  • Triller is Challenging TikTok to be King of the Social Video Hill

    Reviewed by Jimbo

    Sharing important moments and events via social media is not only fun but more and more it’s necessary. For many it’s the only way to stay connected with family and friends.

    For some, it’s the only way to build your brand and social following. Of course there are well-established platforms that are now at the top of the heap, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok.

    But the ground may be shifting and we may be witnessing a changing of the guard. There is an upstart app breathing down TikTok’s neck and could very well fly right by.

    Triller is an innovative new iPhone social video platform app that gives users a whole new way to quickly create slick looking videos and music videos.

    Developed by Triller, LLC, the app features an incredibly easy way to create awesome videos, and a cool new way to share important moments with friends, family, and the world.

    Concept and Functionality:

    In the world of social media, few are leaders, most are followers. Let’s face it, if the celebs you follow are not on a sharing platform you probably won’t be there either. On the other hand, if those who you crave to know everything about are posting on it, you’ll soon be there too.

    In the case of Triller, they have a huge head start with achieving escape velocity because of the notable names who make use of their app. It remains to be seen if they stay with it, but for now, at least, you can track the goings-on of Chance the Rapper, Justin Bieber, Rae Sremmurd, Rita Ora, Kevin Hart, TikTok stars Josh Richards, Noah Beck, and many more.

    Add to that the privacy concerns about using TikTok and we may very well be witnessing a perfect storm of factors that will combine to get this puppy into orbit. BTW, you may ask, “aren’t they all the same?”. Well, no. Triller tells you right up front that they collect usage info and you can modify that in Settings.

    Features:

    Triller iPhone App

    As far as usability goes, we love how easy to navigate, and put really cool videos together, especially for first time users. Setting up the app is a breeze.

    We’re also quite impressed that you don’t have to even register to begin enjoying content. Of course, as you’d expect, you do have to register using Apple, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, your phone number or an email address to see your friend’s videos. We love the flexibility here!

    If you prefer music videos, just tap the music symbol and you’ll see lots to choose from.

    You can also quickly see what’s hot by checking out the “Leaderboard”, “Active” or any trending hashtags such as “#BLM”.

    Getting your creative projects out there is as easy as hitting the “plus” sign to begin your own social videos or music videos.

    Triller comes with plenty of awesome features to make your videos even more awesome. It will do a lot for you and, as you might expect, that can be a double-edged sword.

    Putting together a video that your friends will enjoy is about as easy as it can be but with all that power comes a restriction on your ability to control every aspect of it.

    For example, it’s super simple to add music via Apple Music and that’s great, as long as the music you want to add is there. Plus, Triller controls what part of the song is used, you don’t have the ability to fine tune the segment you want.

    Value:

    Triller is available to download from the App Store for free and is designed for iPhone.

    Overall, Triller is a fantastic social video network that offers incredibly easy ways to create and share videos and music videos with friends, family, and more.

    Triller requires iOS 11.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

  • Calendar.AI is a Must-Have Productivity App for iPhone

    Reviewed by Sarah Hanlon

    As a result of recent events with the pandemic, chances are you’re either working from home completely, part-time, or interacting with others who have to work remotely.

    Not only does this pose challenges as far as setting up a home office, but it can be tricky to keep track of everyone when being together in an office is no longer a viable option for your team.

    Calendar.AI is an extremely feature-rich and easy-to-use calendar and appointment scheduling app for iPhone and iPad.

    By integrating multiple calendars into one and providing key info about meeting attendees, it makes prepping for meetings, keeping track of events and coordinating with disparate co-workers and team members a breeze.

    Developed by Sync.ME LTD, this is definitely something you should try if calendars and appointments are an important part of your professional life.

    Concept and Functionality 5/5

    On the surface, Calendar.AI looks pretty similar to many other calendar apps that are available. You can clearly see days of the week, as well as navigate between months.

    Naturally this is very important for a free calendar app because the last thing you want to have to do is spend time trying to find the right day to set your appointment.

    One of the cool things you can do with Calendar.AI is give events and meetings specific tags so you can easily keep them organized. Once integrated into your company, you can even view valuable insights on employees and the companies you’re meeting with, helping you to stay informed. 

    Calendar.AI even allows you to integrate with various meeting platforms such as Microsoft Teams, Skype, Zoom, and Google Meet. Considering the new reality we’re adapting to as far as more people working remotely, this is an invaluable addition to the app and makes it a very powerful professional tool.

    Features 5/5

    Calendar.AI iPhone App

    Almost every email client features some sort of integrated calendar, which means if you have multiple email accounts, then chances are you have multiple calendars. Calendar.AI offers the ability to combine as many calendar accounts as you need into one single calendar so you can keep track of everything in one place.

    Beyond just telling you what’s coming up, Calendar.AI provides you with a complete overview of who you are meeting with including their employment background (did you work at the same company a few years ago?), social postings (do you share a passion?) , and photos.

    Plus, for those times when you do have to actually meet someone in person, the weather forecast in also provided.

    Another feature that sets Calendar.AI apart from other calendar apps is the option to organize meetings. You can set up a personalized schedule to show others the hours and days that you’re available, and you can share this using a link that’s generated within the app.

    Value 5/5

    Calendar.AI is available to download from the App Store for free, but there are options to upgrade depending on the size of your company.

    From what I could tell, the only limits between the free version and subscription plans are the number of insights you can access for employees and companies. If you choose to upgrade, the plans are Premium for $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year and Pro for $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year.

    Overall, Calendar.AI is a powerful business productivity tool that goes well beyond traditional calendar apps to give you the insights you need to be as productive as possible.

    I highly recommend trying it if you’re working remotely and you need a new way to handle meetings and events.

    Calendar.AI requires iOS 12.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
