Facebook renews search for elusive younger users with Lifestage
Facebook is again trying to tackle one of its biggest problems and lure in elusive younger users.
The social networking giant has released a new stand-alone app, called Lifestage, for iOS devices. It's focused on enabling young users to share videos with other people in their schools.
Think of it as a video version of a very early stage Facebook -- and a direct competitor to Snapchat.
The app, which is still in the testing stages and isn't yet available on Android, has one big caveat: You have to be between 13 and 21 to use it.
People over the age of 21 will not be able to see other users' content and other users won't be able to find them either.
