Ignore Conversations
When you ignore a conversation, you’ll not get future notifications. It acts like the Mute function. However, future messages will move to “Message Request” instead of the “Main Inbox.” Messenger will not inform the sender that you ignored their texts. The texts will appear as sent but not yet delivered. It’s the best approach to turn off the irritating Messenger alerts temporarily. The ignore feature is currently available only on Android devices and PC.
