Popular social media platform Facebook has been on a roll and has been working relentlessly to make the website more exciting and engaging for its users. In yet another major revamp, Facebook is working towards making your news feed more newsy with a new layout. Reports suggest that Facebook may soon add a news section to its Android and iOS smartphone apps. If launched, this new feature will be the biggest thing to happen to Facebook’s news feed since it was first introduced. For this, Facebook is testing a new layout for mobile phones which will contain several news sections, with topics including World & US, Sports, and Food. The main news feed (default) will however remain the same.
The news became apparent on Friday morning when multiple screenshots of the new look went viral on Twitter.
