video guides

Recorded how-to lessons

Video guides are instructional videos that walk viewers through a process or explain how to use something.

The term emphasizes the guiding function—showing steps, demonstrating techniques, or navigating complex tasks: I watched a few video guides before assembling the furniture.

Common for software tutorials, game walkthroughs, and DIY projects.
