Its divided in three main segments:
A. Your Cover

B. Your Stories
It will be the place where you will find all you highlighted post, photos, videos and updates.
C. Your Apps
This will the place where you will get to see all your activities, the movies you saw, songs you listened to , new you read and so on.
There are tags on timeline as year from current to the year you were born. As you scroll down to your cover, you'll see your posts, photos, videos and all your stories as they happened in time.
