To create your video successfully, you need sufficient space on your device. Various factors can influence the total amount of free space you need. As a helpful guideline, if you're planning to create one one-second snippet each day for an entire year, aim for around 3GB of available space. Although the final file will be smaller, the app will need extra space to compile your video effectively. Taking these steps will help ensure a smooth video creation process!

Step 1: Select to start a mash.

While in your project's grid view, tap the play button at the bottom of the screen. This opens the mashing screen.

Step 2: Select the dates to mash.

There are several ways to mash a video: week, month, year, date range, and custom. The current year is the default.

You can choose to make a custom video, which allows you to mash all the snippets in the project, a period or range of time, or arbitrary snippets.

​The week, month, and year options allow you to combine preset periods easily. You can combine the current and previous week/month or any available year.

To mash all the snippets in the project, tap "Select (All)".

To mash a period, press and drag your finger through the calendar.

To mash arbitrary snippets, individually select the snippets you'd like to include in your mash.
​

Tap "Add to Mash" to save your custom selection.

Once you've decided on the length, you can choose whether the video plays forward or backward by tapping the "Backwards" setting. Forward is the default and most common option.

Finally, tap the yellow export button and choose the export quality.

Step 3: Share your video.

Once your video is mashed, you can Share or Save it. The time it takes to mash depends on your device and the number of snippets you're mashing.
