Slideshow Mode

FlipLink Features

Automatic page progression that plays through a flipbook at timed intervals without interaction.

Definition

Slideshow mode is an automatic page progression feature that advances through a flipbook at timed intervals without requiring any reader interaction. Similar to a presentation on auto-play, it turns pages at a set pace, creating a passive viewing experience. Readers can pause or resume the slideshow at any time or manually navigate to specific pages.

Why It Matters

Slideshow mode transforms flipbooks into hands-free displays, making them ideal for kiosks, trade show screens, lobby displays, and digital signage. It also suits contexts where the reader cannot easily interact, such as presentations projected onto a large screen. Without auto-play, these use cases would require someone to manually advance pages.

How It Works in FlipLink

FlipLink offers a built-in [slideshow and auto-flip feature](/features/slideshow-auto-flip) that you can enable on any flipbook. You set the interval between page turns, and the flipbook plays through automatically with the same 3D page-flip animation used in manual browsing. The slideshow loops back to the beginning when it reaches the last page, creating a continuous display. Readers can pause auto-flip at any time and resume manual navigation. You can also combine slideshow mode with background music for a fully immersive, hands-free experience.

Example

A car dealership places a tablet in the showroom displaying a flipbook of their latest models. With slideshow mode set to advance every 8 seconds and background music enabled, customers browse the catalog passively while waiting, seeing every vehicle without touching the screen.
