What do the icons on Facebook Messenger mean?
The icons used in Facebook Messenger let you know when your messages have been sent, delivered and read. They have been changing over the past few months, but as of writing, the current set used in the Android and iOS apps follows:A blue circle means your message is sendingA blue circle with a checkmark means your message has been sentA filled-in blue circle with a checkmark means your message has been deliveredA small version of your friend's photo will pop up below the message when they've read itThe time between your message is sending and your message has been sent should be brief - if it isn't, there might be a problem with your connection or with Facebook. Delivered may be the one you care about most - that means it's on your friend's device and your friend can read the message.Pro tip: if you tap message, you can see exactly what time it was seen by your friend. For example, before tapping on the message:After tapping on the message ("Were"):So I know that my message was seen right after I sent it at 1:03 AM. If you are sending a message to a group of friends, tapping the message will show you the names of the friends who have read it in additional to seeing their profile photo.A confusing past: the set of icons being used have changed over time. Just 2-3 months ago, this is what you would have seen instead:You'll notice that the same icon (an open blue circle) has been used to mean two different things!I can only imagine that the sent, delivered and read concepts have been difficult for the product's designers to convey to people, and as a result they have had to continue iterating to find a set that is intuitive and easy to understand. Here's hoping they've landed on a set that works!
New Facebook chat: green dot icon versus phone icon?
I've noticed on the updated Facebook that some of my friends may be online with chat (shown by the green dot), but any time this green dot isn't present, they have a phone icon. These friends, I know, always use their phones for anything online (including Facebook), but what's the difference between these two icons? If the green dot isn't present, does that mean they're offline? Or maybe they didn't log off properly? Or they logged off, but FB still shows them online? I know I've tried to send a message to a few of them when the phone icon shows (and it says it'll send it to their phones), but they never reply whereas they would if the green dot was showing. Any ideas?

The green dot beside the name of a person in the facebook messenger means that, the person is 'active' on facebook, which means he/she is using facebook at the current time..Further,the 'Web'or 'Mobile' written alongside the green dot denotes that he/she is accessing facebook using a computer or a mobile.The green dot next to the phone icon, like this:Means that the contact is available to call. When they meet the following 3 criteria, that dot will appear:- are using or recently using the Messenger app- their device supports calling through Messenger- they're reachable via the internetWhy I'm saying Yossi is wrong, is because it looks like he's confused between the dot by the phone icon (what the question is asking) and the dot by the contacts name, which does mean they're online using Messenger
