It seems like Valentine’s fever is gripping the planet, andn ow the world’s largest social network wants to make the day even cuter.

Facebook have installed a little button on Messenger above the Send button, a tiny heart with an arrow running through it.

If you tap this before you send the message, you are told ‘Your valentine will be unwrapped’ and the heart turns red. The recipient then gets to ‘unwrap your message.

Even though it doesn’t really count as a new feature, it’s still pretty cute. Nice touch, Facebook.
