'Facebook' have reportedly been testing new features called ‘Quick Update’ which is a similar feature on Snapchat. The features were tested with only a few users but unfortunately .the features may never be commercially available. Facebook confirms that this was a product that it was testing with some users. The purpose was giving people tools to share with whom they want, as opposed to wider News Feed broadcasting. However, a spokesperson tells me Facebook doesn’t plan to launch or move forward with Quick Updates. So Quick Updates is basically a stillborn feature you won’t see more.
