The process of forming a new interface
The new Facebook interface was announced at Facebook’s developer conference last year and was initially rolled out on iOS and Android apps. In March, the theme went live on PC to select a select number of people to participate in the testing process, as well as allowing people to continue using the old design if they wanted to. However, by this September, the old design has officially disappeared.
This new interface is a pretty big change from what Facebook has done throughout its life. The interface is a lot cleaner, includes more white space, and also has the dark mode that users have always expected. Functionally, it focuses on improving the features of the services, as well as prominently displaying links to the Facebook Watch, Marketplace and Gaming sections in the top navigation bar.
In general, this design is much more optimized than the old design, but also because of the way advanced features are harder to find. If you want to use the old Facebook interface, read the instructions below.

There are a large number of Facebook users who still find the old interface easier to use, because they are used to the layout and layout of that interface. So also lazy to use the new interface and take time to get used to this interface again.
But this new interface is really cool, it’s beautiful, simple, refined, more user-friendly. Also because of the above reasons, Facebook opened the door to test the new version and limited the number of testers to see their reaction to this interface.
Fortunately, perhaps their reactions to this interface have been quite positive, so Facebook decided to launch the new design a little earlier than expected. But that’s okay, we’ve known this for almost a year now. In fact, when Facebook opened the test session, my account was not the chosen one, so I was reluctant to create nearly a dozen accounts at once just to experience this new interface.
To return to the old interface, you just need to follow the following steps.
Step 1: Install extension Old Layout for Facebook.
Step 2: After downloading, you just need to download facebook again.
So you have successfully switched to using the old interface of Facebook already. If you are interested in returning to the new interface, just click on the extension and then switch to Disable.
