Pull score
5/5

How hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment.

Why this qualified

An outlier is a post that beats the account's own baseline, and this app demo one did by 36x - 68K views where a normal post on the account lands near 1.9K. Reach on that scale is a signal about the post, not the audience size, which is exactly why Handler pulls it into the library instead of letting it scroll past.

The product behind the post is A detective puzzle game. Pull came in at 5/5, 16.0% on the weighted scale - Handler's read on saves, shares, and comments, with saves and shares counted heaviest because they are the actions that carry a post into new feeds rather than just marking approval.

Underneath the two scores sit the actual counts - 4.9K likes, 14 comments, 513 shares, and 970 saves - the raw engagement Handler reads to place the post in its niche.

The full breakdown - why the hook works, the comment-intent read, and the ready-to-shoot dupe kit - lives inside Handler.

Anatomy

The video opens directly on a full-screen mobile app capture, presenting a detective-style game interface without spoken audio. A short text overlay rests across the upper third of the screen to establish a situational premise. Over its roughly twelve-second runtime, the clip progresses through two main visual beats at a steady pace. The user taps through interactive search menus, typing a name into an input field to trigger an on-screen investigation sequence. The frame remains locked on the smartphone UI throughout the entire recording, displaying animated profile lookups, photo evidence cards, and progression badges before cutting out on the final search result.
