The news comes from Facebook's Slingshot blog post on Wednesday, "Since we launched last week, we've heard from lots of people around the world who are excited to give Slingshot a try. Starting today, we're expanding our initial launch and making Slingshot available internationally! You can find Slingshot in app stores around the world for iPhone (iOS7) and Android (Jelly Bean and KitKat).”

After being briefly listed on the Malaysian App Store, and being launched in the US for Android and iOS users last week, Facebook's Slingshot messaging app has now been made available worldwide.

The app allows users to take photos, videos and then add drawings or funny comments to them. The idea that you then have to ‘sling’ it to a contact and they can’t see a ‘sling’ until they sling something back at you as well.

The app also allows users to sign up for the service with their mobile phone number and connect with friends in their phone's contact list or, if they want, by finding their Facebook friends.

                                                     

The app also includes the ability to write captions and make drawings on the images and video messages sent by a user. The Slingshot app also offers users viewing a message the ability to send a reaction to an image, with the React button to send the reaction to an image.

Users can also swipe down from the main app screen to access the settings tab and can access options like Save My Shots, Play Sound Effects, Play Draw Music and Hidden People.

Slingshot app is available to download from Google Play Store and the App Store.

But unfortunately, the Slingshot app only able to work with iOS devices running on iOS 7 or higher, and Android handsets running on Jelly Bean or higher.
