Open the TV app. It's a black app that contains the image of a video monitor.

- QuestionWhy is my video on my iPhone not going on to Facebook?
Community AnswerCheck your WiFi connection. If that is working, check to see if there's music on the video that you don't own, or if you are trying to upload someone else's video. It may be blocked for copyright reasons. You should also check your settings because you may need to change something to upload videos. - QuestionI am going on vacation without my MacBookPro; I have mp4 video files that I want to watch on my iPhone 6s while I am away. They are on a memory stick with built in WiFi, but I don't know how to access and watch them on the iPhone. Can anyone help?
Community AnswerPut the files on your laptop, and install iTunes. Plug your device into your laptop and drag the files into iTunes and onto your device. Then synchronize everything by clicking on the iPhone logo on the top left and then on "synchronize now" on the bottom right. After it is synchronized, your videos should appear on your device.
