So I am trying to find a way to incorporate a messaging feature within an app. I cannot find any up to date information on the web, so I figured I'll ask on this platform. Can someone guide me in the right direction?
I am currently using firebase and swift as building tool for my app. I am looking to build a simple chat/messaging function where users can message each other like instagram, facebook and airbnb allows users to do.

That's an incredibly broad topic. Did you search for tutorials already? There are dozens of "building chat on Firebase for iOS" tutorials out there.

Yes I did look it up online. Again, the information is outdated. Most of the sites only provide a group chat tutorial, however I'm in search of a peer to peer messaging. I'll continue the search thank you.

Firebase provides realtime database for chatting feature and many other features where you need data updates in realtime.
You can refer to https://firebase.google.com/docs/database/ios/lists-of-data where it shows you can handle child-added, child-changed event for realtime updates.
You will have to design your database to incorporate chats in it though and then write business logics to handle it through firebase realtime apis.
