Nokia N8: How To Upload Photographs To Facebook

Once you’ve taken photographs using the excellent camera on the Nokia N8, the chances are you’ll want to share them. Nokia’s Ovi service makes it easy to share snaps with Facebook or Twitter – join us after the break to find out how…

To get started, open the photograph that you want to share on Facebook. Once you’ve cropped or edited it, and are happy with the way it looks, it’s time to click the share button. The button is on the bottom left of the photograph.

You’ll need to have an Ovi Account, and you’ll also have to enter details for your Facebook or Twitter account. Once you’ve logged in and stored the login details for your social networks, future uploading is a simple case of tapping the share button in any of your photographs – as you can see below they’ll then upload automatically, with the time and “via Ovi by Nokia” below them.

You can also add multiple photographs from the Facebook app itself – or even upload snaps straight from the camera. To do this, click on the little camera icon in the Facebook app.

You then be asked what you want to share, being able to choose from the following options: Photo(s) from the Gallery, Photo from the Camera and Video from the Gallery. All do exactly what they claim to, making it easy to upload your content.

Clicking on the Gallery option takes you straight to your snaps – you can click on up to six to upload – simply press OK once you’ve picked the right ones. Clicking the Camera option lets you take a photograph there and then, automatically uploading it straight away.

    not working.. i had an app that allowed me to share photos from my fb page but after i formatted my n8 that app was gone and i can’t share any pic via that stupid phone.. what shold i do

  • david

    is there any way to change the compression level? my uploaded pics look rubbish using this method whereas the actual pic is so much better

  • ETTL

    This upload method will downsize your photo and will not be good when it’s shown on FB. Use pixelpipe to upload actual quality photo.
    Nokia should have the option to upload original file to FB instead of default downgrade the photo quality. “(
