Facebook's cover feed coming as an option to Home-supported Android devices
Facebook’s latest update for Android devices will borrow from a notable feature within Facebook Home. Starting today, Android users with Home-supported devices will be able to have cover feed as their default lock screen, if they so choose.
Facebook regularly borrows parts of standalone apps such as Messenger and Camera (for iOS) and incorporates them into the native app.
Through this latest update, which will roll out gradually starting today, Android users with a Home-supported device can choose to have their lock screen be cover feed, which allows them to flip through and see updates and photos from their friends.
A Facebook spokesperson commented on the app’s newest update:
Cover feed has been a popular element of the Home experience and making it available from the Facebook Android app makes it accessible for more people.
