Facebook recently announced that all videos on the platform will soon be shared as reels, simplifying the uploading process for users. This change means that users no longer have to choose between uploading a video or a reel, as all videos will be shared in the reel format. Additionally, reels on Facebook will have no length or format restrictions, providing more creative freedom to content creators. Users will also have control over the audience settings for their reels, ensuring that they reach the right audience.
As part of Meta's efforts to streamline privacy settings, the default settings for Feed posts and reels will be unified. This means that users will have the same default audience setting for both Feed posts and reels, simplifying the publishing process. Users will be prompted to confirm additional details, such as choosing an audience or updating settings, when posting a new reel after these changes take effect.
