Meta is making all Facebook videos reels
Meta is making a change to how sharing videos works on Facebook. Right now, you can share videos as a video from the post composer or as a reel, and both have different sharing workflows. In 'the coming months,' however, 'all videos on Facebook will be shared as reels,' according to a blog post. 'Facebook remains a home for all types of video – short, long, and Live,' Meta says. 'We will gradually roll out these changes globally to profiles and Pages over the coming months to help you create, share and discover reels more easily on Facebook.' Meta also plans to remove the length restrictions for reels on Facebook – right now, they're limited to being 90 seconds long, per a support page. Additionally, Meta will rename the Video tab to be the Reels tab. 'We still value a variety of topics and lengths on Facebook, and this update won't change what videos we recommend to you, which are personalized based on your interests,' the company says. The changes to Facebook videos follow Mark Zuckerberg saying this year that he wanted to make Facebook 'way more culturally influential than it is today' and to get back to 'some OG Facebook.' The company introduced a new full-screen mobile video player for Facebook last year. Meta has also pushed reels in a big way on Instagram, and as of January, reels on that platform can be up to three minutes long.

Facebook announces that all videos on its platform will soon be shared as reels
Facebook announced on Tuesday that all videos on its platform will soon be shared as reels, regardless of their length or orientation. Up until now, users have been able to share both video posts and reels. The company is also renaming the 'Video' tab on its platform to the 'Reels' tab. The update won't change what videos are recommended to you, Facebook says. In the coming months, users won't have to choose between uploading a video or reel, as it will automatically be shared as a reel. In addition, reels on Facebook won't be bound by length or format restrictions. (Currently, reels on Facebook can only be 90 seconds long.) The idea behind the changes is to streamline the video-sharing format on the social network. It won't be the first time that a Meta-owned platform has done so, as Instagram began automatically converting new video posts under 15 minutes into reels back in 2022. 'Previously, you'd upload a video to Feed or post a reel using different creative flows and tools for each format,' Facebook explained in a blog post. 'Now, we're bringing these experiences together with a simplified publishing flow that gives you access to even more creative tools. We'll also give you control over your audience setting of who sees your reels.' Image Credits:Facebook The change is likely to upset some users, as it may pose some challenges. For example, it could be annoying to post a horizontal video if it gets uploaded into a vertical reels format. Plus, users may not want to see longer videos mixed in with short ones. As part of the change, users' default settings will now be the same for the Feed and reels. When users start to post reels after the change, they will be prompted to confirm their audience setting to determine who can see their reels: everyone, their friends, or a select group of people.
