Kurt Wagner says, “Facebook wants you watching videos. If you already do, it wants you watching more.

The social network is testing a new “related videos” feature that surfaces similar, popular videos after you finish watching one in your mobile News Feed.

Similar to what you might see on YouTube, once a video is done playing in News Feed, you will have the option to re-watch that video, or select a different, related video from a sampling provided by Facebook. The feature, which is only available to a small group of test users on iOS and Android devices, was first reported by TechCrunch.

A Facebook spokesperson confirmed the new feature, but didn’t elaborate on when it will be more widely available”.
