Learn how Flipsnack's media library (uploads) functions today and the exciting updates that will improve its efficiency soon.
What is Flipsnack's media library?
The media library is a dedicated space where your uploaded images are stored within the app. You can add images from various sections of Flipsnack, making it easy to include them at every step of your design process.
Here’s where you can upload images once you're in the app:
Add logo to your workspace
- Click the Settings tab in the bottom-left corner
- Select Workspace from the left sidebar
- Under Brand your workspace, click Select logo
- Upload a logo for your workspace, this replaces the Flipsnack logo in the upper-left corner
2. Branding (for public-facing assets)
Click the Branding tab in the left menu and then you can pick the images you want for:
- Favicon
- Header logo
- Social media image
- Brand logo
These assets are used when your flipbooks are shared or embedded publicly.
3. My Account
Click your profile icon at the top right corner, select My Account, and upload your profile photo to personalize your account.
4. Flipbook details
Send emails with your logo and brand your QR code for downloads. You can add a logo to your flipbook and upload a background image.
5. Using shopping interactions
In the Design Studio, if you add a shopping button and click on Shop Settings, you can upload a custom logo that will appear in product-related actions such as order options and PDF downloads. This helps reinforce your branding throughout the shopping experience in your flipbook.
Media files in Design Studio
The main place to manage your images is the Uploads tab, located in the left-side panel of the Design Studio.
Here, you’ll find two sections:
-
My Uploads – for your personal files
-
Team Uploads – shared media accessible to your teammates
You can use these uploaded images in various areas:
-
Interactions: As covers for embeds, spotlight effects, slideshows, pop-up slideshows, shopping buttons, and more
-
Elements: Insert images into shapes (image masks) or backgrounds
Uploading images at each step of your workflow ensures consistency and saves time—especially when reusing logos, product images, or branded backgrounds.
What’s new in the upcoming version?
In the new version, instead of uploading images in different sections, there will be one central place to manage your media. Entering the Design Studio and looking at the side navigation, you'll access the “Uploads tab”, where all your images will be stored. The organization with folders remains unchanged, being able to sort files within the two sections: “My Uploads” and “Team Uploads”, just like in the present. This makes it easier to access and manage your files whenever you need them.
With this new media library, you'll have all your branding and design images in one place, ready for quick and easy use—simplifying your workflow even more.
