# Upload an Audio or Video File for your Narration

# **Upload an Audio or Video File for your Narration**

Instead of recording directly in Simplebooklet, you can upload an existing **audio** or **video** file to use as your page narration. This is perfect if you already have professional recordings, edited files, or previously recorded content you want to reuse.

|| Available on all plans.


## **How to Upload an Audio or Video File**

1. Open your **Dashboard** and select the Simplebooklet you want to update.

2. Click the **Record** tab at the top of the editor.

3. In the left-hand toolbar, click **Record**. This opens the narration drawer.

4. At the top of the drawer, switch to the **Upload** tab.

5. Click **Select File**.

6. Choose the file you want to upload from your device.

* Uploading an **audio** file (MP3 or WAV) will automatically switch you to **Voice Only Narration**.

* Uploading a **video** file (MP4 recommended) will automatically switch you to **Video Narration**.

7. Once the upload is complete, your narration will appear in the playback bar with a preview.

8. Click **Save Recording** to add your narration to the page.

9. Your uploaded narration is now added to your Simplebooklet.

* **Video files** show a built-in video player directly on the page.

Both appear clean and mobile-friendly for your viewers.
