How to Save Facebook Photos from Android's Facebook App to SD Card

Some users of the Android Facebook application want to save photos from friends or pages to their SD Card. In iOS's Facebook app it's easy to do so, but the android app doesn't support this feature yet. Sure, you can screenshot it, but that decreases the quality heavily.
STEPS

1

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE OFFICIAL FACEBOOK APPLICATION AND YOU\'RE LOGGED IN.

2

DOWNLOAD THIS APPLICATION TO YOUR PHONE AND INSTALL IT: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.gelin.android.sendtosd

3

OPEN THE FACEBOOK APPLICATION. Now go to the photo you want to save on your SD card. Tap it to view it.

4

PRESS THE MENU BUTTON.

5

LOOK IF THERE APPEARS AN OPTION NAMED "SHARE". If it isn't there, press "more".

6

TAP THE OPTION "SD CARD" WITH AN SD CARD OVER IT. You maybe have to scroll down a little bit (depending on your screen size and number of apps)

7

HEAD TO THE FOLDER WHERE YOU WANT TO SAVE IT. In the example image, save it to /storage/sdcard/

8

PRESS "COPY HERE" OR "MOVE HERE". It doesn't matter which option you choose.

9

YOU\'RE DONE. You can go to your gallery app now and your downloaded photo should appear there now.
TIPS
You can use the sharing option "send to SD Card" with many other apps, too!
