Facebook Quietly Releases a Pinterest-Like App Called 'Hobbi'

Facebook has quietly released a Pinterest-like app called 'Hobbi'.

Back in July, Facebook announced that it would launch experimental apps under the name 'NPE Team, from Facebook'. These apps will get shut down if they don't gain popularity.

NPE Team apps will be aligned with Facebook’s mission of giving people the power to build community but will focus on shipping entirely new experiences. We decided to use this separate brand name to help set the appropriate expectations with users that NPE Team apps will change very rapidly and will be shut down if we learn that they’re not useful to people.


According to the app's description, "Hobbi wants to help you document and remember the things you love to do."

Here's a look at Hobbi's features:

● CAPTURE AND ORGANIZE YOUR CREATIVE PROCESS
Save photos of the projects you’re working on and the activities you love to do. Whether it’s cooking, baking, DIY, arts & crafts, fitness or home decor.

● CELEBRATE THE JOURNEY
Organize your photos into visual collections and see the progress you’re making over time. You might just surprise yourself with how much you have done.


● SHARE YOUR HIGHLIGHTS
Don’t just keep your accomplishments to yourself. Create highlight videos and share with friends and family.

You can download Hobbi from the App Store for free.
