Yes, finally. After lots of petitions and blog posts, Facebook has finally rolled out an important feature that was needed by many. Facebook’s Private Messaging feature has been updated with a basic search functionality.

Now you can search your Facebook messages in Inbox through the newly added search functionality. Previously, there was no other way to find messages, other than going through the pages one by one. So users have thousands of messages in their Inbox, and finding old messages for them was a very difficult task. And most of the times, old messages became essentially unfindable.

Currently, only some users have this new functionality. Hopefully, it will be rolled out for everyone soon.
