I just discovered something awesome

[fifilur]

I've been sooooo annoyed by fb for a while now. I've hated that they play videos automatically and I've been hiding a lot of video posts because of it. But, just now, I discovered that I could turn it of. YAY!!!!! I wish I had gone to check my sttings long ago, but super excited anyway to not have this problem anymore!

I have got to set mine too. I hate it too when they automatically play.

Where is this setting?

I keep the volume on my computer off, otherwise it would bother me, too. (I started doing it in college when I had a roommate and worked late at night, but after additional years of trying not to disturb nursing or sleeping babies it's habit.)

Lydia, go to settings and at the bottom of the left column you find video clips or something like that. I have the Swedish version, so I don't know the exact wording they use in English. Click it and choose off.

Same instructions but the label is Videos

Hmmm. That isn't there in my Settings. Weird.

I always have my volume turned off too! It could be playing away and I would never know it!

Oh this annoys me too! I hate when the videos start automatically playing on my phone as I am scrolling down my feed. I may touch the screen to scroll down a bit more and accidentally hit a video clip and then it opens up to full screen....drives me crazy.

Awesome! I just turned mine off!
