Meta has quietly released a new application called Pocket on both the App Store and Google Play. This software enables users to generate small, interactive apps and games through AI prompts. It serves as a creative platform for making and sharing gizmos, which are the interactive experiences the company uses to describe its outputs. The interface includes a scrollable feed where users can play with gizmos created by others. This launch follows Meta’s acquisition of the team behind the vibe-coded gaming platform Gizmo earlier this year. Screenshots from Google Play show strong similarities between Pocket and the original Gizmo app, which remains listed in the store. Alessandro Paluzzi, a reverse engineer who specialises in spotting new features, first noticed the release. Data from Appfigures confirms Pocket appeared on June 29, 2026, though download numbers are currently unavailable due to its recent arrival. Meta has not commented on the launch yet.
The release signals Meta’s continued effort to integrate AI creation tools into mainstream usage. This move extends previous initiatives involving AI-generated images and videos across its social platforms and video-editing app. Gizmo previously achieved 635K lifetime installs with a 98% positive sentiment rating. Because Meta has not officially announced Pocket’s debut, the product is likely still in its initial experimentation phase.
* Pocket launched on June 29, 2026, without prior announcement.
* The app inherits functionality from the acquired Gizmo team.
* Current download statistics remain unverified.
