Facebook Stories, Facebook Camera Effects and Facebook Direct | QPT

Starting this week on iOS and Android, you can tap on the camera icon on the top left corner of the Facebook app or swipe right from News Feed to try out the new in-app camera. The Facebook camera is packed with many effects like masks, frames and interactive filters that you can apply to your photos and videos. And, in the main Facebook app Facebook is also introducing Facebook Stories, which lets you share multiple photos and videos as part of a visual collection atop News Feed. Your friends can view photos or videos your story for 24 hours, and stories won’t appear on your Timeline or in News Feed unless you post them there, too. To add to your story, tap on the “Your Story” icon in the Stories bar at the top of News Feed. And Facebook has added another feature named as Direct, an option that’s designed for sharing individual photos and videos with specific friends for a limited time. When you send a photo or video via Direct, your friends will be able to view it once and replay it or write a reply. Once the conversation on the photo or video ends, the content is no longer visible in Direct. News Source: http://newsroom.fb.com/news/2017/03/more-ways-to-share-with-the-facebook-camera/
