Facebook removes Poke and Camera apps from the App Store

In 2012 Facebook had an application called "Poke". This app, in addition to making friends pay attention to you through the same poke feature on Facebook in the web, it also allows users to send messages that self-destruct after a certain time (1, 3, 5, or 10 seconds ).

However, Poke is not widely known and used, leading to Facebook's decision to remove it from the App Store since today. It is known that Facebook used only 12 days to build this software and this is not a priority of the company.

On this occasion Facebook removed the capture application and uploaded the " Camera " image. The company spokesperson only confirmed it but did not comment further. Unlike Poke, Facebook Camera is well received at the time of launch because it provides many beautiful color effects, and also allows uploading multiple photos at once, which the Facebook app on iOS cannot do in the middle in 2012. Currently the Facebook Camera's image selection and editing tool still appears in the main app.
