Moment for Mac

Quick summary

Moment is a small app designed to simplify sharing to Facebook. Its creators say it changes how you post, which may be a bold claim, but the tool does make publishing content quicker and more direct. Instead of opening Facebook in a browser, Moment lets you send items straight to your account with a simple drag-and-drop action.

How it works

• Drop files or links onto the Moment icon to compose a post without launching a web browser.
• You can combine multiple images into an album, attach videos, or type a brief text update before publishing.
• The app accepts media dragged from other sites, so video links from services such as YouTube and Vimeo are supported and can be uploaded via the same drag-and-drop gesture.

Types of content you can share

• Text status entries — short written updates and captions for your posts.
• Video files and links — native clips or content dragged from video hosts like YouTube and Vimeo.
• Photo collections — multiple images assembled and posted as a gallery.

Alternatives and availability

• CheatSheet — free option that can be useful for basic posting and quick reference.
• Other third-party tools — several desktop utilities offer similar drag-and-drop posting workflows, some with additional scheduling or editing features (pricing varies).
• Built-in web interface — the native Facebook web app remains the most full-featured method if you need advanced controls and settings.
