Step 3: You should now be at the Zype screen. Go to select file and choose wherever your video is stored. (I’m using an iphone for this example, and android videos might be saved in a different folder). Select and then add your video. It should show it uploading.

If your video’s file name doesn’t appear, go back to step 2 and try again.
