See the latest product updates for snappify.
snappify has a new Video element which fits perfectly if you e.g. want to show the result or a product preview during a presentation! 🥳
In first place you can only paste a direct URL to the video from your cloud storage provider. In a later phase we will add the possibility to upload videos directly to snappify.
Until now it was only possible to specify either a solid or a gradient color for the background of your snap.
From now on it's also possible to specify an image 🥳
You can choose from a variety of background images we prepared for you in our library, or upload a custom image.
We've introduced some Presets to easily change the size of your snap to the desired format of well-known social media platforms. We also added three presets for creating Slides in your presentation.
When you choose a preset, the background will enable to keep the aspect ratio, so you can resize it and still keep the desired format. You can toggle off the aspect ratio flag at any time.
Additionally we refactored our previous "Spotlight element" logic to a simpler option called Background Auto Size.
Learn more about it in our Documentation.
It's time for another update for our rich-text editor! 🥳
We've added a new inline toolbar that that appears when you’re editing text. It allows you to quickly format your text alignment, font size, font family, line height, letter spacing and text color.
New! You can now also add bullet and numbered list items. This is a must have for presentations- our brand new feature which is currently in Closed Beta
It's now possible to create Code Explanations with our AI powered solution!
Just right-click on a selected code and let the AI generate an explanation for you. You can then edit the explanation to your liking.
Now you can collaborate with your team members on a shared workspace. Each team member can create and edit snaps and folders.
The admin of the team can invite new members and manage them.
Currently our team plan includes up to 4 members. In the future, we will add the possibilities to add more members as the demand increases.
It's now possible to specify a border for code editor elements. This enables even more styles variations for your code snippets. 😄
You can find the setting in the right toolbar.
We've introduced a new Position Constraint called "Scale." When applied, this constraint allows elements to maintain their size relative to the background, which is particularly useful when placing background images and ensuring they cover the entire canvas.
Learn more about the different Position Constraints on our new docs page.

It's now even easier to create code explanations with snappify!
Just right click on the selected code in a code-editor element and click the "Explain" option. Checkout the docs for more informations.

You're now able to sort Folders and Snaps on the Dashboard by their name, creation date or last modified date.
The tab size (indentation) of the code editor can now be adjusted from 2 to up to 6 spaces.
You’re now able to attach arrows to elements! 🥳
That means you don’t have to reposition an arrow when you move around the element to which it is pointing at. It will automatically adjust its position.
Learn more about it in our new Arrow documentation.

Additionally, we’ve refined the way of adding new arrows or form elements to your snap.
When clicking on the form element button on the top of the editor and choosing the desired element, you can now immediately start drawing on the canvas. This makes it easier to place the element right where you want it.

From now on, you will see all the colors you have used in the current snap at the top of each color picker. This gives you easy access to all relevant colors.
In addition, we have separated the recently used colors from the preset color palette to make both easier accessible. You can also pin the recently used colors to create your own preferred color palette
We’ve introduced some new advanced style properties! 🥳 You’re now able to specify Blur, Grayscale, Sepia and Hue Rotation on every element!
Hint: this is also able on Group elements, so it’s easy to apply those effects on multiple elements at once.
We've improved our image component! Now, you can easily add handpicked dev-icons, emojis, and other icons. Plus, you can easily replace an image while keeping the configured settings on the right toolbar. In the element tree, you'll also see a small preview image for easier orientation.

Today we migrated our Domain from snappify.io to snappify.com 🥳
We’re really proud of this step as it makes our brand more serious.
All possible redirects are in place, so everything should still work as expected. Nevertheless, if you still expect any issues, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
From now on it’s possible to group elements in the tree! 🥳
Grouped elements act like a single element on the canvas. You can move them around and they'll stick together, which can be pretty handy when you want to group several design elements together.
Read more about grouping an other changes regarding the Element Tree on our docs.
Our rich-text element just got even better! Let’s see what has been changed.
Padding: Now it is possible to adjust padding. This plays very nicely if your text element has a background.
Resize: Sometimes you want to resize a text element for your need. We got your back by providing 3 different resize modes 🙌
Vertical alignment: Since the size of the text element can be adjusted freely you can change vertical alignment.
Read more about the Text element on our docs.
Today we released a unified experience for Embedding & Sharing your snaps from a new modal. You're now also able to describe your snap for better SEO.
Hint: Your old snaps are now public by default and accessible by everyone who has the URL. Newly created snaps will be unpublished by default and you have to actively publish them.
Additionally we also unlock this powerful feature for our free plan, so more people can get in touch with it. 🙌
When creating a new snap with snappify, you maybe need different starting points. Like either you want to start with a Blank canvas, or only a code editor.
That’s why we’ve introduced a new Modal for creating snaps, where you can choose the default snap to start with! It also includes a link to our new Template Gallery, if you want to get started with a more sophisticated Templates.
We’d love to hear your feedback about this. Do you maybe have default styles you’d like to be added to this modal or other additions you’d like to see?
Celebrate and spook away all those bugs using our scary new Halloween templates 👻🧛♂️🧟
