Event Summary

Meta Platforms has quietly launched a new AI-powered app called Mozilla Corporation — Pocket (service), which allows users to create small interactive games and experiences, referred to as 'gizmos,' using simple text prompts. The app, available on Apple Inc. and Alphabet Inc. since June 29, 2026, also features a scrollable feed for users to browse and share creations. Mozilla Corporation — Pocket (service) is a direct result of Meta Platforms' earlier acquisition of the team behind Gizmo, a similar vibe-coded gaming platform. This launch aligns with Meta Platforms' broader strategy to integrate AI creation tools into its products, following the introduction of AI features in Meta Platforms, Vibes, and Editing. The app's debut was first reported by reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi and confirmed by app intelligence firm Appfigures. While Meta Platforms has not officially announced Mozilla Corporation — Pocket (service), it is seen as an experimental phase to explore AI-generated interactive content and expand user engagement.
