# Numbered Day-N series of iPhone tips

A tech and ai format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/tech-and-ai/numbered-day-n-series-of-iphone-tips

Package quick iPhone tips as 'Day 1, Day 2, Part 3' of an ongoing series instead of one-off videos. It worked for 3 accounts, with a median of 16x their usual reach. Type: Angle. Seen as: Talking head, Voiceover.

## Why it works

The numbering makes each post feel like part of a run, so viewers follow for the next one. Johnny's Day 1, 2 and 3 posts all reached roughly 0.8M to 2.7M views.

## How to make it

1. Open by saying which day or part of the series this is
2. Cover 4-6 tips for a device everyone owns
3. Demonstrate each tip live on the phone
4. Tease the next day or part

## Hook formula

This is day [number] of showing you how to use your [device people already own]. I'm about to give away all of my secrets.

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
