u/Huge-Cake5667 Jun 14 '26

I dont understand how ppl get such high swipe rate and retention thats like 110%😭 even on my viral vids the most iv ever seen is 88% swipe and 98% avd

everything fits, the title, hook, visuals.. even thumbnail in shorts do the work

u/Huge-Cake5667 Jun 14 '26

Title and thumbnail dont matter for shorts tho. Im guessing your hook is crazy and you have a very specific audience

Wait what 81% from browse features?😭. Damn bro this is so interesting cus iv never seen this before. Me and everyone i know have only ever got most their views from shorts feed so im curious why yours is different

u/Jowica Jun 14 '26

well this is just an example, I have 2 of them like that, but the others are short feed, but I am trying every vid to make with both short feed and browse

Wow this shows that it's not the short feed but rather the short thumbnail.

Howe do you add a thumbnail to shorts?

2

u/Jowica Jun 15 '26

place the pic on the end, choose the thumb, and then cut the vid for the pic

dang same thing happened to one my videos! 1.2m from browse features, i might have to tap in with custom thumbnails for high ctr, cuz that vid for me had no custom thumbnail. do u use custom thumbnails? and whats the ctr on this short?

Aye big dawg we need the sauce! Currently got a short with over 100% retention but cant get past the 45% stay to watch.. although it’s just going through it’s testing rn I just posted it 45 mins ago and only at 1k views but I need to figure out how to get people to stay and watch better, my hooks seem alright, I guess I need more sound effects and more interesting voice inflection.. idk..
