“Soon, you’ll be able to film a short, looping video clip that will play for anyone who visits your profile,” the company said in its announcement.
You can take the video, which lasts about 7 seconds, through the Facebook mobile app, letting you add “temporary version of your profile picture” which will revert back to your usual profile picture after a specified time.
“Profile videos will let [you] show a part of yourself you couldn’t before, and add a new dimension to your profile,” said Facebook in a blog post announcing the change.
