So i went on Facebook messenger to play a game but when I click on the game it says i need to update my phone...the problem is I'm using a tablet. I don't know what to do help

What tablet are you using? What OS version is the tablet on? It's quite possible, considering the lack of attention some tablets get, that it's not gotten a recent version of Android and is too old for Messenger to work now
