Facebook lets you type what you want in Feed and Reels with Your algorithm
On October 13, 2026 Meta announced new AI tools for Facebook, including Your algorithm, where users describe in their own words the topics they want in Feed and Reels, with recommendations updating right away.
On October 13, 2026 Meta started rolling out AI tools on Facebook that let people describe, in their own words, what they want to see in Feed and Reels. The centerpiece is Your algorithm, opened from the three-dot menu, where you add and manage topics you're interested in.
What's new
- Your algorithm: a dedicated place to add or remove topics you want in Feed and Reels.
- Written feedback: after tapping "Interested" or "Not interested" on a post, Facebook may ask follow-up questions about what you liked or disliked, and you answer in your own words.
- The three-dot menu on each post has been updated to make these tools easier to reach.
How it works
Meta says large language models help its ranking systems pick up the interests and intent in what you type, then combine that with existing signals such as likes, comments and what you watch. Recommendations adjust within the same session.
What to do
Nothing is required. If you want a more relevant Feed, open the three-dot menu on a post and look for Your algorithm once it reaches your account. Meta hasn't said when it arrives in each country.
