Android/Windows mobile device

We currently use Vimeo for our free video tutorials. The fastest way to load our videos to your Android or Windows device is via Vimeo's Desktop website.

 

Step 1: Using your movie device, access the Photzy Vimeo page here. The Photzy Vimeo page will open in your browser in a new tab.

Note: By default, Vimeo launches its mobile version on most mobile devices. Downloading the videos requires using the Desktop version of Vimeo instead of the mobile version. Proceed to the next step to switch to Desktop version. 

If you are using Windows on a tablet, Vimeo may already load its desktop version. If the format looks different from the photo above, proceed to Step 5.

 

Step 2: Click on the blue Vimeo icon on the top left hand corner of the page to open the menu.

Step 3: From the menu, click on the settings icon (a gear symbol) on the top right corner.
