Flipgrid provides a fun, easy way to submit videos. Flipgrid also supports the ability for learners to import their own videos as well. 

Use your phone's native camera, edit videos with iMovie, or try AppSmashing with apps like Chatterpix, Screencastify, or Adobe Spark and upload them to your Flipgrid videos!
