What is Facebook's video upload limit?

Facebook allows video uploads up to 10GB and 240 minutes long. However, Facebook Feed videos perform best under 1GB. Stories are limited to 1GB and Reels to 4GB. Smaller files upload and process much faster.

What video format is best for Facebook?

Facebook recommends MP4 with H.264 codec. For feed posts, use 1080p resolution. For stories and reels, use 1080x1920 (9:16 vertical). MP4 is processed fastest by Facebook's encoding pipeline.

Why does my Facebook video look blurry after uploading?

Facebook compresses all uploaded videos. To get the best quality, upload at 1080p with high bitrate. Give Facebook time to finish processing — videos initially appear in low quality and improve over several minutes after upload.

What resolution should I use for Facebook Reels?

Facebook Reels should be 1080x1920 pixels (9:16 vertical format) for full-screen display on mobile. This is the same format used by Instagram Reels. Keep file size under 4GB.

How do I compress a video for Facebook Messenger?

Facebook Messenger has a 25MB limit for video files. Use this tool to compress your video below 25MB. Reduce resolution to 720p and use medium quality for the best balance between quality and file size.
