FlowVella

FlowVella is interactive multimedia presentation software for presentations, digital signage, and iPad kiosks. A Flow can combine text, images, video, links, galleries, audio, and PDFs, with navigation between screens or other Flows for non-linear presentations. Published Flows receive a unique URL and can be shared publicly, privately, or embedded on a website. The service is available on iOS, macOS, and the web, with desktop and mobile apps. Mac, iPad, and iPhone apps can create or present downloaded content offline; the web version cannot. Analytics can show who viewed a presentation, which pages they saw, and how long they spent on them. Slack can deliver tracking alerts and support embedding Flows in messages. PRO includes iPad Kiosk Mode with PIN locking and a timer reset for public settings. The free plan allows four public presentations with up to 10 screens each and excludes Premium and PRO features. Premium costs $10 a month, while PRO costs $20 a month. FlowVella does not currently support Android and gives no availability timeline.

FlowVella supports multimedia and non-linear presentations, with offline presentation available in its Mac and iOS apps. Its free tier has a small public-presentation allowance, and Android users cannot use the service on that platform.

It suits people creating multimedia presentations, digital signage, or iPad kiosk content. Premium is described for individual use, while PRO is aimed at sales and marketing professionals and Enterprise at larger companies and teams.

FlowVella is multimedia presentation software for creating interactive decks, digital signage and iPad kiosks. It suits presenters who need linked, media-rich experiences and can work within Apple’s ecosystem. Its offline Mac and iOS apps are a strength, but the free tier is tightly capped and Android is unsupported.

Overview

Rather than limiting a presentation to a linear run of slides, FlowVella lets authors link screens to one another or to other Flows. That opens up useful paths for kiosks, product showcases and presentations where viewers should choose what to explore next. A Flow can combine text, images, video, links, galleries, audio and PDFs, so it can serve as a compact multimedia destination rather than a sequence of static slides.

Published Flows get a unique URL and can be shared publicly, privately or embedded on a website. Privacy choices include link-restricted and password-protected sharing, along with private and PRO group settings. Analytics can show who viewed a presentation, which pages they saw and how long they spent on them; Slack can deliver tracking alerts and embed Flows in messages. FlowVella also says its web and API connections use SSL and stored passwords are encrypted.

Key features

Non-linear navigation is the product’s clearest distinction. It is valuable when an audience needs to browse by interest or when a public-facing display should offer several routes through the material. For a conventional presentation that simply advances from one slide to the next, those linking tools may matter less.

The Mac, iPad and iPhone apps can create or present downloaded content offline, a practical advantage for presenting where connectivity is unreliable. The web version cannot work offline, so browser-only users should plan around an internet connection. PRO adds iPad Kiosk Mode, including PIN locking and a timer reset for public settings. That makes the paid tier a better fit for unattended displays than the free or Premium plans.

FlowVella offers a template library and presentation design tools, but it does not support real-time collaboration. Teams that need to work together live on the same presentation should look elsewhere.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and allows four public presentations, with up to 10 screens or slides each. Free accounts cannot use Premium or PRO features, so the cap is best for trying the format or publishing a small set of short, public Flows—not for private or feature-rich work.

Premium costs $10 a month, billed monthly, and allows uploads up to 500 MB. It is positioned for individual and personal use. PRO costs $20 a month, billed monthly, and adds Kiosk Mode, team creation and management, private team presentation sharing, presentation view alerts and priority support. Sales and marketing professionals who need those controls and alerts have the clearest reason to pay for PRO.

Teacher costs $10 a month billed monthly or $100/year, with the same features as PRO and a 50% teacher discount. Enterprise has custom pricing and includes custom branding, a branded web player and apps, a custom domain and a dedicated account manager for larger companies and teams. Paid plans are priced per user, and the service does not offer real-time collaboration.

Platforms

FlowVella is available on iOS, macOS and the web. Its iPad and iPhone apps are useful for presenting downloaded content offline, while the Mac app supports offline creation or presentation too. Android is not supported, with no timeline for availability; that rules it out for Android-dependent presenters and audiences.

Who it's for

FlowVella is a good fit for individual presenters, sales and marketing teams, teachers, and organizations building interactive kiosk experiences—provided their users can access it on a supported platform. Its mix of media, screen-to-screen links and sharing options suits content that benefits from exploration. It is a weaker choice for Android-first teams, browser-only offline use, or groups that require live collaboration.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Links between screens and Flows support audience-led navigation, useful for interactive presentations and kiosks.
• Pro: Mac, iPad and iPhone apps can work with downloaded content offline.
• Pro: View analytics, privacy controls and PRO alerts offer options for tracking and controlling shared presentations.
• Con: The free allowance stops at four public presentations and 10 screens per presentation, with no Premium or PRO features.
• Con: There is no Android support and no real-time collaboration, limiting platform reach and team workflows.
• Con: Offline use is unavailable in the web version, so browser users need connectivity.

Verdict

Choose FlowVella if you want to build multimedia presentations that let viewers navigate their own way, especially for iPad kiosks or offline use in Apple apps. Its combination of flexible sharing, analytics and kiosk controls is compelling for those use cases. Look elsewhere if you need Android support, live collaboration, or a generous free allowance.
