Keep going, the finish line is closer than you think. April cohort, drop your best advice for them below👇

What tripods have people found helpful with their setup? Noticing mine is filming slightly tilted and also falling over. Is it better to shoot horizontal or vertically? Horizontal covers the entire court but vertical translates better to iPhone reels video format

Hey April Challengers! We have one suggestion to make your experience even better — start posting as Reels instead of Stories. We’re not changing your rules, just encouraging it because Reels stick around. That means in a few weeks you’ll actually be able to scroll back and see how much you’ve improved. And don’t worry — you can hide it from your grid if you don’t want it on your profile. That’s an easy solve! Want to see what great content looks like?

The community would love to learn from you!
