Facebook will start adding a small new feature starting today that will help you visually enhance your posts. Starting today you will be able to add colors to the background of each post. Don't all rejoice.. Only the users for a start mobile devices with Android will be able to use the new feature.
Yes! posts with the new feature enabled will display a pop with colors that you can use as a background.
To use it, tap on the status bar, and select a color. Write your message and press publish. The new feature works for posts with links, images or video.
While it's a simple feature, it's a big concession that will affect Facebook's visual identity, which will no longer be the biggest social platform in the world, in blue and white. Of course, this is not necessarily a good thing...
The feature will be released for Android users during the week, but the background colors will be visible on Android, iOS and the Web.
It will be available on iOS and the Web "in the coming months."
