How to use

How to use the photo slideshow maker

Build a product showcase, a travel recap, or a short visual lesson in three steps. Start with the images you already have; no script, voiceover, or AI generation is needed.

  1. Add and arrange your pictures

    Choose JPG, PNG, or WebP files from your device. Add several at once, then use the earlier and later buttons to put them in order. Remove unwanted slides without changing the remaining captions.

  2. Set the pace and add words

    Select a picture and enter its duration in seconds. Give detailed diagrams longer and keep simple photos brief. Add a title or description, choose its position, and adjust the color and size. Apply one duration to all slides when you want an even rhythm.

  3. Preview and download

    Play the entire sequence in the photo slideshow maker. Choose landscape, portrait, or square framing, and decide whether pictures fit fully or fill the screen. Download the result as a silent MP4. A short dissolve is optional; straight cuts preserve clear boundaries.

Different timing for every picture

Each slide in the photo slideshow maker has its own display time, from half a second to one minute. The total duration updates as you edit, so you can plan the length before exporting.

Text that belongs to each image

Captions stay attached when you reorder pictures. Add a product name, explain a screenshot, or label a memory. Clear the text field to leave a photograph unobstructed.

Your pictures stay on your device

The photo slideshow maker prepares images and renders video in your browser. Keep the tab open until the download begins. Reloading or closing the page clears this unsaved project.

Ways to use it

Turn a set of pictures into a story

A slideshow works when the order of images carries the message. Give viewers enough time to understand each picture and its caption.

Product and portfolio showcases

Begin with an overview, follow with details, and finish with a summary. Label each image with the product name, material, or feature rather than repeating the same caption.

Travel and event recaps

Arrange photographs in chronological order or group them by location. Choose portrait framing for vertical viewing and check that Fill does not crop faces near the edges.

Lessons and screenshot walkthroughs

Show one step per slide. Give detailed screenshots more time than simple title cards, and use short captions to tell viewers what to look at.

Framing and pacing

Prepare your slideshow for its viewing format

Choose the final shape before adjusting captions. Landscape, portrait, and square layouts can show the same image very differently.

Fit preserves the full picture

Use Fit for diagrams, screenshots, or photos whose edges matter. The background fills any space around the image; choose a color that suits the collection.

Fill creates an edge-to-edge image

Use Fill when a full frame matters more than showing every edge. Review each slide after changing formats, especially when mixing landscape and portrait photos.

Let the content set the rhythm

Start with a shared duration, then extend slides that need reading time. Use straight cuts for clear steps or a short dissolve for a softer transition between photographs.

Photo slideshow FAQ

Can I set a different duration for each image?
Yes. Select any slide and change its seconds field independently. With a dissolve, the next image starts fading in during the end of the current slide; the total video length stays the same.
Does this photo slideshow maker add music?
This version creates silent videos. It focuses on pictures, individual timing, and text. You can add a soundtrack to the downloaded MP4 in another editor.
What are the photo slideshow maker limits?
Add up to 30 images, each no larger than 20 MB, with a combined limit of 120 MB. Keep the finished video within five minutes. MP4 export requires a browser that supports local video encoding.
Can I make vertical or square photo videos?
Yes. Choose landscape at 1280 × 720, portrait at 720 × 1280, or square at 1080 × 1080. Review every slide after changing the format because Fill can crop parts of a picture.
Can each photo have its own text?
Yes. Each slide has an independent caption with its own position, size, and color. Captions move with their pictures when you reorder the slides.
How can I add narration to my slideshow?
Export the slideshow as an MP4, then open Add Voiceover to Video. Upload the exported clip, write separate narration segments, and place them beside the relevant slides.
Can I reopen an unfinished slideshow later?
The slideshow is an unsaved editing session in your browser. Download the MP4 before refreshing or closing the tab. Keep your source images if you want to make another version later.
