Meta 低调推出“氛围感”游戏应用 Pocket
Meta is getting into gaming with the launch of a new app called Pocket, which allows people to generate small, interactive apps and games using AI prompts. The software, a result of Meta’s acquisition of the team at the vibe-coded gaming platform Gizmo earlier this year, describes itself as “a creative platform for making and sharing gizmos,” which is what the interactive experiences are called. It also offers a scrollable feed where you can play with gizmos others have made.
Meta 正通过推出一款名为 Pocket 的新应用进军游戏领域，该应用允许用户利用 AI 提示词生成小型互动应用和游戏。这款软件是 Meta 今年早些时候收购“氛围感”（vibe-coded）游戏平台 Gizmo 团队后的成果。它将自己描述为“一个用于制作和分享 gizmos 的创意平台”，而这些互动体验就被称为“gizmos”。它还提供了一个可滚动的动态信息流，用户可以在其中体验他人制作的 gizmos。
Based on the app’s screenshots in Google Play, there are many similarities to Gizmo’s original app, which is still listed. Like Pocket, Gizmo also offers a way to use written AI prompts to build small, interactive experiences, and it includes a discovery feed. Alessandro Paluzzi, a reverse engineer and regular spotter of new apps and features, first noticed the app’s launch this morning and published a Play Store screenshot of the app on X.
根据 Google Play 中的应用截图显示，它与目前仍在架的 Gizmo 原版应用有许多相似之处。与 Pocket 一样，Gizmo 也提供通过书面 AI 提示词构建小型互动体验的功能，并包含一个发现信息流。逆向工程师兼新应用与功能挖掘常客 Alessandro Paluzzi 今早首次发现了该应用的发布，并在 X 上发布了该应用在 Play Store 的截图。
According to data from app intelligence provider Appfigures, however, Pocket was first launched on June 29, 2026 on the App Store and Google Play. (Because of its newness, the firm can’t tell if it’s yet to see any downloads.)
然而，根据应用情报提供商 Appfigures 的数据，Pocket 实际上于 2026 年 6 月 29 日首次在 App Store 和 Google Play 上架。（由于该应用发布时间尚短，该公司目前还无法确定其下载量情况。）

Other outlets, including Business Insider and Investing.com, have also reported on Paluzzi’s discovery. Meta has not yet responded to a request for comment.
包括《商业内幕》（Business Insider）和 Investing.com 在内的其他媒体也报道了 Paluzzi 的这一发现。Meta 尚未回应置评请求。
Pocket is another example of Meta’s push to make AI creation tools more mainstream, extending its earlier efforts, which included AI-generated images created via its Meta AI app and AI videos created with its app called Vibes. It has also added AI features across its social platforms and into its video-editing app for creators, Edits.
Pocket 是 Meta 推动 AI 创作工具主流化的又一例证，延续了其早期的努力，包括通过 Meta AI 应用生成的 AI 图像，以及通过 Vibes 应用制作的 AI 视频。此外，Meta 还将其社交平台以及面向创作者的视频编辑应用 Edits 中加入了 AI 功能。
Given that Meta has not officially announced Pocket’s debut, it’s likely that Pocket is still in its initial experimentation phase. Its counterpart Gizmo, however, had generated 635,000 lifetime installs across both iOS and Google Play, according to Appfigures, which noted it had a 98% positive sentiment.
鉴于 Meta 尚未正式宣布 Pocket 的发布，该应用很可能仍处于初步实验阶段。不过，据 Appfigures 数据显示，其前身 Gizmo 在 iOS 和 Google Play 上的累计安装量已达 63.5 万次，且好评率高达 98%。
