Facebook never tires of trying new ways to keep users engaged. It enabled a business page test and a redesigned layout for the desktop. It added Reels and Rooms on the top Stories panel. Today, Facebook tests Stories-like bars on iOS.
Again, Matt Navarra, a social media expert, tweets the update. Facebook users will now see a new Stories-like bar on top of their iOS timelines. Tapping on a profile image will lead them to the latest feeds and posts of the Facebook user. It makes it easier to keep the users updated with their Facebook friends and followings.
