The capability to review previously viewed content on the Facebook platform allows users to re-engage with videos and live streams they have encountered. This feature logs videos watched, providing a chronological record of viewing activity within the application. This record is accessible through the platform’s settings and activity log.
Accessing this viewing record offers several benefits. It facilitates the rediscovery of content that might have been of interest but subsequently forgotten. It also provides a means of managing privacy by allowing the removal of specific videos from the viewing history. Furthermore, the function offers a way to understand one’s own viewing habits and patterns on the social media platform. Previously, locating viewed videos required extensive scrolling or searching; this feature centralizes that information.
