Facebook just won't stay idle. After announcing on Thursday that Facebook's parent company will be changing its name to Meta, it seems the tech giant may be planning another big move that it hasn't even mentioned yet. An image spotted on one of its apps suggests that the company is working on a smartwatch to compete with the likes of the Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy watches.

The publication described the picture as showing a smartwatch with rounded corners, a button on the side, and a white band that is reportedly detachable. Meta has not commented on the report.
On the watch's face is a notch for an integrated camera, which could allow support for video calls. This would be a standout feature, as Apple and Samsung smartwatches don't have cameras.
