How to download and share Facebook videos using your phone and PC

Facebook is the biggest social media platform with over 2.2 billion monthly active users worldwide. The Mark Zuckerberg led social media platform has been introducing new features and acquiring other companies to attract and retain users.

Some of the company’s acquisitions include popular messaging platform WhatsApp and image sharing service Instagram. The company had introduced Stories on both its platforms to take on Snapchat. The company has been promoting users to post videos directly on its platform instead of uploading them on YouTube and then sharing on Facebook for some time now.

Currently, over 85 percent of videos shared on Facebook are native and around 10 percent are YouTube videos. One of the advantages of YouTube videos is that they are very easy to share, which is something that Facebook Videos are not good at. It is hard to share Facebook videos even on the company’s own platforms such as WhatsApp and Instagram.
