Now Facebook releases 'camera'

May 25, 2012 04:13

Facebook has released a "camera" application that lets people take Instagram-style pictures that can be shared with iPhones.

The stand-alone application synchs to the leading social network, letting friends consult one another's photos. The new mobile app launched on Thursday "makes using Facebook photos faster and easier," according to product manager Dirk Stoop.

"You'll see a feed of great photos from the people you care about," Stoop said in a Facebook post. "You can swipe to see more of any album or tap to enlarge an individual photo."

The mini-programme also let people share many pictures simultaneously instead of having to post them one at a time to the social network, according to Stoop.

Facebook Camera was due to be available at Apple's online App Store late Thursday.
