You can also annotate over video files such as mp4 or wav. To annotate over videos, click on the three dotted icon and select Annotate.

This is the video annotation page. The top left of the panel allows you to zoom/ fit the video file to your preference. The multi-select icon allows you to multi-select several annotations you’ve made on the screen.

b) The middle portion of the page contains your annotation choices. You can choose either View, Annotate, Shapes, or Insert.

i) Annotate allows you to insert comments, texts, a square or draw directly on the video file.

ii) Shapes allows you to draw specific shapes or arrows over the video file. 

iii) Insert allows you to add in signatures/premade and custom stamps onto the video file. 

Note: Annotations added to a video file will be visible depending on the player time when the annotation was done.
