New data indicates that use of Meta AI's mobile app for iOS and Android has seen a significant increase. According to a new analysis from market intelligence provider Similarweb, the app's daily active users across both platforms jumped to 2.7 million as of October 17, up from around 775,000 just four weeks ago.

A Facebook feature that gives Meta AI the ability to suggest edits to photos stored on your phone's camera roll, but haven't yet been shared, is now rolling out to all users in the U.S. and Canada. The company announced on Friday that users can choose to opt in to receive these sharing suggestions, which will then prompt them to post photos to their Facebook Feed and Stories with the AI edits. First launched as a test over the summer, Facebook's app pops up a permission dialog box requesting access to "allow cloud processing" so users can get "creative ideas made for you from your camera roll." This box explains that the feature could offer ideas like collages, recaps, AI restyling, birthday themes, and more for the end user.

Of course talking to Meta AI remains a key way of interacting with the glasses, but Meta hopes that adding the visual elements will enhance the chatbot experience. For example, live speech captioning and language translation is still switched on by voice-but with Meta Ray-Ban Display, you can see the translations and captions appearing in real time on the glasses rather than on your phone's screen.
