Facebook launched a bundle of features to add an element of fun to your virtual Diwali celebrations this year. These include personalised greetings with Diwali-ready Avatars and an opportunity to encourage your friends and family to participate in fun challenges and spread festive cheer online.
The new bundle of features include:
Start a challenge by simply entering a hashtag in English that ends in the word 'challenge', when you go to create a new Facebook post, or tap on the "Try It" button when you see another Challenges post in your News Feed. Add photos and videos to your challenges post this festive season and nominate your friends and family to join in the fun by tagging them.
First, create an Avatar from your mobile device and go to "Create Post" composer on Android or iOS and click "Background Color" and select the Diwali background and you are all set!
