FAQ

videos.me collects video messages from a group through one link and turns them into one film. You create a collection and share the link; everyone records in their browser; we stitch the clips in the order you choose. It is used for birthdays, memorials, farewells, weddings, team events, and customer testimonials.

Three steps. Create a collection and get a link. Share the link: anyone who opens it records a short video in their browser, on any phone or laptop. When you are ready, tick the clips you want, drag them into order, and compile: one film, ready in minutes, to watch, share with a private link, or download.

Two ways to pay. Pay as you go charges $0.35 per video received, with nothing if no one replies and nothing ever locked on that path. Flat-rate bundles unlock up to 10 ($7.99), 25 ($19.99), or 50 ($34.99) videos you pick. Creating a collection is free: gather for up to 60 days, with room for everyone you would invite, no card.

Free to start: creating a collection, sharing the link, and gathering are free with no card for up to 60 days, with room for everyone you would invite, and you can watch the first two that arrive (watch-only until you unlock). Compiling the film, watching everything, sharing, and downloading unlock when you enroll in pay as you go or buy a bundle. Unlocked videos are yours for life.

No. Contributors open your link and record in the browser on any phone or laptop, with an upload option for videos they already have. You are the only one who needs an account.

There are no limits. The same link works for three contributors or three hundred, and a collection of four good clips is a real film rather than a failed one. Bundles unlock up to 10, 25, or 50 videos you pick; on pay as you go you are charged for what arrives, so the size of the group is your decision rather than a plan you have to fit.

You choose when you create the collection: 30 seconds, 1 minute, or 2 minutes per video. The recorder stops when it reaches that limit, so pick one a little above what you expect people to say. A cap set too tight cuts someone off mid sentence, and short messages are fine either way: nobody has to use the whole time.

Free collections gather clips for up to 60 days. Bundles and pay as you go keep collecting for their full streaming window of a year, extendable.

Yes. Download it in full quality and it is yours, on your own storage, for as long as you keep it. You can also share it with a private link.

Collections are private to you: contributors cannot see each other’s clips, and links use long unguessable tokens. Share the finished film only with the people you choose.

Phone-first, deliberately: portrait clips recorded on phones render full-frame in the finished film rather than boxed, and the recorder falls back through video formats so older browsers still work.

It keeps gathering, with room for everyone you would invite, until the window closes. The moment that matters is wanting to use the videos, and you upgrade in place: same link, every video kept. Enroll pay as you go to see and keep everything as it arrives, or buy a bundle and pick which videos to unlock. Videos collected while free stay free, pay as you go only bills the ones that arrive after you upgrade.

Stated plainly so you can choose well: there is no video editor, no timeline, no themes or music, no photo slots, and no printed keepsake. Clips are stitched clean in your order. If you want a produced, themed montage, a tool like Tribute or VidDay fits better, and our comparison pages say so.
