Great news for Facebook users. Facebook Inc. on Thursday released a "camera" application that lets people take Instagram-style pictures which can be shared with iPhones after Facebook IPO..
The app will make it easier for Facebook users to take pictures, edit them, and share them on the social networking site.
Not so awfully long after it announced its $1 billion plan to purchase Instagram, Facebook today released a photo-sharing app of its own,
The stand-alone application synchs to the leading social network, letting friends admire one another's photos.
The new mobile app '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-program 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 to be available in Apple's online App Store late Thursday.
Menlo Park, California-based social network made a billion-dollar deal in April to buy the startup behind wildly popular smartphone photo sharing application Instagram.
