Meta has soft-launched a new mobile app called Pocket on iOS and Android, designed to let users "vibe-code" and share their own generative AI minigames and "gizmos." Discovered by reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi and confirmed by AppFigures to have been available since June 29, 2026, the app is not yet available in the US and has not been officially announced by Meta. The app's listing and Play Store shortcode "com.facebook.gizmo" suggest it may be built by the team behind Gizmo, an interactive AI prompt startup that Meta reportedly hired earlier this year.
