Facebook Testing 'Phone' App for Android

Facebook Phone app
An accidental Facebook update revealed that the social network is testing a new Android app called Phone.
Android Police was kind enough to take a screenshot of the update. It suggests that Facebook Phone could act as a native dialer that shows information about who is calling you, and prevent commonly blocked numbers from getting through.
I can hear you asking now, "doesn't Facebook already have a calling feature in its Messenger app?" Indeed, it does. But like it did with its Messenger app, it's likely that Facebook wants to simplify its products by releasing dedicated apps, like it did by creating a separate Messenger app. See more in the video above.
