# Capturing Snaps & GIFs of Your SwiftXR Models
Creating snaps and GIFs of your 3D Model on SwiftXR is one of the simple ways to capture various angles of your product, to showcase key features and boost engagement.
With high quality snaps and GIFs, you can show rotations of products,and capture before/after views. Here’s a simple guide to get you started and done in minutes.
### How to Capture Snaps and GIFs on SwiftXR
#### 1. Upload your 3D Image
Start by uploading your 3D image into the SwiftXR editor, and ensure it is fully loaded with no missing textures, well positioned with enough lightning that showcases key product features.
You can quickly preview the image on both desktop and mobile view to avoid any awkward crop or final result.
#### 2. Turn off Auto rotation for a specific angle
To make it easy when taking snaps, go to Properties > General, and turn off "Enable Auto rotation” to get the specific angle of the image you want snaps of.
Now, click the drop down arrow beside the “Publish” button and you will see the “Snap” option.
#### 3. Click the snap button and choose an option to create your snap
Next, click the snap button and choose between creating an image or a GIF.
You also have the option to preview the image before publishing to give you a clear picture of what your final product would look like and the angle it would showcase, in the case of a snap.
#### 4. Generate the snap
If satisfied with the preview, you can go ahead to generate the snap to get it downloaded on your device as a png.
