While most social media platforms are aiming to ramp up their video content, Facebook is looking to take one video feature away.
As of February 7, Facebook will be removing profile videos.
If users don’t replace their video with a photo by then, the cover image of their video will become their new profile picture.

For brands that will need to replace their profile videos with a new image, keep in mind that Facebook profile pictures display at 170 x 170 pixels on desktop and 128 x 128 pixels on smartphones.
