# View images and videos
2019-03-07 20:06:47 +01:00
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.

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.
