Facebook cancels launch of teen-oriented app LOL
Facebook has been trying to woo teens back into its circle with a meme app it’s called LOL. It was designed to get memes and other teen-oriented posts from the feeds of popular Facebook pages right into a separate feed. They tried it out with 100 teens but it seems, they weren’t enjoying using said app. That’s why Facebook decided to cancel the app. Online reactions haven’t also been favorable towards it, so that could also be another reason. For now, Facebook is reportedly focusing on an even younger demographic by putting in the work towards developing Messenger Kids, its separate messaging app for children under 13 years old, which is another app that the general public hasn’t expressed particular enthusiasm over.
