Summary: Facebook is releasing photo sync for iOS to the general Facebook community. The new feature automatically uploads photos taken on a smartphone to a private album on a user's Facebook profile.If you don't like the idea of your photos automatically sent to your Facebook profile users don't have to activate the feature.

Relevance: I like to look at app design. Photo uploads is the part most young people are interested in.   They often take pictures by smart phone and upload them through social network. Besides, social network plays a role to connect other people with fast, ease. Students will become graphic designer one day included in me. I think we need to look at how it is going on at social network and their design   look. We need to think about attractive design according to people's taste.
