Meta has launched a new AI feature in the Facebook app, allowing users to make their static profile picture animated in seconds. With the help of Meta AI, photos will now appear to be waving, wearing a party hat or coming to life with confetti. This feature is gradually being rolled out to users who have Meta AI access. Now your photo will feel like not just a face, but a small video expressing your feelings.

How will this feature work?

Meta has made this very easy. All you have to do is tap on your profile picture and select the animation option. If you want your photo to wave hands, wear a party hat or have confetti (colored paper) fall on it, you can create such animation for free in minutes. For better results, choose a photo in which the face is clear and looking straight towards the camera. After this you will see a smart change. Meta AI will process your photo in seconds and turn it into a moving image like a GIF, which you can also share on your feed or story.

2. Animated background: When writing text on Facebook feed, you can now choose an animated background like waves or falling leaves instead of a plain color.
