Marketing Land | February 15, 2017
In the biggest change since December 2013, when Facebook began playing videos automatically in people’s news feeds, on mobile Facebook will now play those videos automatically with the sound on by default, the company announced on Tuesday. Facebook announced more news surrounding videos playing on small screens, like larger vertical videos and videos playing a smaller pop-out player like on YouTube. But that’s old news to you, since you read about those things last year and the year before, respectively.
