How to Fix Facebook Messenger Dropping Calls with Speedify

Facebook Messenger Dropping Calls? You Can Combine Multiple Internet Connections Together - Like Starlink, Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G, and DSL - with Speedify

If you have tried the Messenger voice / video call function, you may have seen some glitches when using it – Facebook Messenger might be losing connection and dropping calls or even not working at all. 

The reason for Facebook Messenger dropping calls is most likely a poor connection to the Internet. You can solve Facebook Live issues by joining your main Internet connection with another Internet source like a Starlink or DSL, 4G, 5G. Whether at home, work, or on-the-go, Speedify works with all live streaming software and social platforms to get you faster, more reliable and secure Internet.

In this article we'll show you how you can avoid Facebook Messenger dropping calls in order to keep up with the conversation with your friends and family.

Quick answer

Should you have a backup 4G, 5G, Starlink, or cable internet connection?

Yes — every internet connection goes down, including Starlink, which drops for ~34 minutes a day on average. A backup connection from a different provider means one outage never takes you fully offline. The most common options are a 4G/5G cellular hotspot, a cable or DSL line, or a second satellite dish.

Speedify bonds any two connections into one — automatic failover, more speed, no dropped calls.

Why is Facebook Messenger Dropping Calls?

We will exclude from the start causes such as an older version of the Messenger app from Facebook on your iPhone or Android device. A Facebook Messenger call requires a good amount of bandwidth from your Internet connection to work properly, so when determining why your Facebook Messenger loses connection and drops the call, you should look at your Internet connection. It might be that your Internet connection is too slow and doesn’t have enough bandwidth for audio-video streaming, or that the connection is flaky and experiencing excessive packet loss. What’s worse, is that both of these issues are often amplified when you are on the move since mobile devices can not easily transition between different Wi-Fi networks or cell towers without interrupting apps and dropping calls, such as the ones from Facebook Messenger.

Regardless of the root cause, by default iPhones, Android smartphones and other mobile devices are designed to only use one Internet connection at a time, despite the fact that they are often connected to both wifi and cellular data. But, what if you could use BOTH connections for their combined speed and reliability?

Speedify is the only app that can combine multiple internet sources into one bonded super-connection for more stable and secure live streaming, video calling, and web browsing. Instead of just using one connection, Speedify allows your iPhone, Android smartphone, laptop and other devices to connect to the Internet over all available connections simultaneously.

Speedify also monitors the quality of your Internet connections. When it detects that a signal is weak or that the network is too slow, it will automatically and seamlessly reroute the data through the other working connection. Best of all, when the other connection is back online and reliable, it begins using it again – automatically and in the background. Say goodbye to Facebook Messenger dropping calls!
