It looks like another app is about to join the Meta family of apps as the social media giant quietly readies a new experimental release. Apparently, this new app is called "Pocket," and it"s basically a creative platform where people share vibe-coded mini-games.
The app is already listed on the Google Play Store, but there"s no download button or official announcement from Meta detailing the app"s release schedule or what countries the platform will be available in at launch. Based on the description on the app"s Play Store listing, users will explore a feed of "gizmos" from creators worldwide that react to touch inputs and phone tilts.
These gizmos play sound effects while pulling photos directly from your camera roll. Some advanced designs even use the phone"s camera and reason about their physical surroundings. The platform also lets you build these toys by simply writing out descriptions in a text editor, saving favorite designs to custom playlists, and interacting through likes or comments.
Business Insider noted that Meta set the groundwork for this release in March 2025 when the company hired the startup team behind Atma Sciences Inc., a group that previously built a popular iOS app called Gizmo. Meta also acquired a non-exclusive license to the startup"s proprietary technology during that transition.
Pocket might remind you a bit of the Meta AI app, which Meta launched in April last year, specifically its Vibes feed, a TikTok-style stream of fully AI-generated videos. Users can scroll through that endless video feed, leave comments, share clips with friends, and even "remix" the content by modifying the underlying prompts or swapping out styles on the fly.
Vibes has now been spun off into its own app, where Meta introduced several features to this standalone version. Users can now access a lip-sync tool that matches character speech to custom dialogue. The company also launched a dedicated web interface at Vibes.ai for advanced editing, alongside a feature where you upload your likeness to insert yourself directly into AI-generated scenes.
