Narration: So, was scrolling through Twitter an average day on the web. Saw an animated gif quote customised for a company. Then thought, well that's cool. Searched for something simple that would allow me to animate text quickly specifically for social media. Found LICEcap didn't sound evenly remotely pretty :P Have Arrelium, Screenflow, Quicktime, etc... not exactly the time hack we're all looking for. Then I came across Ripl which stated it creates custom animated posts for social media. Yup, that looks like the App I need. Searched YouTube because well, why not... Found a video, thought yea that looks pretty enough. Downloaded it. WINNER :) Posted a quick animated quote on Instagram. Less than a minute to make (literally) A few people liked it, then Ripl sent me a notification saying. Hey your recent post just got some engagement. Well, dagnabit I know, since IG notifications are on. But still that's pretty cool, right? Pros + - Can connect Facebook Pages (multiple) - Can connect Twitter Accounts (multiple) - Can connect IG account (cannot automatically post for you :O but does open IG save text to paste) - Can schedule - Quick analytics (tells you about post engagements in app) - Easy to Use - Can change font, background, add music - Can add both text and images into animation - Option to add logo or hide with pro - Pretty substantial library with pro - Free pro trial - it works Cons - - Monthly subscription (although if they continue to add more options (layouts, animation, music, etc.) overtime I would say that's a fair price for something that really cuts down on production time :) - Literally just started using it so I'll update this if I notice anything con-ish

I've received so many compliments on some of the promos I've created with ripl. I was extremely impressed from day 1.

Pros:

Even non tech individuals with no budget can create beautiful memorable ads that Will catch the attention of their target market easily

Cons:

Can't really think of any. I'll let you know after I've had a chance to try out pro.
