Meta's Your Algorithm Lets Users Type Feed Preferences
Meta's Your Algorithm lets people customize Facebook feed and Reels by typing plain-language requests, and the company says recommendations update in the same session.
Meta announced Your Algorithm for Facebook on 13 October 2026, after it had already launched on Instagram.
Users can type plain-language requests for Feed and Reels, and Meta says recommendations update in the same session.
Interested and Not interested can bring follow-up questions, and that follow-up is still rolling out.
Older options remain: up to 30 Favorites, a newest-first feed, and Show more or Show less.
Reports say Facebook preferences stay in place; Threads' Dear Algo prompts lasted three days.
