Facebook Is Pulling the Plug on Group Stories

The feature will no longer be available as of Sept. 26

While Facebook is clearly bullish on Stories, not every idea the social network explored has succeeded.

Facebook initially said in November 2017 that it would extend Stories to groups, and the social network rolled out group Stories globally last December.

However, group Stories will be no more as of Sept. 26 at 9 a.m. PT/noon ET.

A Facebook spokesperson confirmed the demise of the feature, saying in a statement, “We’re sunsetting group Stories because we want to make sure that features in groups enable people to connect in fun and useful ways, and we’re always looking at ways to improve the overall experience for communities on Facebook.”
