I'm also a yoga instructor, and have been actively teaching group and private classes for nearly a decade.īefore becoming an analyst in 2020, I spent eight years as a reporter covering consumer tech news.

I unbox, set up, test, and review a wide range of consumer tech products from my home in Florida, often with the help of my pitbull Bradley. I'm PCMag's expert on fitness and smart home technology, and I've written more than 6,000 articles and reviews in the 10-plus years I've been here. Meanwhile, Facebook also this week announced a couple updates designed to cut down on clickbait articles appearing in people's News Feeds.

' These small changes are designed to make Messenger simpler for you – to help you get to your contacts quickly, jump into your conversations where you left off, start new chats, and stay up to date,' Facebook wrote.įacebook said it plans to roll out these changes worldwide on iOS and Android this week. If you missed a call, you'll see a red dot next to Calls. When you receive a new message, for instance, you'll see a red dot next to the Home button. When there's something new to check out in one of these tabs, Facebook will put a red dot there to let you know. It now has tabs for Home, Calls, the in-app Camera, and People and Games. The bottom bar is also getting a refresh. ' By tapping or swiping to these tabs, you can quickly navigate to where you need to go and get messaging faster,' Facebook wrote in a post (Opens in a new window) on the Messenger page. The social network is reorganizing the Messenger home screen in an effort to make it ' your central hub for connecting with the people and businesses you want to in whatever way you prefer.' Messenger Day posts still feature prominently, but are now located below three new tabs at the top of the home screen: Messages, Active, and Groups. So, Facebook is giving Messenger a revamp. Once Facebook rolled out its Snapchat Stories clone inside Messenger, the app started to feel a little busy and disorganized.
