Meta is introducing the Meta AI app, a next-generation assistant built for personalization, voice interactions, and seamless integration across Meta’s ecosystem. This new standalone app is powered by Llama 4, and it’s available today for users looking to experience a more intuitive, context-aware artificial intelligence companion.
The app connects to Meta’s existing AI platforms, including WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger, while also serving as the companion application for Ray-Ban Meta glasses. Whether you’re at your desk, on mobile, or wearing smart glasses, the Meta AI app is designed to deliver a unified, personal AI experience.
Why Meta Is Introducing the Meta AI App
With the rise of AI-powered personal assistants, Meta is stepping into a future where voice, personalization, and social context define how users interact with machines. The Meta AI app is not just a chatbot — it’s designed to:
- Understand and remember your preferences
- Adapt to contextual information
- Enable fluid voice conversations
- Offer web-connected recommendations and answers
- Integrate with Meta’s full suite of products
This first release is the foundation for a broader vision of personalized artificial intelligence that serves individuals uniquely.
Built with Llama 4: The Brain Behind the Meta AI App
The Meta AI app is powered by Llama 4, Meta’s most advanced large language model to date. This upgrade brings:
- Conversational tone and natural language responses
- Enhanced understanding of context
- Voice and image generation capabilities
- On-device memory of past preferences (when enabled)
Llama 4 makes Meta AI feel less like a tool and more like a personal assistant that knows what matters to you.
Key Features in the Meta AI App
Here’s what makes the Meta AI app stand out in a crowded field of digital assistants:
1. Voice Conversations with Full-Duplex Technology
The app supports real-time voice conversations, including a full-duplex speech demo — allowing you and the AI to talk naturally without waiting for turns. This feature is currently available in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
2. Personalized AI Responses
Meta AI can remember that you love travel or prefer French cuisine. Drawing from Meta profiles and platform activity (if you’ve given permission), the assistant tailors its responses based on:
- Your profile info
- Content you like
- Apps you’ve connected via Accounts Center
3. Discover Feed for Prompt Sharing
The app introduces a Discover feed, where users can:
- Explore trending AI uses
- Share and remix prompts
- Gain inspiration for how others are using Meta AI
You control what’s visible — nothing gets shared unless you choose to post it.
4. Companion App for Ray-Ban Meta Glasses
The Meta AI app replaces the Meta View app for glasses users. Once updated:
- All your settings, media, and paired devices transfer automatically
- Conversations can be picked up across the app and web (but not from glasses back to the app)
- Voice and visual experiences become tightly integrated
5. Meta AI on the Web
Alongside the app, the Meta AI web interface gets a fresh upgrade with:
- Voice interaction capabilities
- Discover feed integration
- Enhanced image generation tools with customizable presets
- A rich document editor (in select countries) for generating and exporting visual documents
Meta is also testing document upload capabilities for analysis and intelligent summarization.
Privacy and Control in the Meta AI Experience
Meta has built controls directly into the app to ensure transparency and user choice:
- A visible microphone icon indicates when voice is active
- “Ready to talk” can be toggled on/off from settings
- Personalized memory can be edited or turned off entirely
- Nothing is shared publicly without explicit user action
This aligns with Meta’s broader approach to giving users control over their AI experience.
A Personal AI Assistant for Everyone
Meta envisions the new app as an assistant that lives where you live — across devices, platforms, and conversations. Whether you’re:
- Messaging friends on WhatsApp
- Browsing Instagram
- Hosting a group on Facebook
- Wearing Meta glasses
— the Meta AI assistant is there, evolving with your habits and style.
Glasses, apps, and web — all working together to deliver a deeply personal AI assistant that feels like part of your everyday life.
Final Thoughts on Introducing the Meta AI App
By introducing the Meta AI app, Meta is positioning itself at the forefront of personalized AI experiences. Built with Llama 4, designed for natural voice conversations, and tightly woven into the Meta ecosystem, this assistant reflects the future of human-AI interaction. Whether you’re exploring, chatting, creating, or navigating your day, the Meta AI app promises to be your most accessible and intuitive companion yet.
