Only the “highest-tiered” team subscriptions can upload mp3s. Those of us who pay for individual plans to use in our college classrooms do not get that perk :/
Hello, Thank you for your feedback! Uploading video and audio from your own device is only available for our highest-tiered team subscriptions and is not currently available for individual subscriptions. The following plans allow this feature:
You can use video from YouTube and Vimeo instead, including audio you have uploaded yourself there. My apologies for any inconveniences this causes! If you have any more questions or want any clarifications, please don't hesitate to reach out again!
The subscription tiers are absolutely insane, £7.5K minimum to play a sound as part of a question now and you have removed the ability to add youtube, it is a complete joke
Hi Seapeak!
Thank you for sharing your feedback - we understand these changes can be frustrating. The YouTube removal was required due to updates in YouTube’s terms and conditions, and we understand this impacts your experience.
All available details and suggested alternatives (like Vimeo or uploaded videos with certain plans) can be found in this help article.
