Friendship anniversary videos. In the previous year, the social media giant has been expanding the variety of videos its 1.7 billion users watch on the site.

This video shows up on the top of your News Feed the very next day of your birthday, and it basically is a creative montage of all the birthday wishes and photos posted on your wall on your birthday. The social media giant is rolling out a feature called Birthday Recap Videos, which like the Memories video feature, has a preset birthday theme including birthday-related content extracted from the user’s account.

It’s a pretty nice idea, and we’re hearing that you’ll be able to edit the video to add or change the posts that are used, and did we mention it all appears as a cake?!

Facebook is, of course, super helpful for keeping track of friends’ birthdays, and makes it easy to wish a friend well on their big day without going through too much effort. Recently, in the month of February, Facebook has launched Friendship videos that gained huge popularity.

People who use Facebook will see a personalized video a day after their birthday that stitches together photos and posts posted on their timeline during the big day. For this to work, at least three birthday wishes should have been posted on the user’s wall.

Facebook Will Now Collate Birthday Wishes and Show Them to You in a Video
