- File Type Basics

  • Size. No single file can be larger than 25MB. If your presentation or video is larger than that, try breaking it up into smaller files and uploading them individually.
  • Originals. If you have a Pro or Educator account, VoiceThread will save and store your original file so that you can allow others to download the original file. If the owner of the VoiceThread allows it, you can right-click (or control-click) on any slide within a VoiceThread to download the original document and save it on your computer.
  • Import from a link. If you enter the direct URL of a file, you can import it right into a VoiceThread, but the link must be absolutely correct. Note that most "links" to videos hosted by online services like YouTube do not point directly to the video file, so they won't work with this upload method. In this case, you'll need to search for a third-party program to download the video on your computer and then upload it from your computer to VoiceThread. Please keep in mind all fair-use and copyright laws when using online content with VoiceThread.
  • Files you definitely can't upload: .zip, .swf, .html, and .txt
