How do I add videos to Gamma?

Learn how to add a video to your Gamma presentation, document, or site by embedding it from YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, Wistia, or TikTok, and how to add a video from your camera roll in the Gamma mobile app.

Introduction

You can add a video to your gamma by embedding one that is hosted on YouTube, Vimeo, Loom, Wistia, or TikTok. If you are using the Gamma mobile app, you can also add a video straight from your camera roll.

  • In your gamma, click where you would like the video to go.

  • Type /video and select the site your video is hosted on: YouTube videos, Vimeo videos, Loom recording, Wistia, or TikTok.

💎 Pro Tip: Make sure your video is set to public or unlisted so everyone viewing your gamma can watch it.

  • Open your gamma in the Gamma mobile app.

  • Tap where you would like the video to go and choose to add a video.
