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.
