Add Dubsmash Videos in PowerPoint

In our Sharing Dubsmash Videos tutorial, we showed how you can export your Dubsmash videos on iOS devices to your Photos folder. In this tutorial, you will learn how you can insert these videos within your PowerPoint slides.

Do note that this tutorial will look at using Dubsmash videos in PowerPoint for iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads. If you want to use Dubsmash videos in other PowerPoint versions, you will have to forward such videos to yourself as an email attachment – and then insert within PowerPoint as a regular video clip.

In this tutorial, we will use PowerPoint for iPad – proceed with these steps to follow with us:

1. Launch PowerPoint on iPad. Navigate to the slide where you want to add your Dubsmash video (see Figure 1)

3. Within the Videos gallery, you will find an album named Dubsmash as shown highlighted in red within Figure 2. All videos that Dubsmash exports are saved to this album. Select this album by tapping.
4. In the Dubsmash folder, select any of the videos available by tapping (see Figure 3).

You can play the video now by using the Play button (highlighted in red in Figure 4, below) to make sure that you have selected the correct video clip. Once you are happy with the chosen video clip, tap the Use button (highlighted in blue within Figure 4, below).
