Facebook Testing iOS Mobile Photo Sync

Facebook is rolling out a Photo Sync feature for iOS users which is already available on Android, the feature allows the user to upload photos directly from the phone’s album to a private album on Facebook.

“When you turn on photo syncing, your mobile photos will be saved to a private section of your Facebook Photos,” Facebook said on an FAQ page. “You can easily share your synced photos on your timeline from desktop, mobile, or another device.”

The feature, which was first spotted by TechCrunch, is currently only available for a small number of users. If Facebook has activated photo syncing on your account, though, there are two ways you can check: with the Facebook app, find the Photos option in the left-hand nav bar, tap Photos, and “Sync” at the bottom of your pics; and on your Timeline, click Photos and the “Synched from Phone” option atop the page. If Facebook hasn’t activated your account, the sync options won’t be there.
