marking a significant enhancement. This tool allows users to transform their photos into engaging mini-movies with various customizable themes and transitions.
The introduction of the Slideshow movie-maker coincides with efforts from other tech giants like Apple and Google, who are also exploring new ways to help users interact more with their extensive collections of photos and videos while automating sharing processes. For instance, Apple introduced its ‘Memories’ mini-movie maker in iOS 10 last year, while Google Photos has long featured automated photo tools, including its own movie maker.
Initially, Facebook’s latest version prompted users posting status updates to create a Slideshow if they had accumulated more than five photos or videos in the past 24 hours. A ‘Try It’ button was also provided alongside friends’ slideshows.
Now, the feature appears prominently alongside other options like Photo/Video, Go Live, Check In, Feeling/Activity, etc., when tapping on the Status bar (“What’s on your mind?”), including on Android.
A Trial by Facebook of video slideshow:
Facebook has confirmed that it’s currently testing the feature on Android, with only a small percentage of active users seeing it in action. Despite having been live on iOS for over half a year, it’s noteworthy that the Android version is still designated as a “TEST.” This suggests that Facebook may make further adjustments before a broader rollout.
While Facebook hasn’t disclosed a specific timeline for when Slideshows will be available to all Android users, given the feature’s capabilities, its public launch isn’t expected to be too far off.
