Meta Unveils Pocket: A New AI Gaming App

Meta is stepping up its game with the quiet release of Pocket, a new app that lets you whip up mini-games and apps using AI prompts. This matters because it shows Meta’s continuing dive into AI-driven creativity, promising us fresh ways to play and create.

Pocket is the brainchild of Meta’s acquisition of Gizmo’s team, a vibe-coded gaming platform. Imagine a creative playground where you can not only build but also explore interactive experiences—Meta calls them ‘gizmos’. The app offers a scrollable feed, much like its predecessor Gizmo, where you can dive into gizmos crafted by others. Curious about how Sony is handling its shift to digital?

According to Alessandro Paluzzi, a reverse-engineering pro, the app popped up on the scene on June 29, 2026. It’s available on both the App Store and Google Play, though it’s still in its early stages, with no download stats yet. Meta hasn’t made a big splash with an official announcement, suggesting Pocket is still in its testing phase. Meanwhile, Gizmo has already racked up impressive numbers with 635,000 installs and a whopping 98% positive sentiment rating. If you’re into tech and apps, you might find Android Auto’s new updates interesting too!

Keep your eyes peeled for updates from Meta, as Pocket might soon evolve into something bigger and better. In the meantime, why not explore some great deals on gaming gear to enhance your gaming setup?
