Facebook does not show you exactly who viewed your videos. You can see the total number of views on a video, but the identities of viewers remain private
. The only exceptions are:
- You can see the profiles of people who liked, commented on, or shared your video, since these are voluntary engagements
- For Facebook Stories, you can see who viewed them within 24 hours before they disappear, including profiles of viewers who are your friends or in your network
- For Facebook Live videos, you can see who is watching in real time and who interacted during the live stream
Facebook keeps video viewership private mainly for user privacy reasons, as views can be counted after just 30 seconds and users may not want their viewing activity publicly visible
. In summary, while you can track engagement metrics and see who interacted with your videos, Facebook does not provide a way to see the full list of people who simply watched your videos
