Hello jokoco,


It seems like you want to know the difference between the Messages app, and the Messenger app. We'd like to provide some information.


Messages is an Apple app, that you can use to send texts, photos, videos, and more. Please check out this link which explains what you can do with Messages and how to use it, which may help: Use Messages on your iPhone or iPad

Send a message on your iPhone or iPad

1. Open Messages.
2. Tap the Compose button  to start a new message. Or go to an existing conversation.
3. Type your message, then tap the Send button send message button.

With iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 and later, you can also use inline replies and mentions to call attention to specific messages and people within the messages.


For information on the Messenger app, please check out the developer's website, which offers more details about the features of that app: Messenger Features


Take care!
