Similar to Instagram Stories, Facebook has also rolled out its Facebook Stories on mobile allowing users to share multiple photos and videos as part of a visual collection above the News Feed.
In addition to the story feature, Facebook also announced a new camera with advanced features in the app would begin rolling out this week for users on both Android and iOS devices.
Once you get access to stories, you'll find a camera icon in the top left corner of the Facebook app.
This modification indicates for the fourth time that Facebook has copied basic Snapchat features like photo and video montages that disappear in 24 hours. The camera has brand new effects and two additional ways to share your creative photos and videos.
The mode also works with Direct messaging that allows you to share things with specific people for a limited time. Once those photos or videos are viewed once, a person can reply or react before they disappear. You can also swipe right from News Feed to try out the new in-app camera.
In a series of updates, Facebook has introduced three new features to its app.
After introducing stories on Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger, Facebook has finally released the feature for everyone on Facebook.
Facebook is back at it releasing borrowed features from other social media platforms.
Facebook will keep updating filters and masks for users.
Facebook has also been reported to add in camera effects that will feature various movie teasers such as "Despicable Me 3", Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2", "Alien: "Covenant", "Wonder Woman" and "Smurfs: "The Lost Village" to name a few.
Beyond that, Facebook has partnered with a number of major films to bring new masks to its camera.
"The way people create content is changing to be from text to photos and videos", product manager for Facebook stories Connor Hayes said. Of course, none of this is that new, as we've seen plenty of these features on Snapchat first, then Instagram.
