Facebook Launches A New Meme Making App

The Whale application, however, is only available in Canada for now. Facebook is now testing the app and the response it gets from the users. The application is versatile. You can easily edit your own pictures or use one from your own collection or library. Also, you will be able to share the meme created on Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook messenger as well.

The meme-making app was created by the new product development team at Facebook. The whole department is basically dedicated to producing and making experimental applications for its users. The other two new applications created by the team are Bump and Aux. The purpose here is to identify people’s intent and then produce suitable applications. Recently, Facebook has released a new feature on Instagram called Reels. The feature is similar to the ‘viral content generator’ called TikTok. For now, the new feature is only available in Brazil. And is still being tested for its response. TikTok has no plans to slow down. The application is one of the most popular mediums for meme-making and sharing. Also, TikTok was able to garner 500 million new users on its platform. For now, the application ensues 1.5 billion active users!

However, Facebook still reigns as thesocial media giant. But recently, it has been observed that Facebook is releasing applications targeted to a younger demographic. Many other new applications introduced have failed. Such as Moments- a new way to manage your pictures and tag friends via facial recognition. However, the app shut down after a mediocre response. Another app called thelife stage was released for youngsters. Lifestage was basically considered similar to Snapchat. They marketed it specifically for teenagers. Unfortunately, the app couldn’t hold attention for long.

There is still some skepticism surrounding Whale. Especially since Facebook released a similar feature to TikTok just last month. Let’s see how much has Facebook learned from its mistakes!
