Facebook has updated its mobile app. Specifically, its main interface has been redesigned for a cleaner and clearer look. Broadly speaking, you can <\/span>say goodbye to Facebook\u2019s iconic blue bars and squares.<\/b><\/p>\n

In addition, comments have also changed and now look like conversation messages, just like on Facebook Messenger.<\/span> Each comment is found within its own gray bubble <\/b>so it\u2019s easier to see who has said what.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>\u201cLike,\u201d \u201cComment\u201d and \u201cShare\u201d<\/b> icons now have a more streamlined\u00a0look. Also, they\u2019ve been made larger so it\u2019s easier to \u201cget it right\u201d when clicking them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here you\u2019ve got <\/span>a before and after shot:<\/b><\/p>\n

On their\u00a0Medium<\/a> blog Facebook said, \u201cWe did not want to just \u2018fiddle at the edges,\u2019\u201d<\/b>\u00a0As well as including other minor details the social media giant pointed out that,<\/span>\u00a0\u201cWe wanted to make something that billions of people use every day less frustrating.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

More specifically, Facebook made all these changes by asking these <\/span>questions:<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cHow might we <\/span>improve News Feed<\/b> to be easier to read and distinguish key areas of content?\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cHow might we make <\/span>the content itself more engaging and immersive<\/b>?\u201d<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cHow might we make it <\/span>easier to leave feedback<\/b>?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Facebook has made it clear that <\/span>nothing is ever \u201cdone\u201d<\/b> regarding its products. It is a constantly evolving process and its team is always looking for areas of improvement.<\/span><\/p>\n

If your Facebook feed looks the same as always, remember that this is a gradual update. <\/span>It\u2019ll be implemented in your country\/region in a matter of time.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
