General FAQs

It depends what your specific needs are, but FlowVella excels at integrating multimedia content (like image galleries, videos, PDFs, audio, and more) into one presentation experience. Presentations or 'Flows' are more like interactive apps than one dimensional slides. FlowVella supports offline content, so once you've downloaded your presentation on one of our apps, you can use it without a WiFi connection - even video files.
FlowVella allows you to create a team and share presentations privately within a group so everyone stays on brand. We've also just introduced Kiosk Mode, where you can turn any presentation into a kiosk or digital sign. For more features and information, you can check out flowvella.com/features

Yes, we take privacy and security very seriously at FlowVella. FlowVella uses SSL and all modern web technology to ensure your content is secure. Please see our page on security. There are multiple privacy options for your Flows (presentations). There are public, protected (or need a link to see), password protected and private.
In a free account, all Flow presentations are posted publicly. With FlowVella Premium, PRO, Student, or Teacher you have the option to post protected, password protected or privately. Find out about privacy, posting, and sharing here and here.
FlowVella is even US Government approved! If you work for a government office or contractor, we are an approved vendor. You can find out more here.

If you’re working on a new Flow and decide you’d like to share it with someone who may want to modify or edit it down the road, it’s simple to do that. When you post your Flow, just make sure to check the box next to “Allow others to duplicate and edit" on the Share Your Flow screen.
If you’ve already created a Flow and have decided that you’d like to allow others to duplicate and edit it, it’s a quick and easy fix. Just open the Flow, and select Post or Share. Check the box next to “Allow others to duplicate and edit”. You can make this modification in either the iPad, iPhone, or Mac app, but not via the web.
The person you are collaborating with can then open the Flow in the Mac app and select the down arrow in the upper right corner to make a copy. In the iPhone/iPad app, from the Library screen, they can tap and hold the presentation, then select duplicate. A new copy of this presentation will be added to their My Flows and can be opened and edited without making any changes to your original presentation.
