Facebook has launched for customers around the world a new very useful, but completely unexpected feature, it being integrated among those that are available for customers using its services worldwide at the moment. More precisely, Facebook allows its users to transfer their photos from the platform to Google Photos, and the first country where the function is offered is Ireland, but it will be gradually distributed in other areas of the globe.
Facebook claims that after a decade in which it allowed people to download an archive of information that is recorded within the social network, it now allows people to transfer their photos much more easily to Google Photos. Facebook is part of a group that includes Apple, Google, Microsoft, and other companies, with the aim of facilitating the rapid transfer of information between the accounts of these entities.
Facebook LAUNCHES a MAJOR and COMPLETELY Unexpected New Function
Facebook claims that based on this project it will allow the transfer of people's data including to other platforms, but that it starts now with Google Photos to see how viable everything is for large-scale use by users. Thanks to this functionality, all those who uploaded photos to Facebook, but did not save them in Google Photos, will have the opportunity to do so in order not to lose them completely from their phones.
Facebook changes the quality of pictures uploaded to the network to a very large extent, so it will not be possible to transfer pictures at the quality they were taken on phones, but at least they will not be completely deleted from the devices. Facebook will most likely implement support for iCloud, OneDrive, and other services that allow file storage in the servers of various companies, but for now it is not known when this will happen.
In the coming months, Facebook will extend this functionality to various other countries around the world, but for now it is not very clear how long this should last, and what is the order of the countries in which the function will be offered to users.
