Move your Flip videos to ScreenPal

Looking for a Flip alternative? ScreenPal has you covered! Many educators were dismayed to learn that Flip is becoming part of Microsoft Teams, and will no longer be available as a free tool for teachers and students to use.

As a ScreenPal user, you already have the best alternative to host and share your Flip videos, plus empower your learners to record video responses. We’ve put together a quick guide to help you get started!

With ScreenPal, you can host unlimited videos for free. There are no bandwidth or storage limits, and you can fully control your video privacy to ensure your students’ content is secure.
