Record and Play Videos

Users can record videos directly in the Android app if the feature is turned on. Portal Admins will need to allow videos in the template editor for users to see this feature. 

 

1. Tap on the camera/video icon on a field. If a field allows video, you will see the icon of a camera and video camera. If a field does not allow video, you will only see an icon of a camera.
