Facebook is testing a new design for some celebrity and business pages in its mobile app. The social media giant said on Wednesday that the experimental update removed the "Like" button and the number of likes on the page to focus more on the number of followers.
The new layout, which TechCrunch has already reported, should make it easier for Facebook users to display the reach of the page more precisely. The number of followers indicates the number of people who receive the page's posts in their feed. Users can like a page and follow it again later.

Facebook redesigned its website and mobile app in 2019 to give it a more minimalist look. The new experimental design for Pages seems to take a similar approach, as important information is easier to see. The test is reportedly now running on Facebook's mobile app, although it is unclear whether the test will be more widely available.
