Transcript

Got a scratch voiceover or music? Click Add audio track, under the timeline, and choose the file. Your frames stretch to fit the audio, and its waveform sits beneath them, showing where each line falls. On a paid plan, drag the edge of a frame to fit it to the audio.

To show each frame's voiceover line, open Settings, above the timeline, and turn on Show subtitles. Your client sees them too.

Then click Share, top right. Copy the link, or add your client's email and Boords sends it. They press play without an account, and can comment on any frame as it plays.
