Press release:
US social media conglomerate Meta has announced the rollout of the Meta AI app, a dedicated place to keep track and multi-task across a range of daily AI interactions—all in one place.
Starting in the US, with updates to follow across the rest of the world, this is the first step in introducing people to a more social, intuitive and personalised AI experience – reflective of your world and your experiences. The new app will bring AI interactions to the forefront - making them easy to track, control and manage all in one place.
From today in the MENA region, people will be able to find and download the Meta AI app for free on App Stores for iOS and Android. The app will open to a Meta AI chat homepage – where you can interact with your AI assistant and toggle between additional tabs across the app - including:
Discover Tab: A social feed to share and explore how others are using AI with others. You can see the best prompts people are sharing or remix them to make them your own.
History Tab: Storing your past conversations and prompts used with MetaAI— so you can pick up where you left off.
Devices Tab: a dedicated tab to manage additional Meta AI devices, such as Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, including your image gallery and device settings.
In addition – here's a look at what's launching in the US from today – with a view to bringing these features to more markets around the world over time. Please note, they will not be available in MENA at launch.
An AI built for conversation:
MetaAI will include an improved voice function, allowing for back-and-forth conversations. Starting as a demo, full-duplex speech technology will allow people to experience for the first time a full-duplex natural voice component—feeling more like a telephone conversation— as a glimpse into the future of AI experiences.
Social AI discovery
The Meta AI app will include the launch of a new 'Discovery' feed to share and explore how others are using AI with others. You can see the best prompts people are sharing or remix them to make them your own.
A personalised experience:
Built with Llama 4, the MetaAI app in the US and CA will include memory and personalization— to make AI interactions more tailored to your world. You can ask Meta AI to remember certain things about you (like that you love to travel and learn new languages), and it will provide responses and recommendations unique to your preferences.
A Cross-Platform Companion:
The Meta AI app will be a central companion to your interactions with Meta AI across Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, as well as Meta.ai on the web. When logged in to your Meta Account, the 'History' tab will allow you to pick up where you left off across your AI glasses, the Meta AI app, and the web, making it easy to switch from your desktop to device without interruption.
Controls Tailored To You:
Everyone is experimenting with AI differently and finding their preferences – controls in the app will allow people to toggle from voice, to text seamlessly, as well as choose the voices and functions they want to experience – allowing people to tailor their experience and adapt to their environment.
