Backgrounds Best Practices
- Keep it simple – Solid colors, gradients, or minimal graphic elements work best.
- Avoid photography and busy patterns – High-contrast or "loud" images make text hard to read and hurt accessibility.
Note: Story backgrounds are responsive and adapt to different screen sizes when videos are viewed via a shared link. Because of this, simple backgrounds such as gradients, subtle patterns, and abstract graphics tend to provide the most consistent viewing experience.
Backgrounds that include logos, text, screenshots, or detailed photography may appear cropped, stretched, or repositioned on certain devices and screen sizes when viewed via link.
This limitation does not apply to videos shared as MP4 files, since the video dimensions are fixed and will display exactly as exported.
