Purpose: Utilize the FanX platform's Video Card to add videos from your YouTube account directly into the app, or feature your videos from other video sources in the video card.
Overview
The FanX platform has now made digital video content more accessible! You are now able to add a "Video" card to the homescreen of your FanX app, where you can house videos in one convenient playlist!
Add YouTube videos that will play natively in the app, or link out to external video players. The Video Card gives you an option to bring your digital video content into your FanX app!
