Get ready to take your mobile app interactions to a whole new level with Insight Reels! These activities offer a full-screen experience filled with exciting and fun components that captivate and entertain your users.

Moderators have the option to create a video and share it with the members of your mobile-enabled community. This video is intended to elicit reactions from the community members.

There are two ways to produce and design the video. The first option is to handle the entire process in-house, meaning that the moderators themselves will create and design the video. The second option is to use existing text-to-video production sites that utilize AI avatars, such as Elai.io and HeyGen. These sites provide a platform where moderators can input text, which is then transformed into a video featuring AI avatars.

Activity Interface Overview

Here's a closer look at what Insight Reels brings to the table:

• Insight Reels are triggered by a specific algorithm during the activity creation process. This ensures that the activities are precisely what you want them to be.
• Insight Reels are exclusively designed for mobile apps. They're tailored to provide an optimal experience on mobile devices, making them a perfect fit for your on-the-go audience.
• Easily upload your media content, enhancing user engagement and interaction.

Insight Reels are packed with components that make user interactions a breeze:

Upon launching an Insight Reel, the app loads and automatically plays the Moderator Video. The Video Reply View showcases thumbnails for easy selection. Tapping a thumbnail triggers a vertically paging list of Video Replies, which also autoplay upon appearance.

The member's Video Reply interface mimics the Moderator Video, with a few distinctions:

• The Video Reply Button is hidden.
• "Replying to @(moderator username)" is added above the Activity Title Label.
• When multiple Video Replies exist, a Swipe Up Indicator appears at the bottom of the screen.

Create Insight Reels in Fuel Cycle

1. Create a new activity with the differences described below. 
2. On the Activity Details tab, Do not enable the "Private Responses" setting. This feature is not yet supported for Insight Reels.
3. In the Select Platforms section, check the Mobile Apps platform option. This tells Fuel Cycle to present the activity only on mobile devices and to parse the activity in Insight Reels mode.
4. On the Landing Page tab, add the following Blocks (order not important):
   • File Block (required)—Record and upload portrait videos; 9x16 aspect ratio as that has a preferred rendering that takes up the entire screen.
   • Text Block (optional)—If you wish to add a description, include this (no text formatting is needed because this mimics a social media posting). If there is no text block, the mobile app looks for a caption in the file block video.
