Image, Video, and Gallery

Fastory lets you insert your media content (images, GIFs, and videos) directly into your experiences. All this content is centralized in the Gallery, accessible from the editor, so you can easily find and reuse it.

Media content brings your experiences to life: it captures your audience's attention, illustrates your message, and makes every screen more engaging. With Fastory, you can add an image, an animated GIF, or a video to a screen, then find all your media in one place thanks to the Gallery.

The Gallery stores all the media content you have used. You can access it from the editor by clicking a media component (image, video, etc.) to open the settings, then clicking the + sign. There you will find your previously uploaded media, ready to be reused in your experiences.

You can add this type of content in several ways:

You can add a transparent GIF and prevent an unwanted background from appearing: simply enable the dedicated option in the component settings.

You can add videos in several ways:

Warning: 4K videos are not supported.

To add a cover (image or video), the process is the same as adding regular media content. The only difference is the dimensions: a cover must fill the entire smartphone screen, so the user can scroll and move on to the next screen. Make sure to use high-quality, mobile-friendly content so your audience gets the most out of your experience.

Upload your image directly from your computer, then find it at any time in the Gallery to reuse it on other screens.

Pick a royalty-free image from Pixabay or an animated GIF from Giphy, without leaving the Fastory editor.

Add it from your YouTube, Facebook, or Instagram account instead of manually re-uploading it.

Add a transparent GIF and enable the dedicated option to prevent an unwanted background from appearing behind your content.

Follow the same process as for regular media content, making sure your image or video fills the entire smartphone screen.

You can insert images, animated GIFs, and videos into your Fastory experiences.

All your media content is centralized in the Gallery, accessible from the editor by clicking a media component and then the + sign. This way, you can easily find and reuse it.

Use the Pixabay source for royalty-free images and videos, and Giphy for animated GIFs, directly from your media component's settings.

No, 4K videos are not supported. Plan for a lower-resolution format, preferably optimized for mobile.

Add a transparent GIF and enable the transparency option in the component settings: the unwanted background will disappear.

The process for adding one is identical, but a cover must fill the entire smartphone screen so the user can scroll and move on to the next screen. Remember to use a high-quality visual, suited to mobile.
