The official announcement made for the same in the Facebook Newsroom states that this new version has been designed "to reduce clutter and focus more on stories from the people you care about." From now on, users will see all the stories in their News Feed with a fresh new look.

"We've completely rebuilt each story to be much more vibrant and colorful and highlight the content that your friends are sharing. Photos, news articles, maps and events all look brighter and more beautiful," the post states.

In order to offer users all the stories they want to see, the company has introduced several new feeds to make the News Feed as detailed as possible. These changes include:

-All Friends: A feed that shows you everything your friends are sharing
-Photos: A feed with nothing but photos from your friends and the Pages you like
-Music: A feed with posts about the music you listen to
-Following: A feed with the latest news from the Pages you like and the people you follow.

With the new design now in place, Facebook has the same look and feel on mobile, tablet and web. "For example, the left-hand menu is accessible anywhere you go on Facebook. You also have a way to jump right to the top of News Feed whenever new stories come in," the post adds.
