Facebook outlined several new features for videos that it is testing with plans to launch “in the coming months,” including suggested videos, as well as the ability to watch videos while multitasking and to save videos for later viewing.
The social network is also testing a dedicated destination for videos, where users will be able to see videos they have saved–along with videos from friends, pages they follow and other publishers–in one place.
Vice president of product management Will Cathcart said in a Newsroom post that the social network is putting a priority on giving users more flexibility in terms of how and when they view videos.
On that note, Cathcart discussed the suggested videos feature Facebook has been testing for its iPhone users:
Suggested videos is one of the features we’ve been testing on iPhone, making it easy to discover multiple related videos in a row after you tap on a video from News Feed.
