Short videos and live streaming are both common on Facebook, where people frequently “like” videos to express their admiration. However, how can you revisit films you’ve liked on Facebook? Facebook’s design may have changed in 2024, but it’s still simple to access your favourite videos. You can find the videos you’ve liked on the desktop and mobile apps by following this tutorial.
KEYPOINT: Launch Facebook and sign in with your credentials. Select the search option located at the top of the page. Enter “My liked videos” or “Videos liked by me” after typing. Facebook will compile a list of every video that you have rated.
Watching Facebook’s Favourite Videos (Mobile App)
Use these easy methods to go to your favourite videos on the Facebook mobile app:
- Step 1: Launch the Facebook app.
- Verify that the Facebook app is installed on your device using the most recent version. If you haven’t logged in already, open the app and log in.
- Step 2: Go to Your Profile
- Depending on whether you’re using iOS or Android, tap on your profile image or the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) at the bottom or top right of your screen. From the list of options, choose Profile.
- Step 3: Get to the “Activity Log”
- Once on your profile, click the three dots (…) that are next to your photo. After swiping down, choose Activity Log. This feature displays every action you’ve taken recently on Facebook, including likes and comments.
- Step 4: Use “Likes and Reactions” as a filter
- The Activity Log has multiple filtering options. Select Likes and Reactions from the dropdown menu after tapping on Filter. This will restrict the posts, videos, and other stuff that appears in your activity log to those that you have liked.
- Step 5: Select Only Videos
- To locate the videos, navigate through your favourites. The posts and videos to which you have responded will be shown to you in chronological order, beginning with the most recent. If you wish to concentrate only on videos, search for posts that are designated as “video” or images with a video thumbnail.
Facebook Liked Video Viewing (Desktop)
Here’s how to access your favourite videos on Facebook’s desktop version if that’s more your style:
- Step 1: Use your browser to access Facebook
- Launch your web browser and navigate to facebook.com. In case you haven’t done so, log into your account.
- Step 2: Go to your profile
- To access your personal profile, click on your photo at the top of the page.
- Step 3: Open the Activity Log
- Click the three dots (…) beneath your cover photo on your profile, then choose Activity Log from the dropdown menu.
- Step 4: Sort by Favourites
- Click on Interactions to open the menu on the left side of the Activity Log page, then choose Likes and Reactions. This will display a list of all the videos you’ve liked or responded to.
- Step 5: Go Through Your Favourite Videos
- To locate the videos you’ve liked, you’ll need to navigate through the list, just as with the mobile app. To find the particular videos, look for the thumbnails or video icon.
Why Am I Unable to Locate a Particularly Good Video?
There are a number of reasons why a certain video might not be available in your favourite activity:
- The video was removed: The video will no longer be visible in your favourite list if the original poster removed it.
- Configuring privacy: You might not be able to access the video anymore if the uploader altered its privacy settings.
- Facebook Archiving: Older activity records may occasionally be archived by Facebook, which makes them more difficult to locate.
How to Mark Videos as Favourites for Quick Access
Try bookmarking or saving videos if you are having trouble finding your way around your favorited videos. Here’s how to do it:
- Save Videos: Click the three dots (⋯) in the upper right corner of any video post, then choose Save video. This will save the movie to your Saved folder so you may see it at a later time.
- Retrieve Stored Videos: Navigate to the Saved section from the left-side menu (on desktop) or the Menu (on mobile) to view saved videos. All of the videos you have saved over time will be displayed here.
Concluding Remarks
Facebook will still give users a variety of options in 2024 for interacting with and revisiting their favourite content, including videos. Whichever way you decide to use the desktop or mobile software, these simple steps make it easy to access the videos you’ve liked. By regularly checking your Activity Log and using the Save feature, you can easily keep track of and enjoy all the content you’ve engaged with on Facebook.
