Hi @Harreth. Sorry for waiting such a long time for the reply. Sadly, Caprine can't help here. We implement several additional features to the app but the accessibility of the website itself (messenger.com) relies on Facebook. They develop the website.
You could report the problem from the app (website) directly to Facebook. Click on your profile picture (bottom right corner), and in the menu that shows up, click "Report a problem". I'm not sure if that part of the app is accessible tho.
If you need more help, let me know.
