Someone sent you a review file
A ReviewDeck file carries the video, images or audio you've been asked to look at, plus everything needed to leave frame-accurate notes and send them back. Here's how to open it.
Got a .rdeck file?Easiest
- Save the file to your device.
- Open portal.reviewdeck.app on any device, phone or computer.
- Drop the file on the page, or choose it with the button.
You can play the media, click to leave notes on the exact frame, draw on the picture, and send everything back when you're done. Nothing installs.
Open the review portalYour file never leaves your device. The portal is blocked from all network access after it loads. Check your browser's network tab to see for yourself.
Prefer a desktop app?
The free ReviewDeck app opens the same file with the full toolset, and if you review regularly it keeps everything organised in one place.
Got a web-page review instead? (.html or .zip)
- Download it and open it on a computer in Chrome, Edge or Firefox. Phones aren't supported for this format.
- If it came through email or a cloud drive, download it first and open the saved file, not the preview pane.
- If it's a .zip, unzip it, then open the file marked OPEN ME.
Asked for a password?
The sender protected the file. They'll have sent the password separately (a message, a call). It can't be recovered by anyone (including us), so if it's lost, ask the sender to re-send.
Sending your notes back is the whole point
Your notes live only on your device until you return them. Nothing syncs, nothing uploads: if the file doesn't go back, the feedback never arrives.
When you're finished, click Send feedback (in the app: Return feedback) and send the saved file back on the same channel the review arrived on. That file carries everything, including anything you drew.
