Facebook Moments : photo sharing application with friends

Are you annoyed when your friends take pictures of you, and do you ever send? Facebook launches new standalone application called Moments, which will facilitate sharing photos with friends, allowing to be alerted whenever pictures of you end up divided.

Moments scans the mobile device picture folder to find familiar faces, and allows you to share photos with the people directly identified in the photo. If the social network already uses facial recognition technology to make tagging suggestions on Facebook, Moments goes even further. Once your friends are using the app, they will see the pictures where they were identified. If they have not yet installed the Moments application, they will receive a notification when photos will be expectations on the application.

Moments The Facebook app is a great way for people to share photos of weddings, birthday parties, concerts, and family gatherings. You can also find photos of your friends, save photos directly to your smartphone, and share photos directly to Facebook or Instagram - all in the application. Conversely, those who do not want to be identified in group photos can decide using the Facebook settings.


"I think we will learn Moments, which will finally make its appearance in the main application," said the product manager of Faceboo, Will Ruben at The Verge. He continues by stating that "in sharing photos Moments is really different shares in other applications."

Moments is brought to you by Creative Labs, the same team that published applications such as Paper, Hello, Legal and Slingshot. While most of these creative projects have not really captured the general public, they are a key part of the experiences of Facebook. It will be interesting to see if Moments happen to be viral, or whether it will disappear like many new business applications.

Moments is available for download in the US on iOS or Android. According to Facebook, Moments will "happen in other countries over time."
