Stories – a trend started by Snapchat is now everywhere. There are stories in the Facebook app, stories in Instagram, stories in WhatsApp, and stories in Messenger (also known as “My Day”). While we don’t need that many stories, it’s mostly okay. However, Facebook has now made a change to the Messenger app such that sharing a photo or video taken in the Messenger app automatically selects “My Day” as one of the places to share. You can uncheck this box every time you share a photo or video with someone, but if you’re looking for a more permanent solution, we’re here for you.
