Are you a regular Facebook user? Then get ready for a big shift on your feed. Meta is making a significant change that will simplify how we create and share videos on the platform: soon, all Facebook videos will be shared as Reels. That’s right, the distinction between a standard video upload and a Reel is about to disappear. This will make your video-sharing experience much more streamlined, Meta claims.

This move is all about ease of use. If you’ve ever paused before uploading a video, wondering if it should be a regular post or a short-form Reel, those days are coming to an end. Meta is essentially combining these options in one place. So when you upload a video, it will automatically be treated and presented as a Reel. This aims to simplify the process, allowing creators to focus on the content itself rather than the format.

Now all videos on Facebook will be Reels

To support this shift, the social media platform is also making some additional changes. The company just brought together its various creative tools and editing features into a unified and simplified publishing flow. This means when you go to create a video, you’ll have available a broader range of editing tools and options. You will no longer have to jump between different pages to make your content shine. The goal is to make video creation more intuitive and efficient for everyone.

Even with this change, Meta assures users that they will retain full control over their audience settings. So, whether you’re sharing with just a few friends or making your content public, your videos will still be seen by only the people you intend.

In a clear sign of this new direction, Facebook is also renaming its dedicated “Video” tab to “Reels.” This reflects Meta’s strong focus on short-form video content, a format that has proven incredibly popular across its family of apps. It’s a strategic move that aims to unify the video experience on Facebook, potentially making it more dynamic and engaging for both creators and viewers.
