Facebook Video Player gets update: New functions and design. Facebook is updating its video player with a consistent design, improved recommendations and new controls to optimize the experience.
Portrait videos automatically display in full screen mode, while a new full screen option has been added for landscape content. In addition, a new function now allows users to rewind ten seconds in the video, which can be particularly advantageous for longer content. The update is rolling out to iOS and Android users in the US and Canada, with plans to roll it out globally in the coming months.
