Adding your own photos
There a couple of different ways to add your own photos to Momentum, you can drag and drop the image files right onto your dashboard, or click the + Add Photo button in the Photos section of the Settings ⚙️.
Adding photos with the Drag & Drop method
To use the drag and drop method, simply click, drag, and drop the image file(s) directly onto an open Momentum tab.
Adding photos within the Photo settings
If you're having any problems adding photos with the drag and drop method, you can also visit the Photos section of the Settings ⚙️and click the + Add Photo button.
- Click the ⚙️icon at the bottom left corner of your dashboard.
- Click Photos on the left of side of the settings menu.
- Click the + Add Photo button. This will display your computer’s file explorer.
- Find and then click the photo(s) you want to add, and then click the Open button in your file explorer. The photo(s) you've selected will start uploading to the My Photos section.
- Once the photo thumbnails appear in full color in the My Photos section, they've been added! Click on any of your photos to set them as your active background.
Pro Tip: To select multiple photos at a time, hold down the command key on Mac, or ctrl key on PC, and then click on each photo that you want to add.
