# Upload media from your phone to Descript

> Scan a QR code to move photos and videos from your phone into a project.

Upload files from your phone directly into a Descript project — no cables, syncing, or third-party apps required. Supports files up to 250 MB.

<Note>
  **Feature in Labs**

  Upload from mobile is a Labs feature. To enable it, go to **Account Settings > General** and toggle on **Enable mobile uploads**. [Learn more about Labs features](/account-and-app-settings/labs).
</Note>

## Upload media from your phone

1. On your computer, open a Descript project or [create a new one](/getting-started/create-a-new-project).
2. Select the **Project** panel in the right-hand sidebar
3. In the **Files** section, select the **+** button, then click **Upload from Mobile** from the dropdown menu.
4. Scan the QR code with your phone’s camera. You’ll be taken to **web.descript.com** in your mobile browser.
5. If you’re not already signed in, log into your Descript account.
6. Once signed in, you’ll land on the project screen. Select a file to upload.
7. Tap **Upload**, then choose your file(s).
8. The files will upload directly into your project’s **Files** panel.

<Note>
  **Video colors look washed out or overly vivid after upload?**

  This can happen with HDR footage, especially videos recorded on iPhone or other cameras that use HDR by default. Learn how to [fix color problems when importing HDR videos into Descript](/add-and-manage-media/ts-hdr).
</Note>

## What next?

Uploaded files appear in your project’s **Files** section. From there, you can use them like any other file:

* **Need to edit by text?** [Add the file to the script and transcribe it](/getting-started/add-a-file-to-the-script).
* **Using it as b-roll or background audio?** Add it to the scene editor as a layer. [Learn more about working with layers](/visuals/working-with-layers-and-clips-overview).

## Limitations

* Upload from mobile is upload-only — editing on mobile or tablets isn’t supported.
* Uploads are limited to 250 MB per file.
* For best results, use a supported desktop device. See [Descript's system requirements](/getting-started/descript-system-requirements).
