Our take

The pitch makes sense on paper: strip away the noise and give group conversations their own home. But with installs this low, it’s hard to say Meta has convinced anyone to add a second app for something the main one already covers.

About Forum, a Facebook app

Forum is a dedicated space for the conversations that matter most to you, built for the communities you already love on Facebook Groups and those you have yet to discover.

Facebook is great for keeping up with friends, watching videos, and staying connected. Forum is where you go deeper in groups. It’s a space designed around real discussions, shared interests, and the people who’ve been there.

Dedicated space for your groups Sign in with your Facebook account and your groups, profile and activity carry over. You have the option to post with a nickname. Your groups still exist on Facebook and anything you share on Forum will be visible in your groups on Facebook. This is just a space built around them.

Stay in the loop on conversations you care about Your feed is built around conversations from groups. See what real people are saying, not just what’s trending, and easily jump back in where you left off.

Ask and get answers from real people Looking for opinions, advice or recommendations? Ask pulls together responses from across groups, so you can get answers right away from people who’ve been there and join the conversation.

Built for the people who run groups Admins still have access to all their tools on Facebook, and now they also have an admin AI assistant on Forum to help manage their groups, moderate content, and keep their communities healthy — all while maintaining control.

Dive into topics that interest you Forum brings people together around the things they care about, from niche hobbies to local recommendations to support groups. Share your take, join the conversation and connect with your communities.

What we like

  • Addresses a real gap: a dedicated space for group discussions instead of a mixed feed
  • Ties into existing Facebook Groups so you're not starting from zero
  • Nickname posting option gives a bit more privacy within groups

Watch out for

  • Extremely low install count (10K+) suggests this hasn't found its audience
  • Functionally a subset of something Facebook's main app already does
Verdict: A reasonable idea, splitting Groups into its own focused app, that hasn't proven it needs to exist as a separate download.
