Multiple account support comes to Facebook Messenger on Android

A password is required the very first time a multiple account is opened on the app. After that, the account holder can decide whether or not a password is needed.
"All over the world, hundreds of millions of people share their phones and tablets with members of their family and friends. At Messenger, we want to make communication simpler, more seamless and secure, so we are happy that we have now launched a feature on Android that enables multiple people to log in and use Messenger from a single, shared device.
The beauty of this new feature is that your messages stay completely private. Anyone else who shares the device will just see the number of notifications of messages that you have, but they will never be able to see the content of your messages."-Facebook
