Facebook will disable the automatic synchronization of photos from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touchusers starting next year, the American company subtly suggesting to users to switch to the Moments application.
Starting next year only the Moments app it will allow the automatic synchronization of photos from iPhone, iPad or iPod Touches and the famous social network, the company's standard application, which will remain without this function offered for years and years.
Using this function, users can automatically save in the Facebook servers all the pictures recorded with their iPhone, iPad and iPod Touches, they being saved in a private album from which they can later be edited or shared with anyone or only with certain close friends .
Forcing users to abandon the standard Facebook application in favor of another application, Moments in this case, is not a new tactic for Facebook, the company has in the past forced its users to use the Messenger application to chat with friends on the social network.
The Moments application was launched many months ago by those from Facebook, it was thought to help users to more easily discover photos recorded in important moments of their lives, all based on a special software created by Facebook.
The application uploads all the photos from iDevices to the Facebook network, analyzes them and based on a facial analysis, displays those photos to everyone who appeared in them, regardless of what account they had and regardless of who the photos were published from, the idea being to discover easier pictures of us recorded at certain moments.
Now Moments will become the standard application for automatically uploading photos from iDevices to Facebook, but only for this functionality because users will still be able to manually upload photos and videos to Facebook using the standard application.
Having said that, what do you think about this new radical change made by the Facebook company for its users.
