Links and videos

Paste a web address and DarkRef turns it into the right thing: a link card, a moving GIF or a video you can play on the board.

(02)All platformsFree

How to

  1. Copy a link and paste it onto the board. It becomes a card with the page's title, and shows the page's picture when there is one.
  2. Paste a YouTube or Vimeo link to get a video that plays right on the board.
  3. Right-click a link and choose Show as card for a smaller card. Show preview brings the picture back.

Tips

  • Links to GIFs keep moving.
  • Right-click a YouTube video to set the time it starts and ends at.
  • Instagram and Facebook videos play on the board too. If one can't, Play opens it on the site.
  • TikTok links show the video's picture and open in TikTok.
  • On a touch screen, press and hold instead of right-clicking.
