Meta is introducing new features for Messenger users, enabling the creation of shared albums within chats, the transmission of high-definition photos, and the sharing of larger files up to 100MB in size. This update caters to individuals accustomed to sharing albums or HD images via platforms like Google Drive. Previously, users were limited to viewing a list of photos shared in a chat without the ability to organize them; now, they can create albums in group chats, facilitating organization for various occasions such as vacations or family events. To initiate an album, users select multiple photos from the chat composer and tap "create album," or long-press a photo to do so. Additionally, users can add photos to existing albums by selecting the "Add to album" option. Everyone in a chat can view, add, delete, and download pictures and videos within an album, which can be accessed via the "Media" button in the chat interface. This introduction of shared albums fills a gap in Meta's messaging services, as it's not available on platforms like WhatsApp and Instagram DMs, likely making it a welcomed addition for users.
