    Excuse me, there is a mistake! I just checked again, and indeed Android 5 and 6 are no longer supported by Messenger. The information provided by Facebook is outdated... Messenger now requires Android 7 at a minimum.

    The last compatible version with your tablet is 415.0.0.14.47. You can download it from this link. For installation, you will need to enable unknown sources in Settings > Security.

    You can also use a browser and log in to the Messenger website as a substitute for the app.

    Hello,

    The minimum required version for Messenger is Android 5.0. So your tablet should still be compatible. Where does this error message appear?
