Paper has an option to disable autoplay. I'd be surprised if the main app didn't.

It can be disabled and you should use is. Saves a ton of data and speeds up for device.

Unless Facebook is actively trying to slant the number of video views, auto-play should just be disabled. It really doesn't even need to be an option to turn it back on, because I doubt that many would want to.

It should be disabled by default. Absolutely the most obnoxious thing about FB.
