After Clicking the Facebook Beta, it changed the design of my Facebook, and to my surprise, I have never expected such a huge change.

On this page, you will find a welcome message from Facebook saying, " Welcome to a fresh and simpler Facebook. We've made it easy for you to do what you want."

Now you can share a text post, images, videos, gifs, tag friends, location, feelings, etc.

Under posts, you will find the two different view options, such as;

  • Facebook list view
  • Facebook grid view.
Facebook post grid view is something that you will see on Facebook for the first time.

Final Words:

During my Facebook Beta design review, I have found that the new design is quite fast to expect when you click on the messenger option.

The new Facebook design is appealing, and it also attracts those who are bored with the old Facebook interface.
