Meta AI now gets a standalone app on mobile devices as the company looks to go beyond its WhatsApp and Facebook user base to grow its AI market.

The first version of Meta AI works like any other AI chatbot out there, giving you assistance with text prompts or voice commands.

The Meta AI app is powered by the new Llama 4 AI model from the company, and it claims the new platform will most likely be at the forefront of its AI ambitions in the next few years.

This means, Meta AI finally gets a voice, something that we have been waiting to see on WhatsApp or Instagram, on the new standalone app.

The voice feature on Meta AI will have multiple options just like Siri, ChatGPT and Gemini Live.

You even have a toggle switch to make sure Meta AI voice does not start/respond on its own.

It will use aspects like your travel preferences, food, to personalise the results and seek information from your profiles (if you give the permission).
