Meta released a creative platform called Pocket on Thursday. The app lets users make and share AI-generated interactive items named Gizmos, which can be tapped, swiped, tilted, or manipulated with device sensors. Gizmos range from abstract art to mini-games. Users create them with text prompts and can adjust colors manually.
Pocket is available on Google Play but cannot be downloaded yet. It requires logging in with a Meta account. The Verge noted the app closely resembles Gizmo, an app from Atma Sciences; Meta hired engineers from Atma Sciences and obtained a non-exclusive license to its technology in March 2026. Interactions with Gizmos will be used to improve Meta's AI.
