NEW YORK (AP) — Facebook's rocky initial public offering
hasn't stopped life at the world's biggest online social network. On
Thursday, the company unveiled a camera app for the iPhone.
The app can be downloaded from Apple's App Store and works like most other camera applications for smart phones. To take a photo,
you tap a camera icon in the upper left corner of your screen, aim and
shoot. You can then add filters, crop or tilt your photo, and share it
on Facebook.
The new app is
similar to Instagram, the photo-sharing app Facebook is in the process
of buying for $1 billion. The acquisition, however, has not yet been
completed, and Instagram's employees did not work on the photo app.
Facebook has said it expects the Instagram acquisition to close sometime
this year.
Facebook didn't
give details on when it might release a version of the app for phones
that run on Google's Android operating system. In a statement, Facebook
said it is "carefully looking at what might make for a good Facebook
photos experience across Android devices."
