Edit videos for Facebook

Editing video for Facebook doesn't require opening a desktop editor. Most of the work is three things: taking the right part of a long recording, switching to 9:16 (Reels) · 1:1 framing and burning in captions. BeamTake does all three in one flow; the export downloads as 1080×1920 · 1080×1080 or goes straight to your account.

Which settings matter for Facebook?

Facebook viewers watch autoplay, mostly muted and decide within the first 3 seconds. On screen, the caption and button strip at the bottom, so putting text there is wasted.

How content travels on Facebook

On Facebook, video mostly starts automatically and silently in the feed, and it spreads through groups and pages. The audience skews older than on other platforms, which rewards clear, readable storytelling.

Practical notes for Facebook

  • Muted autoplay dominates: a clip without captions is close to a blank frame here.
  • The audience skews older; small captions don't get read, so prefer a bold style like Punch or Ribbon.
  • Post the same content to a page and to a group with a different opening line.

FAQ

Do I need to install anything?

No, it runs in the browser. Even screen recording happens in the browser.

Can I upload my own file?

Yes. MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM and audio files work, or paste a link.

Do I have to connect my Facebook account?

No. Without connecting, download the export and upload it yourself. Connect it to schedule posts from the calendar.

What's the export quality?

Every plan exports at 1080 pixels on the short side. The Studio plan unlocks 4K (2160 on the short side); a lower-resolution source isn't artificially upscaled.
