Facebook BARS app launched to give competition to TikTok’s rappers: Everything you need to know

Facebook recently released its content creation app named BARS for budding rappers. Rumoured as a competitor of existing short video applications like TikTok, BARS is not merely a lip-syncing application to create content. The application is designed by New Product Experimentation (NPE), which is a social media company and R&D team of Facebook.

Why was the need to create the BARS app?

The conventional short-video applications like Tik-Tok and Instagram Reels led to a trend among the creators to arrange expensive equipment and studio bookings. Although these apps have in-built music, they don’t offer sufficient features for rappers. The BARS app allows budding rappers to concentrate on their lyrics and flow rather than investing their time and effort in the equipment. Besides, the app assists rappers to modulate their vocals using auto-suggested effects. According to DJ Iyer, BARS Community Manager, “The coronavirus outbreak was one of the major reasons for developing the BARS app. I know access to high-priced recording studios and production equipment can be limited for aspiring rappers. On top of that, the global pandemic shut down live performances where we often create and share our work. So, along with a group of aspiring rappers, we’ve been building BARS: a place for aspiring rappers to create and share their art.”

How does Facebook’s BARS app work?

In contrast to short-video sharing services like Tik-Tok and Instagram Reels, BARS is particularly designed for creating videos in rapping style. To help the performers, the app provides pre-recorded rhythms and beats to deliver your words in rap style. To get the flow like a professional rapper, you get rhymes from a dictionary suggested by the application. The Challenge mode helps you develop the ability to freestyle using auto-suggested lyrics. As soon as you perform your rap, you can add various kinds of audio and visual filters to make your rap content look more attractive. You get advanced tools like Clean, AutoTune, Imaginary Friends, and AM Radio to modulate the rap vocal as per your preference. The BARS app allows you to save your rap videos to your Camera Roll or share them with your friends on social media.
How does Facebook's BARS app work?
Can the BARS app replace Tik-Tok?
According to DJ Iyer, BARS Community Manager, “Rap has a rich and varied history that has influenced culture for over 40 years. I’m inspired by the art form and the culture, and while I work at Facebook, I’m also a hip-hop songwriter and ghostwriter under the alias D-Lucks. I know access to high-priced recording studios and production equipment can be limited for aspiring rappers. On top of that, the global pandemic shut down live performances where we often create and share our work. So, along with a group of aspiring rappers, we’ve been building BARS: a place for aspiring rappers to create and share their art.”

Can the BARS app replace Tik-Tok?

Tik-Tok has so far dominated the market of short video making services. Recently, Facebook released Instagram Reels and Collab to compete with Tik-Tok and has been quite successful especially in the backdrop of the Chinese apps ban in India. The new BARS app is a unique venture to attract budding rappers in the content-creating domain. It is yet to witness if it becomes successful in dominating Tik-Tok in the international market.

Is the BARS application available for you?

Currently, the BARS app is available for download only in the US market as a beta version. If you are an iPhone user, you can download the app as well as sign up on the waitlist from the US App Store. Facebook expects to increase the reach of the BARS app in batches, beginning with U.S. updates and news about invites. The interested rappers can install the app to secure their username. Availability in India is still not clear, however, India is a big market for the US based company so chances are the app will come to our land as well.

Facebook’s smart-glasses will launch later this year: Everything we know so far

Facebook recently announced that it will release a new consumer wearable, smart glasses, this year. Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg had said last year that the company is making glasses in partnership with Ray-Ban, a glass manufacturing brand owned by the Luxottica Group Spa. Although several media reports had used the term ‘Augmented Reality’ to describe these smart glasses, Facebook insists on calling this new wearable “connected glasses” only. Mark Zuckerberg announced in 2020, “We don’t have a product yet to share with you today, but I am excited to share that we have formed a multi-year partnership starting with building and releasing our first pair of smart glasses next year.”

What will be the technology behind Facebook’s smart glasses?

Facebook has displayed a consistent stand in saying that the smart glasses it will release will not implement the Augmented Reality feature. Zuckerberg even revealed in a promotional video that the smart glasses will act as internet-enabled device. There is not much information regarding the exact working of these smart glasses. However, there will certainly be no computer-generated graphics superimposed on the real-world image, commonly done by AR-implemented devices. According to Andrew Bosworth, Vice President of Augmented and Virtual Reality at Facebook, “These are certainly connected glasses, they are certainly providing a lot of functionality, we’re being quite coy about which functionality precisely we are providing. We’re excited about it but we don’t want to over-hype it. We’re not even calling it augmented reality, we’re just calling it smart glasses”.

How does Facebook see this innovation? 

Facebook revealed that the upcoming smart glasses will be a significant advancement in the company’s overall research on AR, including the experimental research prototype named Project Aria. This project revolves around developing a full-fledged pair of Augmented Reality glasses. Facebook added that it will begin testing Aria in the real world with the help of Facebook employees and contractors. The challenge will be to handle issues like privacy, video recording, and design. “We’re passionate about exploring devices that can give people better ways to connect with those closest to them. Wearables have the potential to do that. With EssilorLuxottica we have an equally ambitious partner who’ll lend their expertise and world-class brand catalogue to the first truly fashionable smart glasses,” Andrew Bosworth, Facebook’s vice president of the Reality Labs division, said in a statement.

What is the controversy regarding Facebook’s smart glasses?

Despite its privacy criticisms, Facebook tried to recall the days when the launch of the Google Glass created uproars regarding privacy concerns due to built-in cameras. Facebook asserted that it would carry out thorough testing before launching any consumer Augmented Reality gadget in the market. While demonstrating how the smart glasses could help capture memories, Andrew Bosworth, Vice President of Augmented and Virtual Reality at Facebook, said, “By the time you get the phone up, not only have you probably missed it but if you don’t miss it, you’re probably watching the real event but through your phone. If you have the right technology, it can get out of the way.”

How are they different from Google Glass?

Well, to begin with, the Facebook Glasses will be like regular spectacles and not just the frame with a display on the side like Google Glass. Also, these are going to give a more wholesome experience to the customers with both the glasses or one full glass working as a HUD (head up display), which we commonly see in todays hig-end cars. This can show you navigation maps, price of product you hold and even the ingredients inside the food can. Rumours are rife, however exact details we will get to know by the end of this year.
