Hi there, @HappyHours_PhotoBoot đź‘‹
Thank you so much for the feedback!
You can upload GIFs using the Image option:
The widget also gives an option to embed YouTube videos, but I agree that it would be great to upload videos from your device. If this idea gets more votes, we’ll try to consider it in the future updates 🙂

Hello Max,
Thanks for reaching out. I tried to upload GIF using the “image” option but it is not allowing me to upload since GIFs are also small videos with “mp4 extension”.

Ah, got it!
You’re right, the video upload option would be the best fit in this case 🙂

I run a video production company and was planning to use the Blog app, but unfortunately it doesn’t allow you to post a video instead of an image. Please add this ability.

How about adding videos from Kaltura? Or give us a code block so we can paste in widgets from video services?
