The Best Feeling
Isn't that the best feeling 😅
What happens if your scheduled post doesn't publish?! Well if you used a publishing software it's likely you can just reschedule it - on Insta native scheduling, sometimes unpublished scheduled posts get lost forever. Yikes. Which is why keeping a copy of your post via a draft, a screen recording, or editing in another app can be beneficial so your content isn't lost forever 💖

Instagram Reels Update
📢 Instagram's New Reels Update!
Big news - Instagram's making Reels have introduced a "Following" feed in the Reels tab. Now you can choose to see Reels ONLY from the accounts you follow 📺✨Unlike before, where you'd get a mix of followed accounts and recommendations, this update lets you focus on the latest videos from your chosen peeps.
But here's the thing: Instagram users typically follow a diverse range of accounts, right? So, while this feature's neat, it might not be your main go-to for entertainment 🤔 And it begs the question will new accounts struggle to gain a following without a mixed reels tab?
Anyway, it's nice to have the option!
To switch to your Reels "Following" feed, just tap "Reels" in the upper left corner, then select "Following" from the dropdown menu. To go back to the regular Reels feed, hit the back arrow at the top left ✅
What do you think - will you be using this new Reels feature?

How to check scam messages
This week we have been soothing our clients' peace of mind by debunking scam emails/DMs scaring users into thinking your Meta account will be suspended or deleted unless you click a very convincing link and log in to 'Facebook' on a very convincing fake page! 😱 There has been a big spike in scam emails and DMs from Meta so here is how you can check to ensure your notification is genuine :
✅ Check the Sender's Email Address or Username
Scammers often create fake email addresses or usernames that appear similar to the real ones. Always carefully inspect the sender's email address or username. Legitimate messages from Meta will come from official domain names like "@meta.com", "@instagram.com" or "@facebook.com." For the full list of official email addresses and Meta affiliates visit the Meta FAQ page.
✅ Hover Over Links
If the message contains links, don't click on them right away. Instead, hover your mouse pointer over the link to see the actual web address it's pointing to. Ensure that the link matches the official domain of Meta/Facebook/Instagram. Be cautious of shortened URLs or links that lead to suspicious websites.
✅ Don't Share Personal Information
Legitimate messages from Meta will never ask for sensitive information like passwords or credit card details. If the message requests such information, it's likely a scam.
✅ Avoid Clicking on Suspicious Attachments
Be cautious when opening attachments, especially if the message is unexpected or seems too good to be true. Scammers often use malicious attachments to infect devices with malware. If you're unsure, reach out to Meta through official channels to verify the legitimacy of the attachment.
✅ Verify Through Official Channels
If you receive a message that you're unsure about, don't hesitate to verify its authenticity through official channels. Visit the official Meta website or app and reach out to their customer support to inquire about the message you received.
Scammers can be very convin

LinkedIn has introduced a new AI-powered feature that aims to assist you in crafting impactful posts. While the use of AI in content creation is becoming more prevalent, there are concerns about its implications.
In an early iteration, LinkedIn's AI update assistant would prompt you to share your ideas, offering suggestions for a first draft of a post. Now, this feature has been officially launched, allowing some users to access the AI post generation tool within the app.
According to Keren Baruch, LinkedIn's Director of Product, this tool is designed to help you go from a great idea to a fully developed post more efficiently. You start by outlining your own thoughts (at least 30 words), and then leverage generative AI to create a first draft. From there, you can review, edit, and make the post your own before sharing it with your professional network.
However, concerns arise regarding the potential misuse of this feature. There is a risk that it could enable people to misrepresent themselves and their knowledge, ultimately leading to misleading connections, disastrous interviews, and even poor hiring decisions!
While the intention behind this feature is to streamline the process of articulating thoughts, it's crucial to use it responsibly and ensure that your posts reflect your genuine expertise and perspective - your professional reputation is built on credibility and genuine insights from YOU! 💼✨

🚨 TikTok Update Alert! 🚨
TikTok is retiring its 'TikTok Now' feature, the BeReal copycat functionality that was introduced last year. While it's uncertain if the separate app will be shut down, the in-app option will soon be discontinued. However, users will still be able to access their previously posted TikTok Now content within the app.
This change reflects a shift away from the BeReal trend on social media, as the platform focuses on expanding its functionality. For most TikTok users, this retirement won't have a significant impact as TikTok Now wasn't widely used. But for those who engaged with the separate app, it may result in a change in community and connection.
Stay tuned for more updates as we learn more about TikTok updates!
