Hello, everyone, and welcome to this Moodle Academy webinar. Make the most of the Moodle mobile app. I'm Mary Kuch, education manager here at Moodle HQ, and I'm going to be monitoring the chat and relaying any questions to Juan Lever, our head of mobile solutions at Moodle HQ. It's quite a short presentation, so there will be plenty of time for questions at the end, and I'm now going to pass over to Juan to start the presentation. Over to you, Juan. All right, so today, well, Mary already introduced me, but I think that a lot of people in the chat already know me because I've been checking all the different participants' names, and I think that there are a lot of people from the community in these webinars today, so, yeah, I'm very glad to see you around. So, yeah, so today I'm going to basically summarize in five main sections or tips a few things that you can do to improve the user's overall experience with the mobile application. So first, in the first section, I'm going to talk about how you can reduce the onboarding friction, and you might be wondering what's onboarding friction. So when I say onboarding friction, I mean that for sometimes, for users, it is very difficult to just reach your Moodle site using the mobile application, and the simple reason for that is that there is a main barrier that is the site URL or the site address that nowadays most of the people are used to use apps, specific apps for specific purposes. So opening a browser, typing a URL is something that is not very common. So we try to improve this aspect in the mobile app to just make this journey easier for the final users of the mobile application. So the second thing is that you should try to make your users feel like at home, feel comfortable when they are using the mobile application that they feel that they're using your tool for your system, for your institution. The third one is to simplify the user interface. When you're using a mobile device or when you're using a mobile application, you don't expect to see so many options. You just to be focused on the tasks that you want to do, that is accessing a course, reading materials, doing a quiz, taking a survey, so doing very specific tasks in a very driven way so you are not lost in the way. This is also related to the fourth point that is make your courses mobile friendly, that of course we can have a very simple interface in the mobile app with a few options to just go to the course, to my notifications, or my messages. But the most important aspect is that your courses has to be designed in a way that are mobile friendly. When I say mobile friendly, I mean that they look okay in a small device. They look okay in a device that the user is just holding while he's in the living room coach, or when he's traveling in the commuting or whatever. And finally, the fifth point is about supporting your students and teachers so they can help if they are lost in this journey of using the mobile application. Okay, so I will start with the very first one. And as Maes said, we will have time for questions at the end of the meeting. Before starting with the first point, I will guess to clarify that some of the features that they're going to talk about are only available if you have a pro premium plan for the mobile application. You know that the Moodle mobile application is free. Students don't have to pay for anything. But there are things that cost money to Moodle, like the hosting of the push notification system. So your users can receive push notifications. And this is why we designed the Pro and Premium Plan. And the Pro and Premium Plan also comes with certain exclusive features, like QR code logging or tools to design or to apply your custom branding into the mobile app as well. One thing to consider is that the Premium Plan is totally free if you are hosted by a Moodle certified partner or if you are hosted in Moodle Cloud. So now let's go with the first point that is reducing the onboarding friction. I already explained this before, but in the mobile app, the first thing that you see when you open it after installing it is this screen where you are asked to put your side URL. A lot of normal users, they don't know what a site address or a site URL are. So this is why we implemented what we call this feature that is called the site finder, that basically it allows you to publish your site in a listing with your name. So when people type your institution name, organization name, they can easily find you by name. In this example, we are using the All Learn Moodle site. And as you can see, you can even customize the icon of your site, this favorite icon. So you can provide your branding, your logo as part of the site results in the search. So yeah, this is the best way to reduce the onboarding friction because your users, they will just find you by name. As is explained in the slide, this is only available for pro or premium sites. Another feature that could help to reduce this onboarding friction is the QR login. I don't know if you are using WhatsApp web or WhatsApp desktop, but this is very similar in your Moodle user profile. If this feature is activated in your site, you have a section that will help you to display a QR code that you can scan with a mobile application and then it will automatically lock in into your Moodle site. So your users, your students, they won't have to type a site URL. They don't have to put their credential, their username or password. They just need to scan this QR code. So these were the main two things that you can do to reduce this onboarding. So how can you make your users feel at home? Well, we have this branding tool that is also available for premium plans that will help you to very easily customize the look and feel of the mobile application. And this is very important to notice. The mobile application is a different user interface for your Moodle site, but it's not a webpage. It's not going to grab your custom theme from your site, say that you have developed your custom theme or you have configured a lot of stylus CSS in your Boost app or Boost theme. This is not going to work in the mobile app because it's a different tool. It's a different front end build using a different technology. So if you want to provide a seamless experience with a similar branding, that the one that you have in your Moodle site, you can use these two that will allow you to change the colors, the main colors of the mobile application. And it will also allow you to add your custom CSS in case you want to apply further customizations. You can also add custom menu items. You can do this for free. There is a limit of, I think, two or three custom items. So in this example, what I did was to add a new option in the mobile app with the, with a map or access information or the typical where we are information. What I did was just to create a site page in Moodle and then using this setting that are also available in your Moodle site, you can just include this menu item information. It is very similar to the custom menu items feature that is available in the boost theme in Moodle. And it will allow you to add custom pages in your Moodle application as well. You can also customize the streams. You can also do the same that you do for the Moodle LMS that you can change it. If you don't have teachers and you have educators, for example, that's a very good example, you can just rename these in the mobile app as well. It won't automatically retrieve from the site all the changes you did for your custom strings because the mobile app, as I said, is a different system. So you will need to apply the same translations in the mobile app, but these are quite the site forward process. It won't take more than 10 minutes to do that. And as you can see in the screenshot, we are using the edukito. More things that you can do is, and this time, it's about simplifying the user interface because sometimes you don't want to provide the same options that are available in the Moodle site in the mobile application. You might want to keep it very simple. Say that your users are, for example, from primary education, like 10 years, 11 years, and you want to keep it, keep the app very simple so they can focus on just doing the courses and you want to remove everything else. So you can do this just changing some site settings in your Moodle site. You can do this also for free. There is a limit of settings that you can remove in the free plan, but you can just remove, for example, all the blocks. You don't want comments to be displayed in the mobile app. You can remove that. You don't want the users to be able to browse using tags. You can do that. You can disable complete modules. You can disable everything that is in the app. There are a lot of options there. So this will really help you to keep the app very simple because you can remove most of the menu items or options that are displayed among the mobile app. For example, a lot of institutions, they just remove the site home from the app because usually the site home is used to display information about the site or like a presentation with a video or something. Things that doesn't have available in the app that is mostly for students and you want your students to focus on doing the courses in the app. So you can remove it from the app, just changing this Moodle setting. How can you make your courses mobile friendly? I have, there is some documentation that is linked in the Moodle docs wiki that goes very into detail. So I'm going to try to be very quick because this is already documented in the Moodle docs. But for example, the most pieces is avoiding all content formats that are not, well, that doesn't work very well in mobile devices. For example, Scorn. Everybody knows that the Scorn is very old. It was designed in the 2000s. And it doesn't really work very well, especially if you have Scorn packages that were created like 15 years ago. You should be moving away from those type of content and migrating everything to H5P that works really well in mobile devices because they are responsive, because they implement a way to save all the interactions offline. There are a lot of benefits to use H5P. Avoid using PDF files that will open in a different app. And you can use a book model that works very well in the app because, for example, you can use swipe to move between pages. Also, text formatting should be adapted to small screens. You should avoid using a lot of nesting like, you know, section 3, 1, 2, 5, or like all these kinds of contracts. You should try to keep it very simple, very readable in the mobile application. Also, if you need to upload files to the system, don't use .exe or use PDF in that case. Avoid PDF if possible, but if you need to publish documents, don't use original formats because mobile apps, they don't really manage very well these kind of formats for editing. And you have a very good example in the digital literacy course that is available in the demo site that this one, this course was created by Mary as an example of a course, a mobile friendly course. And it's very nice to see. Regarding media, well, the most basic thing that you can do is try to reduce the size of the images that you are using, make them responsive, and also compress the videos. Imagine that you are connected to data, you're using your data plan, and you want to watch a video, it is going to consume a lot of your data. So you should try to avoid that. And for that, you can create like videos in mp4 format, low resolution, that still looks very well. Yeah, for example, you know that the mobile application can work offline, but if you are adding YouTube or Vimeo videos are not going to work offline, of course, because you need an internet connection. Well, as I said, everything is in the link in the presentation. If you go to Google and you search for create mobile friendly courses, mobile model, you will find a document and several presentations I made about these topics. And finally, don't forget that you need to support always your students and teachers. And when I say support is that you need to provide documentation, guidelines, help. And what I did is to put some example of institutions that created help documents. Just take a look and maybe you can do something very simple, like how to log in. And it could be just a very simple page with an screenshot so your users can read the instructions in the computer screen. They can follow them very easily and they can just use the mobile app, avoiding all these kind of problems that we were discussing before, such as the onboarding friction. Yeah, of course, it is very important to train your teachers to provide documentation about how can they make their courses ready for mobile devices. Just simple tools like you can use these tools to make your images smaller in size, but good in resolution. So everything is, as I said, documented in that page is linked in the presentation. And that's all. I think it was just 20 minutes and we have plenty time for questions. Thank you. And keep sharing your screen, Juan, because at the end I'll ask you just to move on and I can talk about academy for a moment, but we do have some questions. So I'm going to read them from the chat. So the first question from David and I realize Noel has answered this, so we have a question and an answer. Is the premium plan still available to nonprofits and NGOs? Noel is saying it is, you can create a free account in the apps portal and contact support to upgrade it. That's correct, yes? Yes, it is. There is a process and there are some rules to be able to apply for this, but yes, it is still available. Okay, Rod is saying he's trying to do some testing using the free plan, but the test user gets a message, site not found on the mobile, it's an Android, even though the created user QR code found the site and the username and password. Any advice appreciated to troubleshoot this problem? Site not found. So I think that sometimes it'll be a misconfiguration thing in the server or a firewall or proxy or that is blocking the access with the mobile application. In that case, the best thing that you can do is you can reach us in the Visa Mulo for mobile forum that we are very active there. And also if you're registering the apps portal, the link to the apps portal is apps.mulo.com. We have a support tab there and you can contact us for support. Of course, we try to provide support for everything, but there are millions of users sometimes that we are very slow. Yeah, okay. David is just making a comment. He says teachers should be warned not to show their QR code to the students. Indeed. Then we have from Kenneth. Kenneth is asking how to show content on the Moodle app dashboard directly and not just as menu items. And I realize Kenneth, I think you tried to upload a file, but I can't see the file in the chat. It's just going round for me. So how to show content on the Moodle app dashboard directly, not just as menu items. For instance, the calendar or some other block, because I only have the menu of coming events or the calendar, which I need to click on in order to see them. Yeah. Well, in the dashboard, while the mobile apps support blocks, so you can add an HTML text blog if you want to put some content there. But for some type of block, like the calendar one, we don't really display the full calendar in the dashboard because it will take all the screen available. In that case, we display a link so the calendar will open in a separate page. This is because to prove the user experience. Because if you imagine that you have a site with five blocks in the dashboard and you try to put all that information in the mobile application, it is not going to look very well. So in general, what we recommend is avoid displaying unnecessary information in the dashboard for users. But if you want to display custom information, you can always use the text HTML blog, put content, and the mobile application is going to display that content. But as I said, for certain blocks like the calendar or the new report block that we are supporting, it is going to open in a separate page. We are not going to display the full calendar. We are going to display a link and the link will open in a separate page in a new page in the app using the full screen so you can see the calendar there. Okay. Thank you. Now DuPont is asking, what about combining Moodle and PWA? I don't know what that is. I'm sorry. So it's just a suggestion. I will try to find the question in the chat. What about buying Moodle and PWA? It's a solution that you could try. Could you advise that if not why? PWA. Okay. Sorry. I wasn't... This is Web App. Thank you, Noel. Progressive Web App. This technology, Progressive Web App, is something that Moodle and LMS will need to support in order to display a mobile-friendly version on the browser. And you know that the Moodle app is huge. It's a 20-year piece of millions of lines of code. And I don't think that there are plans to implement a Progressive Web App approach in the future because it will be like a several years project. I can imagine that. Okay. Thank you. Now, the next one is Rashaq Haas says, we've been using the App at our college, and it is now showing Site Not Found. We are still using Moodle 3.7. Might that be the reason? Site Not Found? Well, as I mentioned before, it has reached us for support. Because sometimes what we've noticed is that lately for security, a lot of institutions are setting up firewalls or tools like CloudFair that by default block the mobile application. Sometimes what is happening is that you are not able to connect using the mobile application because there is something between the internet and your Moodle site that is blocking the request. And in order to check that, we need to take a look to your site, or you can check the Moodle mobile fact FAQ that is available in the Moodle docs, where we have a list of possible things that you should be checking. Thank you. We have two questions about notifications now. James is asking, can you advise about Moodle notifications in the app? And David says, are the default notification settings set to on for mobile, or does a teacher need to teach their students how to do this? Well, you can check that depends on the site configuration. Potentially, you can receive the same notifications in the app that the one that you receive in your email. So it's the same. Moodle generates notifications and the site administrator decides to which devices or systems you can send notifications. And then the student or the user, they can even say, I want to receive these or that or that. I would recommend you to check the Moodle documentation about this topic. There is something that is called the default notification settings, if I remember well. And it will allow you to indicate if you want to force your students to receive certain notifications always. For example, when there is a course completed, you can say this notification has to be sent always and the user is not going to be able to disable it. But for that, you need to, as a state administrator, you need to go to notifications, notification settings, and then you can configure all the type of notifications you want your users to receive and which ones are mandatory or not. Thank you. Kenneth is asking, to make life easier for users, is there any chance of getting notifications with a small orange number on the front of the Moodle app in the iPhone without actually opening the app? I think that's what the question is. I suppose that that's a feature in, I don't use iPhone. I'm not very familiar with notifications there, but I suppose that is a feature of iOS that you can set colors or avatars. But yeah, we have plans to improve the notifications for iOS. We already have plans for that. Because for Android, already, we are able to send the user avatar and to group notifications if you have a premium plan. So yeah, we have plans for that, but not in the short term, but it's something that we are aware that we can improve how our iPhone or iPad users are receiving notifications. Okay. We have a question from Tim, but I believe Noel has said thanks for your help here, Noel. Is the documentation available for customizing the CSS that the app uses? Noel has sent a link there to the Moodledev.io.io We also have from Juan Delio from Argentina. What is your recommendation for custom themes done in the web Moodle site and not working on the app? I mean, CSS customizations could they or could not be applied on the app? Would that be the same? The same code is not going to work because as I mentioned at the beginning of the presentation, there are different technologies. Moodle.io is using Bootstrap and the Moodle app is using a different framework. So we are not really compatible because Bootstrap is designed for web pages and we are using a framework that is for mobile devices. So if you want to customize your experience in the mobile app, you will need to create custom CSS for the mobile app. And I think that Noel already sent a link to how to customize the mobile application as well. Thank you. Now, I don't see any more questions. If you have a final question, please do ask your questions. Otherwise, I'm going to just mention a few things about academy before we end. So I'll just wait a moment to see if anyone has any other questions. And thanks for all of the existing questions, by the way. Okay, we are getting quite a few thank yous, which probably means we are no more questions. So if you could move the slide on, thank you. Well, there is a last question. One final final one. Go on. Is there any support either Bootstrap or font awesome icons in the app? Well, we are upgrading to form awesome six. What I'm not very sure, maybe Noel, that is in the chat, could confirm. If you include font awesome icons using the icons in elements, if they are going to be displayed in the app, that's not, I'm not really sure about that. And regarding Bootstrap, we know that a lot of people, they would like to see, to be able to use Bootstrap as well in the app. So for example, if they create some, I don't know, a tabs view using Bootstrap styles in or a table using Bootstrap styles, they would like to see that working on the mobile application. We're aware of that, but it will be a very difficult project for us, because it will mean translating all the Bootstrap classes to the equivalent in the framework we use. So we are not going to do anything about that until Mural is using the latest version of Bootstrap. I think it's six, maybe. And maybe Mural, MS434, they will upgrade to Bootstrap. And at that moment, we will evaluate which Bootstrap classes, the style or component are we going to support in the mobile app. But we are aware of the situation that a lot of teachers or content creators are using Bootstrap classes to enhance the look and feel of their content. Thank you. Nicolo, is it possible to provide a QR code to allow students to access not the site page, but the faculty page, for example, a page on which all the courses of a faculty are? Yeah, yeah, that will be possible. You can scan that QR code with the mobile app, and if the mobile app detects that it's a link that is not supported by the mobile application, it will ask you to or it will open the browser pointing to that link. But of course, you need to create the QR code using any online tool that will translate as a URL to a QR code. And another question from, oh, no, I think we've had that question. I think we have everything now. Yes. Yeah, and if you have more questions, there is the Mural Formal Mobile Forum at Mural.org. And we tried to be to participate in that forum. So you can open a discussion there as well. And if you come to the next Mural Mood Global that is in September in Barcelona, we will have like an stand where my complete team, because we are mostly based in Barcelona, we will be there and we will be open to just talk to you guys. That's great. And later in the year, Moodle Academy will be writing a course on the topics that are in this particular webinar, making the most of the Moodle Mobile app for your teachers and learners on your site. And on the subject of academy then, if you could move on to the next slide, Juan. As we come to the end of this webinar, I'd just like to remind you how to get involved with Moodle Academy to help us grow it. We're very grateful that you came today. Please suggest topic ideas for webinars in our Get Involved course. Quite a few of the webinars have been based on that. And if you yourself would like to present or you would like to help create courses, Get In Touch would be very pleased to have you. And extremely important and very close to my own heart, we have a special plugin on our site, which is also available on the Plugins databases of open source for everyone, which enables you to translate our courses directly online. And if you speak a language other than English and you'd like to translate any of our courses, please get involved with that by accessing the Translate Moodle Academy course and help us to have more of our courses in languages other than English. So help us spread the word.  We have programs, in fact, for which you can also purchase an optional certificate. And tell everyone about Moodle Academy so we can have more people coming to our next webinars and joining our courses. If any of you are educators or teachers and experienced in Moodle, why not explore the Moodle Educator Certification and become certified in your knowledge of how to teach with Moodle. The one final question, Raquel, it's content translation plugin, I think, in the Plugins database. So thank you very much, everyone. And thank you to Juan for presenting. And so we will end the webinar now.


Cubs versus Pirates, top of the third, two outs. Runner on first, Cubs are up 1-0. Strap in. One of the dumber plays you'll ever see happen on a baseball field. Nice pitch there for strike one. Swinging, strike two. 0-2, fouls it back to stay alive. Now the runner on first takes off for second. They pick him off. No, they don't. He makes it there easily. Little catcher on catcher, crime two out, two strike. Gone. They got him on the pick off. The first baseman kind of fumbles it. No one covers second base. Just sloppy all around. Strap in. Hit to the third baseman. Over to first. Easy peasy third out. All he has to do, oh, Javi's running away from me. I'll just turn around and I'll walk two steps and I'll step on first base because it's the third out and it's a force out and that's all that matters. Instead he gets baited and he chases Javi down the line. Doesn't make any sense. No, I think what Javi Baez is doing is he's trying to stay in a rundown because he believes that if the runner scores before he's tagged, the run will count. But I just did a quick Google search of the rules that say no, the run still wouldn't count because Javi is forced to go to first so he has to get the first before the run to count. So at this point, he could still just tag Javi. He could still just tag Javi Baez. He could just run two more steps and tag him now. He's got him pinned. Javi Baez is nowhere near to go. He throws to the catcher who tries to tag the runner out. He's called safe by both Javi and the yump. The run scores. Now he's got to get the first. Now if the second baseman was standing on first, waiting, and they threw it to first and got him out, then that run still wouldn't count because it's still a force out. But the second baseman, the right fielder, no one on the Pirates knew what was going on. It gets past him. It gets past the guy backing up. Now Javi's going to second base. They're going to throw it over there and he's going to miss it. He's going to go for the tag instead of just catching it and Javi's like, I'm good, right? I'm good? Yeah, you're good. And they're just belly laughing in the dugout.  How did any of that make sense? Rizzo can't control himself. How do you try to even process what just happened and it gets worse because that should have been the last out of the inning. Instead, my dude Hap throws one into center field. That scores Javi Baez. Now he scores after all that. He's just smiling and laughing like, can you believe that? Can you believe they fell for that one? Then the next play goes to the first baseman again, kind of eats him up. I don't know, maybe it would have been a tough play, but still just not a fun, it's his glove, not a fun time to be the first baseman. Finally, they induce the pop fly to left field, get out of the inning.  I'm having such a bad day. I wish I was on a beach somewhere relaxing. And this guy in the stands is like, why don't you just be like me, man? Look at me, getting some sun, drinking some beer, making some faces. So yeah, great fan, bad play. Ian Hap, he's on the Cubs. He was part of this video. He's got a podcast on our network, it's called The Compound. They'll probably be talking about this play and sharing a good laugh. So be on the lookout for that. Subscribe to The Compound. Check out the YouTube channel. Dumb baseball.


They think they sleep and they not sleep just underwear and a shirt baby period Good morning y'all the lighting is not on my side this morning, but hey y'all Welcome back to my channel.

I work from a 6 p.m To 6 a.m. The next day it is currently a 6 52 in the morning right now We were not supposed to clock out until 6 53 so literally like right now, but I be out of there I don't care be ready to go. Oh So I don't care about the little like 10 15 minutes they take off because maybe I don't care So it is 6 53. I am on my way to McDonald's after I work I'm not even gonna lie to y'all It's been very few times that I would actually let me take my badge off because you got where I work it anyways It'd be very well I got world working on me Okay It's very few times that I will actually go home and cook once I get off It's just more convenient for me to literally just Grab food on my way home where I used to stay I always pass McDonald's going home this time. I kind of go like in a different direction and then I Will go back to the house. Anyway, so I'm on my way to McDonald's to get me some breakfast I always use the coupon for McDonald's They always have it's been changing over the years because I used to get a free sausage and biscuit every time I went and now I use a 20% off coupon. So this is the coupon that I use if you can see that And yeah, you get 20% off your whole entire order if you spent over $3 or more it used to be over $2 So that they think they slick and they not slick and the Sun is not doing it for me girl But yeah, they be thinking a slick and baby is not slick Don't put this on because if I don't put this on I am gonna forget this So I'm just gonna let it hang like this and surely it shouldn't show anything I will be wearing a shirt today. That says where I work, but yeah After I get off like I said, I usually always grab food go to McDonald's every once in a while I will get Chick-fil-A, but it's not many times I would do that Besides that This is kind of how my mornings go. I'm about to go home about the takeout prints I also gonna touch on the subject a little bit in this one since I've been getting questions about it in my last few videos About Oreo. No, I do not have him anymore. It's To sum it up Basically, I just couldn't I Couldn't take Him mentally like someone has said he seemed too hyper for me. That's cool I wanted like a more hyper dog in a sense. That wasn't the problem My problem was him not being potty-trained and he was over a year old like I paid for training for him I trained him myself. I took him out every two hours. I even you know did the diapers like I did all that I could physically and mentally do and take So I gave him to Rehomed him though. I'm a girl. She just graduated She just graduated high school and All of that and then her boyfriend actually wanted to get Oreo for her to like surprise her for a high school graduation gift Like it was super cute I feel like I gave him to a really really nice little family and a family with a lot of energy Like I said, she just graduated high school even her getting out the car She was on you know jumpy and stuff like that.   Like what am I doing wrong? So yeah, I just I just had to rehome him So I'm not gonna know the dog until I move into a house or something Yes, I have a coat Zero to non zero Yes, can I just get two sausage and biscuits with a hash brown and a large fan of orange Yes And I also pay what Apple pay now because maybe did y'all see that picture going viral on Facebook when old girl was like Getting my card and like recording it on a phone or recording on her phone and taking a picture and stuff You know, you're only about to do me like that in the McDonald's, okay? So I always use Apple pay anyway because my stuff be in my hospital bag So I don't even like going in the back to get it or whatever, but yeah, that's pretty much the gist of Oreo. So Yeah, that's that for all you wondering I have a lot of y'all that's been demon me and you know asking this stuff on YouTube and everything so yeah That's where he said he's good Like I said, I feel like she's a really really nice girl and like her boyfriend was trying to surprise her and stuff It was gonna be super cute I'm mad that I miss his DM cuz we don't follow each other and he didn't like swipe up on my post So I wasn't able to see Sweet Look at that.

Look at look at guy.  I always take him out first before I Eat just so I like can be done with him and like enjoy my food and stuff And then before I take him out though, I do take my pills so I can go ahead and go to sleep because I Like to be sleep at 8 o'clock on the dot It's 714 the latest I like to lay down is like 18 so I've been needing that pill in my system plus this pill It takes about 30 minutes. So that's why I take it so early the other medication that I was taking like to help me with insomnia What's I think trazadone and like it will make my heart race like it really was like a bad medication for me Like my body did not react well to it. So I stopped taking it but trazadone definitely knocking me to f out in about 10 15 minutes like no life I would be like doing something like my friend He's he had he takes it to he was like he was folding clothes one morning And he fell asleep over clothes and like me I would be trying to like clean or something And I'll just get like real drowsy and I'm like, all right, let me lay down real quick Instantly knocked out.

Um in my wednesday is done Um, I didn't go grocery shopping yesterday But I did give my deal because I need them ice cold when I try these and I hope they are good I don't know which one I want to try first I'm thinking may be great because I really do enjoy grape soda And I feel like you can't really mess up grape soda, you know, as long as you got that grape flavor It's okay. So yeah, I'm going to try one of these tonight. Most likely great. I'm super excited Oh and I'm going to go ahead and take a picture of these Just in case I would want to use these as part of my thumbnail I always got to make sure you take pictures and get your thumbnail picture So I'm going to put my purse in the background again Just like I did when I took my pictures from my nails And then we're going to prop these up And I'm going to take a picture of the Strawberry limit holding it in my hand And I always change my camera from four by three to 16 by nine Because it makes doing thumbnails a heck of a lot easier Take pictures And I kind of do different angles You know Nothing too major Okay, so first thing I like to do is go to my vendor Well, Janae is actually calling me. So Hold on a second I'm going to grab them from the side so I can use the ones that I like just stuck in from overflow So I got 12 bundles and I got two pieces of lace. So one two three four five six seven eight nine 10 11 12 four five six seven eight nine 10 11 12 13 14 two pieces of lace. Okay. Cool I get these together And then I will just Girl can I get myself together? I'm gonna have to redo this for a tiktok, but I'm gonna go ahead and fill out some of them So then on the back of these I have the origin texture and length. So I have two 16 inches So this is obviously We're all vietnamese and then I got wavy and then two 16 inches. So we're going to do 16 And then raw wavy 16 And then I'm just literally going to repeat that for all the other bundles and then we're going to tag them But I got to record a quick little tiktok real quick So I'll probably show y'all some stuff on my phone because I do need to use my camera for the better quality But I did go ahead and move my bundles over here to the brick wall because I mean obviously it just looks better Instead of having it in front of the pink wall because my brand really it ain't no pink besides What is it? Besides my boxes that I had got for my lashes and I mean, this is the only pink I think I want to go ahead and keep these. I do sell lashes too. I haven't added them to the site yet Um, but I'll probably take some pictures of those or try to do that today And add some pictures to the site in front of the brick wall. So yeah Shop some lashes too. And then I also have my lace milk bins These are also for sale if you want a branded lace band I'm probably going to put these on sale by some of this video video drop. So go ahead and shop Um, yeah, so everything I have on here ships out same day or next day as long as this place before 4 p.m. And yeah, I just thinks it look it just looks better Against the brick wall. Hey y'all today is I gotta wash my hair today too. She still looks good. I haven't washed it in a month but whatever um today's thursday july 6th and And somebody is trying to inquire about editing my videos But yeah, it's 258 Hmm, didn't I wake early didn't I wake up early today because me and bae we had started the show called the rookie and literally 10 out of 10 already but We um, we had started it when I was at his house on 4th of july and so now we been watching like one or two episodes Like in our own play like we live 50 minutes away. So we'll like set the time play it's a watch it together He didn't want to watch three episodes last time my baby. It's already 130 and we was only on the second one I'm like, I'm tired and I know him he falls asleep.  So then I had to take my actual sleeping pill and that knocks me out for hours so Yeah, did it get to go To the freaking gym in the morning. I'm still gonna try to go today that I just paid my membership and Yeah, we're gonna try to go but this is a wig that I got from a nurse All right, my battery died on me, but this is a wig that I got from One of the nurses I worked with up there at my hospital. She was like Can you do my wig for me? Then I'm like, sure. So she's gonna give me $50 to literally just bleach the knots and custom basically just customization, honestly Um, so yeah, it is three o'clock, which I meant to be up by now I'm still waiting on this girl and or her boyfriend to come get this desk that they paid me for like three days ago from facebook marketplace Um, so yeah, she just got a 24 inch um Lace front wig and she wanted to sew on this elastic band So I'm going to go ahead and bleach the knots first and then I'm going to part And then I'm going to put the elastic band on so this shouldn't be too bad to go ahead and just bleach these real quick Because she's dark skin and I'm like baby I'm gonna have to bleach those knots too because I can't customize this wig and have you out here Trying to match this color lace to your skin so I don't know baby So the bleach the knots, um, I usually like to use 40 volume developer, but I only had 20 and 30 So I went ahead and used 30. Um, I didn't put too much because it is just a 13 I think this is a 13 by 4 if I'm not mistaken But it don't take that much and plus all she really wanted was a side part So really all I had to do is just really just bleach the hairline Other knots and then kind of where the part was in but yeah, don't need it to be Too thick either and you don't need to be too liquidy So I'm going to show you exactly how it needs to be just when you raise up the applicator or the spoon or something It does not need to fall off the brush. So yeah, then I went ahead and Sorry I went ahead and spread it all over the lace and I waited for about 30 minutes and since it was about 30 Yeah, you started volume developer. I waited 30 minutes and then rinse that out and it was looking really nice I want to go ahead and highlight the stuff that I completed because I forgot to highlight it and cross it off. So I've already washed the inventory and I recorded it. This was Monday and then I washed clothes that day, but I got to wash again I had cleaned the kitchen, but I'm gonna have to clean that again. I added it at work and I still need to put up wallpaper Um, I did nails. I still got to get some more a little bit of groceries Um, I gotta add I didn't add the vlog because a company had approved the vlog that I've been waiting on for two weeks that I told y'all about I've been promoting but I still got to do that and I still want to record a little bit more content for the hair Basically, I already uploaded a video yesterday I still got to do my hour bible study And I was supposed to work on my ebook today and record voiceovers and record two to four tiktoks So the tiktoks ain't gonna happen since it's already late. Um, I do need to go to the gym though Um, I am going to try to get those voiceovers done because I've been procrastinating that one literally It's like 30 second videos and then work on my ebook I might go ahead and put that for Friday because yeah It's not gonna work out today. I need to wake up really really early and get working on that Update all socials and stuff tomorrow. So yeah, I think we've been doing pretty good. I think I got to do is my bible study Um, figure out which groceries I want to get a little bit because I'm leaving out Monday for Branson and stuff and then Work on my ebook record the voiceovers. Yeah, so I think I'm doing pretty good with crossing out stuff I am trying to get in the habit of making my bed once I Get up. So since I woke up late, we're still gonna make this bed I was thinking about taking off um my box spring To kind of have the bed a little bit lower just to see how it feels because I like tall beds. I don't like low beds Just wanted to say the strawberry limeade tastes just like a cherry limeade So, I mean cherry limeade tastes just like a cherry limeade a little water down But not too bad definitely. I think the limit in this definitely helps it or the cherry I don't know. It tastes really really good. The grape was about six seven out of ten It started off really strong, but it was not it and then the strawberry lemon Definitely not it. I rated it a six out of ten, but honestly had to pour it out So my rating go down to like a three out of ten But this one I can actually I can actually like finish this one I'm like right here on this one So just want to say that I'm gonna try maybe ollie pop But I know this is really the only one that I like out of this brand So this is the only one I would buy So I gave her a side part because that's what she requested I didn't do too deep of a side part, but deep enough and I just kept the hair straight I did shampoo and condition the wig Didn't know if she wanted to straight a curl, but I just kept it straight You know straight is just an easy way to go. This is my lace tint that I use It is a little bit darker than my skin complexion So I feel like it'll be perfect just to go ahead and spray over I did bleach the knots of course, but since I use 30 volume I do like to use 40 bomb developer, but it didn't take as well As I would like it to do so I just sprayed the lacing on there just to you know Speed up the process if you will make it look a little bit better and blend in better with skin tone So after that, I just want to hit and sewed on the elastic band. This is me threading the needle Sewed on the band and baby we were done Oh, it's about us. I guess today is my lazy day of not doing anything but stuff in the house So okay, so I had to buy a new car mount because the one I got It just wasn't working out and I don't have anything to suction to suction it to so I got this one from Amazon, of course, whatever seller this is and if you link in my amazon store for it Hopefully this one works out better because that one It was only suction so I couldn't even suction it to my window because the sony zb1 flips out to the side And it just it wasn't working because I would have to do it upside down So I bought this one. Hopefully it works So I don't have to return it and speaking of returns. I just read a comment from A girl in the comments Kristen or Christine. I like you but the whole buying using and returning I like you but the whole buying using and returning I've heard you mentioned a couple times isn't cool the economy here in the us is messed up enough as it is And cost of production is astronomical and you're only adding to the issue by doing that I really wish you could reconsider and do what's ethically right. I said girl if I use something I said girl if I can't use something I'm returning it period But I also just removed her from my channel because I don't like it Like obviously, I don't care if you know, just wasn't your opinion Obviously, I'm the one who putting my life out there But once you once people start trying to tell me what to do You're removed from my channel because maybe girl, I'm gonna live my life. That's one thing like I'm a really I don't care person but Stuff like that just when you try to tell me what to do like maybe Don't nobody tell me what to do, you know, and it's like girl if I cannot use something Honey, I'm gonna return it and that's just one period like I'm sorry. We're not gonna be here forever Like there's no one that has lived forever.  I just hide the user from my channel. So, um Let me see. Let me show y'all An example if I got a YouTube channel beyond what I'm talking about, but Other than that It'll just be like I'm just gonna use somebody comment as a reference. So if you see yourself shout out to y'all So basically you will just hit these three dots right here in the corner When you hit the three dots, it'll say Well, let me go to the comment It'll say pin remove report or hide from channel So I always just hide from channel.  Okay. I'm like simple. Okay. So this one looks like um Attach the camera And then just suction it. I'm gonna put it on my window. I think this will work pretty well because you can like Turn this oh, this is like Oh, yeah, this is heavy duty. This isn't flimsy at all. Like it looks like it'll be flimsy. This is like baby you Really got to turn this mug Okay. Yeah, I like that and then this is just going to go on my Window to like suction And this one I guess is a sticky.  So now that's stuck And then you can peel this off and I could like stick it on my dashboard. So I think that's pretty cool I probably will use both of these. So I'll probably stick this on my dash And then if I want to get a different angle or something But then I'm just going to have it hanging from my window. So yeah, I think I want to like this 10 out of 10 I'm not returning this How do I know but yeah, okay, so I just got Back home from the gym I'm about to put up my new mount So I already got y'all on it because it's like kind of hard to turn.  This thing is Really good quality. Like I'm going to link this out of my amazon storefront because this is like So sturdy and it's like really hard to like move it up and down. So obviously your camera won't fall off, but I love it. Super cute. So it is 15 28 I'm a 15 is 3 30. So, um, I was about to go to slim chickens to get me some after Work, I mean after a workout protein, you know, you know But I just realized that I did not take my license to like my whole wallet to the gym So I had to come back home to get my wallet Also, I've got to go back to the nail shop because I accidentally chipped that today and baby, I'm not about to walk around for another two weeks with a chip nail Especially when we're trying to be all cute and show products and stuff. Mm-hmm. So about to go back to my god, jimmy That's on this side of town. I got two different nail shops that I like um And so yeah, the one that's closest to me I'm going to go to that one because that's who did it and He's going to fix my nail period and then we're going to get us some slim chickens And come back to the house and I need to look at on my list what I have to do today. Oh What I need to I need to go to I can drive and talk I need to go to um Hold on Okay, so I'm noticing it's a little wildly like it's stable like the Mount isn't going to where it's just me bumping over stuff. So yeah end of pens called Tcl or to you a I think they're like tool pens or tool or whatever. I don't know So I'm going to go get those and then I'm going to I don't know because they're on opposite directions Then I'm kind of going I think I want to go ahead and just get my nail fixed first and then I'm going to get me some food I don't know. I really should go to office depot first then, huh? So then I can just get my food and come back home and eat But then I got to go to target to see if they got those shorts on sale. Oh my gosh I'm kind of tired already though. So I don't think I need to use those pens tonight for anything So I think I'm just going to get my nail fixed and get food come back And then tomorrow, I do know I want that to be a full editing today.

Well a break after working for two hours basically So yeah, I feel like I'm rambling. I can't really think right now I'm tired. I'm hot my legs are noodles.

So I'm cool. I'm the massage chairs immaculate like everything was so nice So I love it But yeah, I'm gonna get off of here because I feel like the camera is just like shaking for whatever reason because the roads are like really They're rolling unstable.

I'm gonna start with youtube Actually, let's go to youtube studio And this is how I find I'm just gonna put my phone in front of my payment But this is where I keep up with everything youtube basically. So the subscribers amount we are so close to 30 000 Honey, are we trying to get 30 k before my birthday? Like come on now my birthday's august 1st Like we gotta hit 30 k on or before my birthday So that's why i'm trying to be consistent, but this is how I basically Go through everything and plan everything. So my content is all the videos that I have I have one more video to make public. I'll probably do that It's too late today either tomorrow or so and then all my other ones are good Um, this is just you know, just kind of how I see stuff my analytics Basically It tells you research overview content audience and your revenue So this is just telling me the top searches of how people are like finding my videos. This is how recent Videos that's related to like large luxury apartments. It just kind of gives you A better look at what people are looking at how people are finding you what maybe you know You could suggest or do so I am about to Look over these also after I get done updating things This is how I kind of plan out my videos to kind of see what's pop like pre-existing description box stuff Will already be there. So yeah, I'm going to be working on youtube for at least like Two hours because this is where the most chunk of my money and stuff is coming from I need this to be Good and also I may do a different layout for my actual Like youtube page because I just updated my thumbnail if you guys notice that Come on now So yeah, I just updated my thumbnail not so long ago. It's okay for now. I just wanted some Better pictures that is and then so like basically I got this video from three years ago Um, this is one of my most viewed videos. So I think okay moving this I think I want to rearrange this like my popular videos is always going to be right there So since that is right there on popular videos, I don't think I need that on there from three years ago Like come on out So I'm about to switch this out with one of my most recent popular videos or whatever Sometimes people put like their last upload a video here But I'm going to put another like recent popular video and then I got my apartment series So this is my first apartment series the second one the third one And then these are like it I call it weekly vlogs, but I'm just going to say keeping up with the kira jane Vlogs because some of these are not weekly vlogs, you know So this is usually if it doesn't fit into like an apartment category it literally just goes into vlogs or obviously any other category it will go into um I have morning routines. I have clothing hauls. I have click with me's I have christmas vlogs some of this stuff y'all can't see and then I have hair reviews, which has 49 videos So yeah, just making sure everything's going to be in categories I'm just going to kind of clean up my pages and then the next thing that I want to do is Pinterest and I actually have youtube up. I'm going to have something in my background While playing I think I'm going to put on Oh, and I also want to post my first youtube shorts I think I'm going to put on aliyah's face for the background because I've been basically slacking on her videos so Let's see Yes, so let's view channel Videos yes, so like I have a lot to watch like I started these And didn't even finish them. So yeah, like I have a lot to catch up on with her but yeah Another thing I wanted to do was work on my Pinterest. I'm going to be like I said on every social So this is my Pinterest. I know a lot of girlies have been posting like their tiktoks and just all kind of stuff I kind of wanted to just this up because I have 4.3 k monthly views So I'm like girl these pictures are old like these are so old And like it's just it just needs to be revamped like This crap is old And I've recently been getting a lot of people that's been saving My food like this steak and potatoes that I made years ago It has 3.7k impressions 243 clicks and 37 saves. So baby if y'all are liking the food I'm about to start posting food too And I see that my page is really doing good with this one photo. So I'm thinking I take a lot of pictures of my food. So I'm going to like post my food and stuff and I don't know We're just going to see I'm going to try out some stuff figure out my vibe and stuff with this But if I'm getting Almost 5k views a month like baby, I need to be posting on here. So that's that the same thing with like Instagram and tiktok Instagram isn't okay Instagram isn't too bad I kind of already updated my bio and And yeah That's that I do need to take some I don't know I may take some of these pictures like older pictures and put them on my archives because You know, like why do I need this on my page? You know, it's just not matching the vibes. So I'm going to do that with everything and janeis calling and I get back with y'all
