Facebook has provided an update to its photo syncing and sharing app Moments to prime it for iOS 9. The update (2.2), includes support for Apple’s latest mobile OS, as well as a few new features.
Perhaps the most important addition is an update to its search function, allowing users to sift through photos based on location or by Moments’ Smart Labels — like selfies. This is an expansion to the current search service, which currently allows users to search by name, and will likely make the function much simpler.
Moments also includes an ability to thank friends for syncing photos, and a survey to gain user feedback.
Moments is available in the U.S. as well as certain international countries.
