SAN FRANCISCO, May 5: In early December, Facebook began implementing a tool to select locations that would allow users to transfer their uploaded photos from the platform to Google Photos. In recent months, more regions have slowly gained access to this tool, with the last being the United States and Canada over the weekend.

Late last year, Facebook announced that it believes “if you share data with one service, you should be able to move it to another,” which is the reasoning behind the launch of a tool that allows users to transfer their images from the platform to Google Photos.

According to the company, people can “make a copy of the photos and videos that they have uploaded to Facebook and transfer them to another service.” Unfortunately, the tool doesn’t seem to simplify transferring photos that were shared in Messenger conversations to Google’s photo storage service.

This feature was first implemented in Ireland, but since then it has been available in Latin America, Asia Pacific, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Southeast Asia, Africa, and finally the USA. USA And Canada.

Going forward, Facebook plans to expand the range of services to which media images can be transferred beyond Google Photos. – AFP-Relaxnews
