A new update to Facebook live streams which went live today (February 19) means users will need to download the videos - or risk losing them forever.
Meta said: "If you need additional time to download your old live videos, we are providing the option to defer deletion for an additional six months.
Facebook will also send emails and alerts through app notifications to prompt saving before your archive is completely deleted, giving users a chance to download their videos.
All previous live videos will also be deleted after 30 days - so users should save them now if they want to keep them.
