August 2025 updates - GIF preview, thumbnail improvements and more

Let’s go through what we got done in August 2025 in NeetoRecord.

Enhancements ✨

✅ Thumbnail upload improvements

We’ve made several improvements to make thumbnail uploads smoother and more consistent:

• You can now upload both JPEG and PNG thumbnails for more flexibility.

• Uploaded thumbnails now stay in place without flickering or reverting.

• After uploading a thumbnail, the video resets to 00:00 and refreshes, making the new thumbnail visible right away.

• You’ll now get a clear confirmation message when a thumbnail upload succeeds.

✅ GIF preview improvements

We’ve enhanced the GIF preview feature for better usability in Gmail, Google Docs, and other platforms that don’t support embedding:

• Clearer labeling as “GIF preview” so its purpose is obvious.

• Updated text and description to explain higher click rates vs plain links.

• New preview design to show how a GIF will appear inside Gmail.

• Ability to copy the GIF thumbnail directly for sharing.

✅ Split and trim feedback

While editing videos, you’ll now see a clear message that editing is in progress. Additional edits are blocked until the current action finishes, removing confusion about whether trimming is complete.
