When compact mode is on, the conversation list will automatically minimize into a list of icons and expands when the mouse hovers over it. This is ideal for smaller screen devices.

FAQ
The loading page never finishes loading
You might have an older version of messenger, see if this legacy extension works.
I got a message that says it can’t find my pinned conversations
If the pinned conversation hasn’t seen activity recently, you might need to message that conversation for MessengerPlus to be able to find it and pin it.
A video wasn’t correctly embedded
This happens sometimes when the link is formatted in a different way. Unfortunately this is still being worked on and you’ll have to click the link to see the video.
The Pin/Unpin button in the settings menu isn’t showing up
Refresh the page and this issue should be fixed.
