The page now comes as a film

Adorely turns a birthday wish into a page: photos hidden behind balloons they pop, a letter that opens, one wall the whole group writes on.

The problem with a page is that it is a link, and links sit unopened in family group chats.

So Premium Plus can now turn a finished page into a film. Not a screen recording. The page's own content, rendered: the name in the template's typeface, the letter writing itself out, the photos, the wishes one by one, with the song already on the page underneath. Vertical, so it plays where it lands.

Tap "Make the film" and an email arrives when it's ready. A page with no uploaded song gets a music box version rather than silence, which turned out to be the common case, not the edge one.

Every film signs off with a small "made with ♥" card, because these get forwarded and that card is the only thing a forwarded copy can say about where it came from.

Happy to answer anything about the render pipeline. It is far more boring than people expect, which was the point.
