Facebook continues to test its new design with more users on Android
Some of the users of the social network Facebook on terminals Androidare being surprised with a new design of this application. And it is that the social network company continues to test a new aspect that every time seems to reach more people A change in the style of this application that could be close of its generalization, modifying the design, distribution of functions and even the colors of Facebook in mobile platforms.
Apparently more and more users are receiving this new design from Facebook in the form of update A novelty that appears to the user randomly and inevitably. And it seems that it is not possible to return to the old design when the user has already updated and accommodated the new one. An aspect that Facebook has not yet confirmed as definitive, but with the new cases that are appearing it seems like the new image that is about to reach the general public .
This version of Facebook that some users are receiving is undoubtedly reminiscent of the partner application Facebook Messenger And it is that it bets on simplicity in terms of colors and lines, avoiding volumes and elements that do not contribute anything.All this with a color white of the most infertile color that could even be branded as bland, except for the blue bar at the top and the different icons, which add some color. Something that seems focused on giving absolute prominence to the contents that appear on the rest of the screen.
The design not only tweaks the colors and lines of this still-seemingly experimental version of Facebook It also modifies the location of buttons, tabs and options This way they now appear five buttons at the top instead of the usual three tabs and notification buttons. The first allows you to consult the latest news or the user's usual wall. The second button allows you to access the invitation page of friendship that previously appeared in the bar top blue.The third collects the conversations or direct messages, allowing the grouping of the group chats as and as it does now Facebook Messenger The fourth, for its part, is the same icon as the notificationsthat has been moved to the same bar next to the fifth and last button that accesses the user profile
A unification that moves the old Status, Photo, and I'm Here tabs for posting new messages to the bottom. Of course, in a bar that now disappears when the user scrolls through each section to allow offering the highest percentage of screen possible.
Everything else remains unchanged, with no modifications to its functions or changes beyond what appears to be purely aestheticA new version designed to adapt to the new lines seen in iOS 7 and other applications, but that can be bland in what has been seen so far in this version of Facebook We will have to wait to see if this design ends up being imposed or not it is more than an experiment by the company of the social network most massive in the world.
