This auto-play video feature is convenient for customers, but it consumes more mobile data, drains more battery, and auto-plays undesirable movies. You can always disable this functionality if you want.

You can manually actually turn these videos off. Follow these steps to turn off the videos playing automatically on your computer. Once you have opted for changes, videos that play automatically on Facebook will not bother you anymore.

The social networking giant made the announcement during a session at the International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) taking place here.

Facebook has built a machine learning model that uses various engagement signals, including feedback from people to identify potentially false content.

The launch of this feature on Wednesday after about six months of testing reveals Facebook's plans to go aggressive on the video streaming space that could help the social networking giant to compete against Google's YouTube.

Facebook videos continue to dominate the social media, driving growth, engagement and media consumption, a new report has said.

The new apps -- for Apple TV, Amazon's Fire TV and Samsung Smart TV -- will provide a more convenient way for users of the social network to view videos on a large screen.

Facebook is getting more exciting. Now it has added some new features and controls for your profile which, among other things, allow you to use a looping video as your profile photo.
