Meta Launches AI Application Pocket: Create and Share Mini-Games with Text Commands

July 3 news, Meta has quietly launched an experimental AI application called Pocket. Users can generate interactive 'gizmos' (small apps or mini-games) simply by entering text commands and share or try them out in a TikTok-like scrolling feed. This application is the result of Meta's acquisition of the Gizmo team in early 2026. The original Gizmo was a vibe-coding application that had garnered over 600,000 downloads. The launch of Pocket signifies Meta's efforts to bring AI creation tools into mainstream social entertainment. Previously, Meta had introduced AI drawing features in the Meta AI app, AI-generated video application Vibes, and integrated an AI assistant into the editing app Edits.
