Copyright, music and photo permissions

Uploading a music file from your device does not automatically give you permission to put the track in a new video. Photos and recorded audio may carry third-party rights even if you received them through a messaging app.

What music can I include?

Use music you created, music you are authorized to synchronize with video, or recordings under a license that permits your specific use and distribution. Many personal streaming subscriptions do not include synchronization rights.

Why is there no YouTube audio import?

Picmovia does not provide a way to extract audio from YouTube. A streaming link does not automatically grant permission to download a song, reuse the recording or incorporate it into a downloadable video.

Photos and image rights

Consider the privacy and image rights of people shown in photographs, including living relatives. Permission and risk can differ between a private family screening and public distribution on social platforms.
