Facebook Chat is a messaging system developed by the Facebook Company for its social network users, and through it you can chat with any of your friends quickly. Facebook provides us a suite of applications from where we can use Facebook Chat, but on Macs there is a dedicated application. Those who still want to access the chat using an application, they can configure the Messages application offered by Apple since OS X Mountain Lion.
Everything starts from the assumption that you already have an iMessage/Yahoo account set in Messages app, otherwise you need to connect using one.

For years users ask Apple to implement a system were App Store applications to be tested before being purchased, but unfortunately the U.S. Company refused to do so. To highlight a simple method that can provide this functionality since iOS 7, a developer thought to present a concept for iOS 7 of the whole system in action. Basically developers could choose as their applications to be available in trial version for 1/7/30 days, and after the expiration of that term application would become inaccessible until its purchase.
Developers can choose whether to allow a trial of 1, 7 or 30 days, or to disallow trials all together, on a per-app basis. For those apps that allow trials, the App Store would show a “Try for 7 days” button alongside “Buy app”. If you install the trial app, it gets flagged with a “Trial” flag over the icon, in a similar way to the “New” flag that was introduced in iOS 6.
