Upload your first video

The fastest path from a smartphone clip to a tagged, shareable video. iPhone or web — both work, the flow is the same in either.

1. 1

   Open the upload screen

   

   In the iOS app, tap the Videos tab and switch to Local. On web, click Upload in the top nav.
2. 2

   Pick your video

   On iPhone, your camera roll opens with horse-detection badges on the videos worth uploading. On web, drag a file into the dropzone or click to browse. MP4 and MOV both work. There's no hard length limit, but typical competition rounds are well under 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Tag the horse and rider

   

   Type the horse name. If you've used it before, autocomplete suggests it; otherwise it's added to your roster. Same for rider. Location is optional but very useful for finding videos later.
4. 4

   Start the upload

   

   If you picked multiple videos, the Copy to remaining button propagates the first round's metadata to the rest. Hit Upload — the progress bar shows the upload, then a transcoding step that produces lower-resolution copies for slow connections. On iPhone you can lock the phone or switch apps; the upload keeps running in the background.
5. 5

   Watch it back

   When the row says "Ready", open the video. Try the slow-motion button — that's the moment most people decide equiReelz earns its keep.
