### What are some real examples of interactive videos?
Interactive videos change the way we watch by turning passive viewing into an engaging experience, enabling viewers to take part in the content. Popular examples are branching narratives, where your choices influence the outcome. Other applications include shoppable videos that let you click on items for instant purchase, quizzes and polls integrated into educational or training videos to assess understanding, and 360-degree videos that allow you to navigate a virtual space by moving your perspective. These interactive features boost engagement and can result in tailored content journeys.
### How can I create interactive videos?
Creating an interactive video starts with planning non-linear paths and interaction points, like where a viewer can make a choice or respond to a question, then uploading your video to a platform like Vimeo. Using the editor, you can add clickable buttons, hotspots, quizzes, polls, or branching logic to guide viewers. Finally, test and publish the video to access detailed engagement analytics.

No, Vimeo's interactive video editor is designed to be user-friendly and intuitive. It doesn't require coding knowledge or professional video knowledge.
