On the heels of Vine's release and growing popularity, Facebook has updated its iOS app with the ability to record and share videos in-app. The update also includes the ability to send voice messages in-app, and Facebook says it's improved the relevance of results appearing in the Nearby tab. (Facebook already updated its Android app last week with the same voice messaging functionality.) iOS users were previously able to upload video directly to Facebook from the photo roll, but the functionality is now internal, which should speed things up for people who spend their time in the Facebook app. While the functionality isn't similar, the company's timing for this minor tweak is likely a response to the recent success of Vine.
