WARNING: FaceBook will delete some of your photos soon – get ’em backed up now!
WARNING – FaceBook is about to delete a group of photos that you may (or may not) have known existed.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!
They currently live in the private “Synced” or “Synced from Phone” section of your Facebook photos.
Back in 2012, Facebook launched an optional photo syncing feature that automatically uploaded your phone’s photos to a private album. The company wanted to make it easy for you to share those photos online at a later date.
But Facebook began phasing out the feature late last year in order to encourage people to download and use its Moments app.
Facebook will delete any photos that were previously in a Synced folder unless users download and log into Moments to transfer them before July 7.
Users who don’t want to use Moments but want to save their photos can download the files right now on their computer.
For more information on Moments, please go to your phone’s respective app store.
