Community members" or tap "Facebook friends" to see a list of suggested people to invite, including non-members of that community.
Tap Add/Send. It's in the top right corner of your screen. This will say "Add" if you're adding someone to a group chat. You'll see "Send" if you're sending an invite to a community chat.
