    Facebook is experimenting an Instagram-like Explore button and a Reels video tab

    A full-screen player will be expanded to accommodate the latter.

    Meta held a very large in-person event in Austin recently and announced significant improvements that are expected to be made on Facebook. At the moment, it is testing a tab provisionally called Explore and is also working on another whose title is video.

    Let’s talk about the Explore tab first, shall we? If you have ever scrolled through the Instagram app, you will have an idea of how this will work. This tab will feature, “a lot of different types of content which is relevant to you”.

    Meta claims that the content recommendation systems developed centuries ago ‘not only provides mindless entertainment, but content that helps you further explore your hobbies and interests.’ Or let’s just hope The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom does not give me anything other than information about ways to travel the wilds. Anyhow, the new Explore tab is still undergoing trials and therefore it might take quite long before it is accessible to the members of the public.

    To make room for Reels, the video tab is also expected to undergo extensive changes. This page will now become a repository for all video content present in Facebook. Where content will be pushed to a screen-filling video player allowing users to “as one fluid experience, watch the best short-form, long-form and live videos.”

    In the ‘ ‘near weeks’ ‘, there will be availability of the new video tab on devices of the users. Since this announcement was made alongside data indicating that 60% of young adults on Facebook, spend their time watching videos and reels, it’s not a surprise that Meta is trying to target these younger audiences too.

    Yes, I have some news for you is how I would address Meta. My father is not a young adult, yet he is already on Facebook the whole day watching films and going through Reels. For that reason, this augmented video tab will be useful to every one of us.
