Facebook Asks Users to Download New Moment App Instead of the Old Photo Sharing Service

Facebook company has announced that the photo sharing service will not be continued, instead a new app named Moment will be launched for photo syncing. That means if you want to access photos on your phone for mobile, need to download this app first. Check more details in this post.

The Moment app allows users to privately share photos with select friends, has been climbing the app store charts over the past few months as Facebook lent its strength to give the app more visibility across its social network and on its instant messaging service. When a user shares photos with friends on Moments, the app pushes a message that tells the friend they have photos waiting to the recipient’s Notifications feed on Facebook and to their Messenger app. This has encouraged viral adoption among Facebook’s user base.

Photo-syncing, in case you’re unfamiliar, was launched several years ago to offer mobile users an easier way to back up and upload their photos to Facebook’s service. The app would run in the background, syncing photos to a private album on Facebook where they could later be edited, shared, or deleted, as users saw fit. The feature was a big deal at the time as photos have been one of the core drivers for return visits and time on the site. To shut it down entirely in favor of Moments is nearly as bold a move as when Facebook ripped out Messenger functionality within its flagship app last year, forcing users to download the standalone version of Messenger in order to chat with friends on mobile.

Moments is next to get this type of treatment. If you value having your photos backed up and automatically synced, you’ll have to now download another app, says Facebook.
