Guide / Media

Make media expressive, bounded, and readable.

Prepare accessible images, video, and audio without making decoration block the profile.

Start here. Upload through Studio and wait for verification to finish before expecting an asset to publish.

  1. 01

    Finish the upload state

    An unresolved upload is not publish-ready. Keep Studio open through verification, resolve a rejected asset, and confirm the signed preview reloads before publishing.

  2. 02

    Prepare phone backgrounds

    Backgrounds support JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, MP4, and WebM. If your phone saves a background as HEIC or HEIF, export it as JPEG, PNG, WebP, or GIF before adding it in Studio.

  3. 03

    Describe what matters

    Provide a useful label or alternative description for meaningful media. Decorative imagery should not create repetitive announcements or extra keyboard stops.

  4. 04

    Credit profile audio

    Add a clear title and creator credit. Profile audio must wait for entry and a visitor action; tests and previews must never rely on audible playback.

  5. 05

    Respect the first view

    Images keep their aspect ratio, video waits until required, and effects do not determine the largest visible content. Low-data and reduced-motion visitors receive a stable fallback.
