To utilize the 360 degree images in Messenger, one may put the camera of their phone to panorama and capture an image or snap a 360 degree picture using a 360 photo camera or app. The user may then distribute it in the application as a normal picture.

The user, in order to distribute HD videos, can either distribute a video saved on the device from their newsfeed or from a message thread to the other.
