Meta brings Pocket, an app that lets you vibe-code and share games, to US users

Meta is widening access to Pocket, its experimental vibe-coding game app, and the rollout is now reaching all users in the U.S. The app showed up quietly in Brazil last month first, but it’s now moving beyond that test market.

Pocket lets people create small interactive games from AI prompts. Meta calls them “gizmos,” and they’re built to react to touch and phone tilts, play sound effects, and even use clips from songs you like. The app can also pull in photos from your camera roll or access your camera, which gives these little games a more personal feel than a plain text prompt ever could.

Once made, the games can be posted to a scrollable feed. They can also live on a user’s profile, where other people can save them, remix them, or repost them. That makes Pocket less like a toy tucked away on your phone and more like a small social network built around AI-made playthings.

The release fits neatly into Meta’s broader push to make AI creation tools feel ordinary. The company has already shipped AI-generated images in Meta AI, AI videos in its Vibes app, and a string of other standalone mobile apps in recent months. Zuckerberg has said AI software development is making it faster for Meta to test and ship new ideas, and he told analysts on the July earnings call that the company expects to build out more apps and use its recommendation systems to scale them. Pocket now joins that pile, alongside Instants, Forum, Seller, an AI bedtime stories experiment, and a Meta AI app for Mac.
