A new app has his number 1 in the Apple App Store, and it allows you to record video in landscape (for YouTube) and portrait (for Instagram/TikTok) at the same time - it's called DualShot Recorder.
Also, the Head of Instagram announced the ability to schedule Trial Reels, plus have affiliate links to sell products from Reels to earn a commission. The YouTube team has improved the Creator Media Kit, and integrated Nano Banana into the YT Create app.
After all that, I get into Wednesday Waffle.
