What steps to follow to share a video in Messenger stories?
On Facebook, although many did not know this, there are 2 ways to share a video. These are: sharing or uploading the final video on our profile and uploading the video on our Messenger story . Do not think that these are the same things because the 2 have slight differences.
If you upload or share a final post, it will stay on your profile until you decide to delete it. But if you share a story on Messenger, it will be deleted after 24 hours. In addition, it can only be seen in the stories section . But without further ado, here’s how to upload a video to Messenger’s history:
- Open the Messenger app. At the top of the screen you can see the bubbles of the active people and in the first bubble on the left there will be an empty one with the + sign and you have to press it.
- Once you have pressed it, all the multimedia files of your devices will be displayed. Now, choose the video you want.
- Messenger only allows you to upload stories with a lapse of 20 seconds, choose the part you want to upload, upload it and that’s it.
