This article covers a number of fixes for when Facebook Messenger can’t send a message properly both on the Facebook website and on the official Facebook Messenger app. These solutions can be used when a message is stuck on send, when Facebook Messenger appears offline, and when a DM has been sent but doesn’t seem to have been delivered properly.
Facebook Messenger not sending messages properly can be the result of a number of factors.
•The Facebook Messenger service experiencing issues or being offline
•Restrictions placed on an account by a contact or Facebook support
•Internet connectivity issues
Here’s all of the best solutions for fixing Facebook Messenger when it won’t send a message.
1.Check if Facebook Messenger’s down. It’s possible that the entire Facebook service, or aspects relating to Facebook Messenger, could be offline or experiencing errors.
2.Make sure you're using the official Messenger app. Some other messaging app or the main Facebook app may not behave the same way the actual Messenger app does.
3.Check your internet connection. The easiest way to do this is to open a website other than Facebook in a web browser or check an app that requires an internet connection.
4.Switch to a cellular connection. Your Wi-Fi internet may be having connection issues so turn it off and try sending a Facebook message while on your 4G or 5G network.
5.Switch to a Wi-Fi internet connection. Your cellular network provider could be down or congested. Turn your mobile connectivity off on your iPhone or Android smartphone and try using Facebook Messenger again to send a message.
