Phone videos

Videos filmed on a phone go in as they are, from your computer or straight from your phone. Montage turns them upright and fixes their colours.

Add them from your phone

  1. Open app.getmontage.ai in your phone’s browser and sign in.
  2. On New video, press Add from Photos, Files and pick your videos.
  3. Keep the page open until each video is uploaded. Then it says « you can leave ».
  4. Describe your video and press Make my video.

On a phone, an upload can stop without a word of warning. Keep the page open while it uploads; if a file stops, press Resume and it goes on from where it stopped.

Questions

Do I need to send the videos to my computer first?

No. Add them straight from your phone, or from your computer if they are already there.

Is my HDR video exported in HDR?

On the web, no: normal colours. The Mac app exports HDR when your footage is HDR.

Where is « Contact support » on a phone?

In the menu.
