Facebook Pilots Offline Video in India, Stepping Up Competition With YouTube
Posted in: UncategorizedFacebook is piloting a feature in India allowing users to save videos to watch offline, chasing a similar program from Google’s YouTube, as the companies attempt to crack a market ridden with poor internet connectivity.
The move followed feedback from users in the country citing poor video experiences because of limited mobile coverage, Facebook said in a statement.
“We’re testing an option for people to download videos to Facebook while they’re online on good internet connections, to view the video at anytime, online or offline, without using extra mobile data,” the company said.
