Keep reading to learn more about each one.
Show Video Controls
Show/hide the video controls (mute, timestamp, speed-up video, and full-screen mode) at the top of your videoask. Learn more about video controls here.
Pause auto-play
By default, videoasks auto-play on mute. Pause auto-play to freeze the video in the first step of your videoask so respondents must push play to see and hear the video.

Oversize the video button
Subtly encourage video recording by increasing the size of the video option or keep all response option buttons the same size.
Note: You can also oversize the Audio option by adding ?audiofirst to the end of your videoask URL.
Show videoask title
Show/hide the videoask title on the first step of your videoask.
Note: This option does not work if you've added overlay text.

Button Border Radius
Control the border radius of all filled buttons (except circular confirmation buttons when recording video or audio).
Reply notifications
VideoAsk sends your respondents an email notification every time you reply to their submissions. If you'd like to use an alternate notification system (such as text messages or another email service via Zapier), you can disable these email notifications for each videoask by disabling the toggle.
⚠️ Important: If you turn this setting off without setting up an alternate notification system via another tool (like Make), your respondents will not be notified when you reply to them.
Find out more about managing your notifications.
Transcription Settings
You can select the language spoken in your videoasks so that they're more accurately transcribed.
Note: Transcriptions are generated directly after uploading or recording a video to your videoask. If you update the transcription language after adding videos, you will need to re-upload or re-record your videos in order for the chosen language to apply to the transcription.
You can also activate Filter profanities to detect inappropriate language and filter it out of your captions/transcripts for video and audio recordings. Removed words will be marked with an asterisk. Text responses will not be edited.
You can learn more about editing transcriptions and captions.
