How to Post a Looping Video on Facebook

Are you tired of boring static photos as your Facebook cover photo? Well, you're in luck! With Facebook's latest update, businesses can now replace their static cover photos with looping videos. And the best part? You can easily upload an MP4 file and it will loop endlessly – easy!

To get started, simply post an MP4 file on Facebook via a computer or mobile device. The video will play back automatically in a seamless loop for 90 seconds. That's right, no more boring static photos! With this feature, you can showcase your brand in a whole new way.

But before we dive into the details, let's talk about restrictions. You can only upload cinemagraphs to Instagram via the mobile app, so you'll need to figure out how to get the MP4 file onto your phone or tablet. Once you've uploaded it, you can share it on Facebook and it will loop endlessly.

Another option is to host your cinemagraph on an external site like Giphy, imgur, or tumblr. You can also upload it to a server of your own. This way, you can easily share it on Facebook without any hassle.

But what about the quality? Unfortunately, some users have complained that their video files aren't being played back in high definition. That's why we recommend using video files instead of GIFs when posting cinemagraphs to social media platforms.

To get started, simply upload an MP4 file and it will loop endlessly on Facebook. You can also use stock cinemagraphs like our gallereplay cinemagraphs, which are optimized for Facebook. And if you'd like to learn more about using one of our stock cinemagraphs as a Facebook cover video on your business page, check out our blogpost on the subject.

So there you have it – easy peasy! With these simple steps, you can post a looping video on Facebook and showcase your brand in a whole new way.
