[Techtaffy Newsdesk]

FedEx has launched the FedEx Ship to Friends app that allows people who use Facebook to prepare and pay for a U.S. domestic shipment without ever leaving Facebook.

The app allows people to share with friends to let them know about packages they’ve shipped. Once a shipment is complete, people have the option to post to their friend’s timeline that they’re shipping a package to them and can include a customized message.

The app is available on desktop as well as mobile devices.
