When Facebook Messenger was first introduced, it allowed users to sign up for an account by using their phone number. Surprisingly, Facebook has made changes to Messenger, which now requires new users to have a Facebook account in order to sign up for the service based on a statement by venturebeat.

Fortunately, those who already signed up to Facebook Messenger using their phone number will not have worry, as the new changes only affect new users.
