Facebook Unveils Streamlined Design: Major Interface Overhaul Coming Spring

The new Facebook design aims to be more modern and less cluttered. According to the technology website CNET, this new version of Facebook will highlight content and communities thanks, in particular, to better separation of content. To please its users even more, Facebook is trading its blue bar for a more streamlined home page, with fewer panels and therefore more readable.

With this new configuration, the web version of Facebook will now have three panels instead of four. The left one will display games, events, memories and others, without listing all the items. In the center, we find the news feed with larger videos and photos, and finally, on the right, the list of contacts. Of course, the Facebook mobile app will also benefit from the new design of the social network, the same media reports.

Facebook is also welcoming the biggest new feature announced, namely the dark mode. While this feature is highly anticipated on mobile, it will also make its appearance on the web version of Facebook, the same media specifies.

This approach by Facebook is a response the American company is trying to give to the criticisms of its users who blamed it for focusing too much on its app to the detriment of its website.
