If you haven’t discovered how to do this yet, read on to find out!

How to an Image as a Presentation Background

1. First, add a new object.

2. Then, tap and hold the up or down layer icons.

3. After that, you’ll see a pop-up alert on your screen. Tap the Make Fullscreen option.

4. Next, tap your object again to add your image, then pinch and zoom to place your image.

…And that’s it! Now you can add new objects on top, and you can always tap the up/down layer buttons to change the order of your objects.

*Just as an FYI, each Flow screen is 1024 pixels by 748 pixels, so if you want to have an image that first perfectly, use that size! You can use a free image editing tool like pixlr.com to size your image.
