Meta is planning to test subscription models for Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, allowing paid users access to enhanced features and AI capabilities. The subscriptions aim to monetize Meta's investments in AI, including its recent acquisition of Manus. Users will get some features for free, while others, like the full version of the Vibes video tool, will require payment.

Meta plans to test premium subscription models for Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, offering features that enhance user control and creativity. Instagram will focus on tools for creators, while the specifics for Facebook and WhatsApp are still being defined. The company aims to integrate AI into these offerings and will seek user feedback throughout the testing phase.

Meta has rolled out new AI features for Facebook, allowing users to animate their profile pictures with preset motions like confetti and hearts. Users can also enhance Stories and Memories with AI-generated image edits and select animated backdrops for text posts. Custom animations aren't available yet, but Meta plans to add seasonal backgrounds.
