What is a flipbook?

A flipbook is an interactive, online publication that simulates the experience of a physical book with realistic page-turning animations. Flipbooks can include interactive elements like embedded videos, clickable links, animations, slideshows - features not supported in a traditional PDF. They are easily shared via direct link and offer real-time statistics, showing how many times they were opened, how long readers viewed them, and how they interacted with the content.

No experience, no coding required

Publuu lets you create interactive documents without any technical skills. Our no-code flip book creator is easy to use, and if you ever need help, our support team is available every day via chat and email.

Clickable hotspots

Hotspots are small animated buttons that you can place on your pages. When a reader clicks one, it can open a photo gallery or video in a small pop-up window, play an audio clip, or take them to an external webpage. This keeps the page clean while giving readers more to discover whenever they want.

Advanced content protection

Choose the security options that work best for you. Protect your flipbook with a password or disable download, printing, and sharing features. You can even use embed protection to make sure it’s only viewable on your website. With these options, you can confidently share your content while keeping it safe and exclusive to your audience.
