Facebook Release Notes

Today, we’re rolling out new features on Facebook, powered by Meta AI, that let you turn photos and Feed posts into share-worthy moments that spark meaningful interactions and conversations with friends.

Now, you can bring your profile picture to life and express how you feel with animations like waving or wearing a party hat.

You can also add extra personality to your Feed posts with animated backgrounds and change the mood of your Stories and Memories with a Meta AI prompt.

Today, we’re rolling out new features on Facebook powered by Meta AI that make it easier and more fun to express yourself in your profile picture, photos, Feed posts, and Stories.

Bring Your Profile Picture to Life

You can now animate your profile picture, turning a still photo into a playful animation in seconds. Choose from preset animations — like natural, party hat, confetti, wave, and heart — to bring your profile picture to life depending on how you’re feeling. We’ll add more animation options throughout the year so you can celebrate and express yourself during seasonal moments and special events.

For the best results, we recommend using a photo that features a single person facing the camera with their face clearly visible, and not holding other objects. You can select photos to animate directly from your camera roll or choose photos you’ve already uploaded to Facebook. Once a photo is animated, you can share it to your Feed and view it on your profile.

Restyle Your Stories and Memories

Restyle lets you transform the aesthetic of an image in Facebook Stories and Memories using preset style options or your own text-based AI prompt. We’ll also recommend Memories with Restyle options in your Stories.

After uploading a photo to Stories or viewing your Memories to share on Stories, you can tap Restyle and either use Meta AI to change things up how you want, or pick from Styles (like anime or illustrated), Moods (like glowy), Lighting (like ethereal), Colors (like cool or pink), and Backdrops (like beach or cityscape).

Share Scroll-Stopping Text Posts to Your Feed

Text posts are a great way to share what’s on your mind, and now you can match that energy visually, too. We’re gradually rolling out the ability to add an animated backdrop to your Feed text posts, making them more fun and expressive.

When you’re creating a new text post in Feed, tap the rainbow A icon to select from multiple still and animated backgrounds like falling leaves or ocean waves. We’ll also introduce seasonal backgrounds in the future so your posts can feel timely, festive, and a little more fun.

These new features make it easy to express yourself in fun and unique ways, so you can create something share-worthy to connect with your friends on Facebook.

Takeaways

• We’re introducing improvements to Facebook’s Feed, search, and navigation systems so you can easily find what you are looking for and dive deeper into your interests.
• We’re streamlining how you create content in the app with a redesign of how you create Stories and Feed posts, as well as how you interact with and share them.
• We’re also launching new ways to surface things in common with your friends directly on your profile and through search.

Facebook’s focus has always been to make it easy to stay close to the people and things you love. Today, we’re introducing improvements that help cut through the clutter so you can easily update your profile, find new content via search, and enjoy photos and videos in your Feed.

Smarter, Cleaner Feed and Streamlined Navigation

We’re making Feed simpler and more immersive, so that it’s easier to enjoy the content you care about most and connect with others over shared interests. Now when you post multiple photos, they’ll be arranged in a standardized grid. You can also like photos in Feed by double-tapping them, and see Feed content in full screen when you click into it.

Soon, the most-used Facebook features on your tab bar – like Reels, Friends, Marketplace, and Profile – will be front-and-center in your tab bar, so you can easily access them. You’ll also see a refreshed menu design and cleaner tab notifications to catch up on the latest updates across Facebook.

In addition, your search results will now show more content in a more immersive grid layout that supports all content types. We’re testing a new full-screen viewer that lets you explore different photo and video results without losing your place in search. We’ll look to expand this feature to more content and post types in the coming months.

We also want you to shape your Feed in the ways you want. You can give feedback as to why you don’t like a certain Facebook post or Reel so that the content you see moving forward is more relevant. We will continue to introduce new ways for you to shape your Feed and provide your algorithm feedback in the coming months.

Simplified Content Creation

We redesigned the way you can create Stories and Feed posts to make them more intuitive by putting the most popular tools like adding music and tagging friends where you can easily find them. The new interfaces make it easier to create great content with minimal distractions, and the advanced tools like colorful text backgrounds are still just a tap away. Audience and cross-posting settings are prominently displayed in the composer, making them easy to locate and adjust.

The commenting experience across Feed, Groups, and Reels has also been simplified with streamlined replies, prominent badging, and new pinning tools, so conversations are easier to follow. New and expanded controls will also help group admins and creators monitor the conversations happening on their content, and everyone can now anonymously flag comments that are irrelevant or don’t fit the spirit of the conversation.

Profiles Made for Real Connections

We’re also making it easier to find people with similar interests. When you update your profile, Facebook will help you discover friends who share your passions or who may have useful advice on shared interests by surfacing them within your profile.

For example, if you update your profile to show you’re into sourdough bread baking or planning a trip to Nashville, Facebook will show you friends who can give you sourdough starter tips or offer suggestions on the best local spots.

With this updated experience, people can get to know others on a deeper level — from where you work and live, to what TV shows you’re binging and what album you’re playing on repeat, to your hobbies, travel, and more. You can choose who sees what on your profile and whether to share these updates to your Feed.

These improvements are just the beginning in making Facebook less cluttered and easier to use, so you can focus on the people and interests you care the most about. Stay tuned for more updates in 2026!

Takeaways

• We’re making it easier to access 24/7 account support on Facebook and Instagram with new tools like a centralized support hub.
• In the past year, new account hacks decreased by more than 30% globally on Facebook and Instagram, and recovering an account is now faster and simpler with the help of AI — the relative success rate of hacked account recovery has increased by more than 30% in the US and Canada this year.
• We’ve also improved how to recover your account if you ever lose access with smarter, adaptive processes.

Your accounts are where your memories, conversations, and connections live. Protecting them is a responsibility we take seriously, which is why we’re always working to strengthen account security and make it easier for you to get the help you need. We also recognize that support hasn’t always met expectations, and we’re committed to improving by continually investing in better support experiences for everyone who uses our apps.

Today, we’re rolling out new, easier ways to get account support and sharing updates we’ve made to keep your Facebook and Instagram accounts even more secure through advancements in AI.

The Future of Always-On Support

Getting help with your account should be simple and accessible. That’s why we’re launching a new, centralized hub on Facebook and Instagram that brings support tools and options into one place. Within the support hub, you can now report an account issue, find quick answers with the help of Meta AI-powered search, and more. This is now rolling out globally on Facebook and Instagram, on iOS and Android operating systems.

We’re also testing an AI support assistant for instant, personalized help — whether you need to recover your account, update settings or manage your profile. This is new technology that we’re testing first on Facebook globally, and we’re exploring bringing it to our other apps in the future.

How AI Is Helping Us Protect Your Account

Our AI-powered security systems are getting better at protecting your account thanks to smarter AI and stronger security tools. In the past year, new account hacks decreased by more than 30% globally on Facebook and Instagram. Our account security systems work around the clock to spot and block potential threats — like hacking and phishing — by analyzing a wide range of signals in real time to distinguish legitimate users from attackers. These systems also block suspicious logins and flag compromised accounts before harm occurs, so you stay protected and can access your account without worry.

Over the last year, our advancements in AI have also helped us increasingly avoid disabling accounts by mistake better than ever before. And if an error does happen, our appeals process is now faster and easier, with fewer steps and AI assistance for eligible cases that helps you get a decision sooner. Our ongoing investments in our content enforcement systems mean they’re now more accurate — so you’re less likely to be affected by mistakes, and our community stays safer and more reliable for everyone.

Faster, Simpler Account Recovery

If you lose access to your account, getting back in should be quick and stress-free. We’ve updated the account recovery experience on Facebook and Instagram using AI so you can get help gaining access to your account.

What’s new:

• Easier-to-find recovery: You’ll now see the right recovery options at the right times, and we’re sending out improved SMS and email alerts about risky activity. If you still need help regaining access to your account, you can always visit this page to recover your account or Page.
• Trusted device recognition: Our systems recognize the device you usually use and familiar locations better than ever.
• Smarter, adaptive recovery flows: Our new account recovery experience adjusts to your particular situation with clearer guidance and simpler verification. We’ve also expanded recovery methods to include taking an optional selfie video to further verify your identity.

These improvements are already making a difference. This year, we’ve increased the relative success rate of hacked account recovery by more than 30% in the US and Canada.

Simple Steps to Stay Secure

While our AI systems work behind the scenes, we’ve launched even more safety features so you can take additional steps to protect your account:

• Security Checkup: Use the newly redesigned Security Checkup on Facebook to spot and fix potential security risks. You can also use this feature on Instagram.
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Set up 2FA on Facebook or Instagram, which requires a password and a simple code from your phone or an authenticator app to log in to your accounts.
• Passkeys: Sign in with your fingerprint, face, or device PIN for even stronger protection through passkeys, which we rolled out earlier this year on Facebook and Messenger.

We’re committed to keeping your accounts safe and making support simple so you can focus on what matters most: connecting with your communities. Stay tuned for more recovery and support tools coming in 2026.

‘Tis the Season: Find the Perfect Gift on the Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop

Takeaways

• This holiday season, Facebook is making it easier and more fun than ever to find the perfect gift with the launch of our first-ever Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop.
• Whether you’re shopping for fashion, collectibles, electronics, or something truly unique, Marketplace is where you can discover local gifts that feel personal at great prices.
• You can also get inspired by collections curated by your favorite creators, like Tay Beep Boop and April Lockhart, right within the shop.

During the 2024 holiday season, we saw an increase in young adults searching Facebook Marketplace categories like fashion, collectibles, and electronics compared to the rest of the year. To meet this growing demand and to celebrate the thrill of finding something unexpected at a great price, we’re launching our first-ever Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop, which features affordable items curated by real people.

We recently launched collections, a new way to create groups of Marketplace listings, invite friends to join, and shop together. To make it easy to discover unique gifts and share the experience with friends, you can find the following creator-curated collections within the Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop:

• Alex’s Gametime Gifts for the sports-lover on your list
• Holderness’ Family Finds for all the kid-friendly gifts
• iJustine’s Tech Collection for nostalgic tech presents
• FLIPPED FURNITURE FINDS! for the best holiday decor
• Tay’s Funky Holiday Gifts for fun, unique, and unexpected items
• April’s Vintage Gems for the fashionistas in your life

To find the Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop just go to the Marketplace tab in the Facebook app, tap the magnifying glass in the top-right corner to search, type in “Holiday Shop,” and tap to enter. If you’re not seeing the Marketplace Holiday Shop on your mobile device, make sure your Facebook app is updated to the latest version.

Facebook is continuing to boldly celebrate how we connect people this holiday season. Discover something truly special on the Facebook Marketplace Holiday Shop — where every gift tells a story and every connection goes a long way.

Facebook Marketplace is having a glow up — we’re evolving the Marketplace experience with new ways to connect over listings and Meta AI integrations that make it easier for people to shop for the things we know they want most: home decor, fashion, and vehicles.

Every day, one out of four Facebook young adult daily active users in the US and Canada come to Marketplace, and we’re making it easier for them to find what they’re looking for. Whether finding and furnishing their first apartment, buying their first car, or looking for a perfect first-date outfit, our newest updates will help make their Marketplace experience even more fun, useful, and social.

Shop Together With Collections and Collaborative Buying

We’re launching collections, a new feature that enables you to create groups of Marketplace listings and invite friends to join. Simply save a listing, start a new collection, and choose whether to make it public or private. Add friends to your collection and share updates via Feed, Messenger, WhatsApp, and more.

We’re also testing collaborative buying, so you can invite a friend to join your chat with the seller, making it easier to coordinate pickup, negotiate prices, and get answers to your questions — together.

Personalize Your Shopping With Reactions and Comments

You can now react and comment directly on Marketplace listings, helping others learn about item quality and discover unique finds. And when you like an item, Marketplace will learn what you’re interested in, so you’ll see more items aligned with your preferences, making your shopping experience even more personalized and relevant.

Shop Smarter With AI Insights

We’re also testing a new feature to make it easier to ask the right questions when you’re making a purchase — whether it’s a car, furniture, clothing, or anything you find on Marketplace. When you start a chat with a seller, you’ll see a “Suggested questions to ask” button pop up. Tap it, and Meta AI will use the details from the listing and your conversation to suggest questions you might want to ask the seller.

Vehicles are among the top five searches for young adults on Marketplace. That’s why we’re beginning to test a new AI-powered feature designed to make buying cars easier and more informative. When you visit a vehicle listing, you’ll see AI-powered insights that can gather everything from engine options and safety ratings to transmission type, seating, cargo capacity, reviews, and price insights — all in one place.

Expanded Inventory With eBay and Poshmark

Young adults are increasingly turning to Marketplace for vintage fashion — there are over 200 million fashion items listed on Facebook Marketplace in the US, making it the second largest category after home decor.

Earlier this year, we began integrating eBay inventory into Marketplace followed by Poshmark to give people more options across categories like fashion and electronics. Partner listings are marked with an icon on the listing image, and are integrated throughout your Marketplace feed so you’ll see them while you’re browsing. You can also see the listing and seller’s information on the Marketplace product details page, and when you’re ready to buy, you’ll be taken to the partner’s site for checkout.

Improved Shipping Experience

We’re rolling out an improved checkout experience, providing you with a more transparent and seamless process for shipped purchases. Buyers will now see total costs — including shipping and tax — upfront, and receive notifications as order status changes.

This ensures clarity at every step and makes it easier to buy from sellers no matter their locations.

Stay tuned for more updates in 2026 as we continue to improve the Facebook Marketplace experience for both buyers and sellers.

Facebook Groups: Converting Private to Public

Facebook Groups have long been a place where people connect over shared interests and experiences. People turn to groups to seek advice, connect with real people, and navigate life’s milestones. Whether it’s joining a city newcomers’ meet-up, finding a local running club, or connecting over your favorite artist, groups make these interactions easier.

We know that group admins want more tools to grow and manage their communities, and we’re listening to your feedback. Today, we’re starting to roll out a new update that gives private group admins the option to change a group from private to public. This unlocks new opportunities for growth and connection while keeping member privacy and previously shared content protected.

For Admins: How to Convert a Private Group to Public

Group admins can now make their private groups public, making it easier for people to discover and join conversations that matter to them. This change can be made directly from the group’s settings page on Facebook. Converting to public means the group’s new content will be visible to everyone, so before making any changes, consider what’s best for your community and seek feedback from fellow admins, moderators, and members. Once you have converted your group, keep members informed by sharing a post about the update.

Here’s what to expect if you choose to convert your group:

• All other admins will be notified. When a group admin changes their private group’s privacy setting to public, all other admins of the group will get a notification about the upcoming change.
• You’ll have time to review the change. There is a three-day window to review and cancel the group conversion; if no admin cancels, the group will become public at the end of the review window.

For more details about converting groups, visit the help center here.

For Group Members: How We’re Protecting Your Privacy and Content

Your privacy is our priority. That’s why we’ve built in safeguards for members of groups. Here are some of the ways we’re protecting your privacy, and some information for group members to keep in mind:

• Past content stays private. All content, including posts, comments, and reactions, shared while the group was private will only be visible to those who were members of the group before it became public, as well as admins and moderators.
• Member lists are protected. After a group goes public, only admins and moderators can see the member list, protecting the privacy of group members.
• New content is public. Any new posts you share in the public group, including comments and reactions on new content, will be visible to anyone, including people who aren’t on Facebook. This has always been the case for public groups, allowing you to reach a broader audience and connect with new people beyond the original group.
• You’ll be notified. When a group changes from private to public, all members are notified about the change. Plus, when posting or commenting for the first time in a converted public group, you’ll see a reminder that your post or comment will be public, helping you share with confidence.
• You can check your privacy status any time. You’ll also see a globe icon when posting in a public group. This icon means your content will be visible to anyone.
• Groups can be made private again. If a public group changes back to private, only people approved by an admin can join. Once someone is approved by an admin, they’ll be able to see what’s shared in the group, including content from when it was previously private, and the membership list. This is how private groups work today, so your privacy stays protected.

Remember, if anonymous participation is enabled in your group, you have the flexibility to decide how you want to show up — choose to post or comment using your name, anonymously, or now, with a new option to choose a nickname that matches you in the moment.

Today’s update helps admins to grow their groups, foster deeper connections, and spark more conversations across shared interests. Learn more about the differences between private and public groups here.

Takeaways

• We’re introducing a new Facebook feature that surfaces photos and videos and suggests fun edits and collages, making it easier to share your favorite moments.
• Suggestions are only shown to you – you decide whether they’re shared and with whom.
• This feature requires opting-in and can be turned off at any time.

We’ve rolled out a new Facebook feature designed to make reminiscing and sharing your favorite moments easier and more fun than ever before. This opt-in feature suggests the best photos and videos from your camera roll and creates fun collages and edits, making it simple to share unique content on Facebook and Messenger.

Creative and Effortless Sharing

Many people capture life’s moments but rarely share them – whether it’s because they don’t think their photos or videos are ‘shareworthy,’ or because they simply don’t have time to create something special. With your permission and the help of AI, our new feature enables Facebook to automatically surface hidden gems – those memorable moments that get lost among screenshots, receipts, and random snaps – and edit them to save or share.

This new feature enhances your best photos, offers creative edits to make your content stand out, and creates fun collages and videos to help you connect with the friends and family you choose to share with. No design skills required – this feature does the heavy lifting, so you can focus on sharing the fun. All suggestions are private to you and you decide what to share, when to share, and with whom.

We don’t use media from your camera roll to improve AI at Meta, unless you choose to edit this media with our AI tools, or share. Head to the Meta Privacy Policy to learn more.

We’ve now rolled out the option to use this feature to people in the US and Canada. Sharing recommendations currently appear in Stories and Feed, and you can always find more ready-to-share content in Memories (a Facebook bookmark). You can manage or disable the feature anytime in your Facebook camera roll settings.

We will also begin to test in additional countries in the coming months.

Introducing Local Jobs on Facebook

• We’re introducing new ways for young adults to find local entry-level job opportunities on Facebook.
• Find job listings via a dedicated tab on Facebook Marketplace or across Groups and Pages.
• Employers can easily create a job listing through Facebook Marketplace, their Page, or a Group.

Starting today, we’re bringing jobs on Facebook back, making it easier for people in the US to find and inquire about local jobs. We’ve always been about connecting with people, whether through shared interests or key life events. Now, if you’re looking for entry-level, trade, and service industry employment in your community, Facebook can help you connect with local people and small businesses who are hiring. Jobs on Facebook are public and visible to all adults 18 years and older.

Discover Reels From Around the World With Meta AI Translation
October 9, 2025

Takeaways
• Meta AI translates, dubs, and lip syncs reels on Facebook and Instagram, so you can enjoy reels from around the world.
• Translations are now supported in English, Spanish, Hindi, and Portuguese – with more languages on the way.
• Translating reels is a free and easy way for creators to reach some of our largest Reels markets.

Update on January 16, 2026 at 6:00AM PT:
AI-powered translations for Reels are starting to roll out in more languages, including Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, and Kannada, on Instagram. These new additions build on our existing language support for English, Hindi, Portuguese, and Spanish. See additional information here and here.

Originally published on October 9, 2025 at 9:05AM PT:
Imagine discovering a reel that makes you laugh, inspires you, or teaches you something new, no matter where it was created or what language it was filmed in. That’s the future we’re building at Meta.

In August, we expanded access to translations for bidirectional English and Spanish to creators on Facebook and Instagram, so that more creators can seamlessly translate their reels with Meta AI. Today, we’re excited to announce we’re adding two more languages, Hindi and Portuguese, making it easier than ever to watch reels from creators around the world – with more languages coming soon.

Since our announcement of translations with Meta AI in 2024, we’ve been working toward making content more accessible for everyone, and today’s expansion marks another step toward our goal.

Inspired by Creators, Built for Community
Many creators want to reach global audiences, and their feedback helped shape our work on translation features. With Meta AI, creators can now seamlessly translate and dub reels, breaking down language barriers so they can share their work with more viewers worldwide. With multi-lingual translations between English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hindi, creators can now share their content across some of the largest Reels markets on both Instagram and Facebook.

Translating reels with Meta AI is free, and is accessible to Facebook creators with 1,000 followers or more and to all public Instagram accounts in countries where Meta AI is available.

How Translations With Meta AI Work
Meta AI mimics the sound and tone of a creator’s voice to translate reels, so the end result is content that feels authentically like the creator, just in another language. A creator can also choose to enable the lip syncing feature, which syncs the translated audio to the creator’s mouth’s movements, creating a more natural viewing experience.

Control Your Viewing Experience
Your experience matters to us, which is why we’ve built controls that let you decide which languages you see. Every translated reel is clearly labeled with Translated with Meta AI, so you’ll always know when you’re watching translated content. You can also choose to turn translations on or off, or to watch reels in their original language – simply select Don’t translate in the audio and language section of the three-dot settings menu. Learn how to manage your language preferences on Facebook and Instagram.

Translations with Meta AI is just one way we’re bringing the best content to audiences and finding innovative new ways to connect people around the world.

Takeaways

• We’ve upgraded Facebook’s recommendations engine so it learns your interests quicker and shows you newer and more relevant reels.
• New friend bubbles show you which reels and Feed posts your friends like and make it easy to start a chat instantly about what you’re both interested in.
• On some reels, you’ll have AI-powered suggestions, making it easier to find similar reels and explore the things you’re interested in.

The magic of Facebook has always been in connecting with others. That’s why we’re launching features that make it even easier to connect with friends over the content you care about. We’ve upgraded our recommendations engine, so you’ll get to see more of the content you’re interested in, and we’re rolling out several features that give you more control over the reels you see and more ways to interact with your friends while watching them.

Our Recommendations Are Getting Smarter

We’ve invested in improving Facebook’s recommendations and product experience, creating a smarter recommendations engine that understands your interests faster. As a result, we’re showing you more of what you want to see, whether it’s quick clips or longer videos, creator vlogs, or DIY tips. As we shared in July, time spent watching videos on Facebook has expanded more than 20% year-over-year in the US.

Facebook continues to be the home for all types of video, and our recommendations will help ensure you see fresher content in the formats you enjoy most, regardless of length. If you prefer longer videos, you’re in luck – reels over a minute make up a quarter of reels produced by creators with over 10,000 followers and over 50% of watch time on Facebook.

Our recommendation engine is also now surfacing 50% more reels from creators published that day, so you see the newest content faster.

We’re also making it easier for you to tell us when you don’t like what you see. You can tap “Not Interested” on a reel or flag a comment that doesn’t fit the spirit of the conversation and the recommendations engine will respond to these signals, making your reels even more personalized. Plus, we’ve made updates to the Save feature to make it simpler to collect your favorite reels and posts in one place. You’ll help Facebook fine-tune your recommendations with each save, resulting in a more tailored experience that we’ve seen lead to increased watch time globally.

More Ways to Interact With Reels and Friends

We’re rolling out friend bubbles on Reels and Feed so you can spot which reels and posts your friends have liked. When you see a reel with a friend bubble in the corner, you can tap that bubble to jump into a private chat with your friends. So far, we’ve seen people enjoy bubbles as a way to discover what their friends are into, catch up over shared interests, and maybe even learn something new.

Seeing likes from your friends has always been core to the Facebook experience, and we are continuing to build features – like bubbles – that bring us back to our roots.

We’re also making it easier to explore your interests and get inspired by others on Facebook. Now, you can dive deeper into your interests with AI-powered suggested search on select reels to discover more content about a topic you love, all without leaving the reels player.

These updates are just the beginning — expect even more ways to personalize, connect, and have fun with Reels in the future.

Dive in and see how Facebook is making your experience more about you and your friends.
