How do I create a Facebook cover video?

Record a video with a camera, your mobile phone, or directly from VEED using your webcam. Upload the recorded file to VEED and start editing. You can then download the edited video to your device and upload it to Facebook!

How can I make a Facebook cover video for free?

VEED’s Facebook cover video maker is free! With VEED, creating an account is optional (and still free!). However, with a VEED account, you can save and access your projects any time, from any device!

Can you still upload a video as your cover photo on Facebook?

Unfortunately not. Since April 2021, Facebook has removed the cover video feature, and only shows a “thumbnail” of the video instead. But that doesn’t mean it’s game over for cover videos! Cover videos are great as intro videos and for adding in your video album for visitors to see. You can also pin or feature posts with a cover video.

What format does a video have to be for Facebook?

Facebook recommends sharing videos as MP4 or MOV. However, you can also share videos in the ASF, MKV, FLV and MPEG formats.

What they say about VEED

Veed is a great piece of browser software with the best team I've ever seen. Veed allows for subtitling, editing, effect/text encoding, and many more advanced features that other editors just can't compete with. The free version is wonderful, but the Pro version is beyond perfect. Keep in mind that this a browser editor we're talking about and the level of quality that Veed allows is stunning and a complete game changer at worst.

The Best & Most Easy to Use Simple Video Editing Software! I had tried tons of other online editors on the market and been disappointed. With VEED I haven't experienced any issues with the videos I create on there. It has everything I need in one place such as the progress bar for my 1-minute clips, auto transcriptions for all my video content, and custom fonts for consistency in my visual branding.
