Zulip shows previews of attached images and videos, unless previews are
|
|
|
|
[disabled](/help/allow-image-link-previews) in your organization. You
|
|
|
|
can click on a preview to view an image in more detail, or to play a
|
|
|
|
video. Zulip also makes it convenient to browse all images and videos
|
|
|
|
attached to messages in your current view.

## Using the image browser
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the Zulip desktop or web app, you can browse the images in the current view.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you're in a conversation view, the image browser will show all
|
|
|
|
the images from that stream. If you do a [search](/help/search-for-messages),
|
|
|
|
the image browser will show all images in messages that matched that search.
