So if you've found what they're 00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:14.240 talking about really valuable and you want to 00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:16.879 leave them a comment, you can do. We can also 00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:19.300 send them along a nice small amount of money 00:00:19.300 --> 00:00:22.500 as well as a thank you. I love when you find 00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:29.269 new things. becoming so much clearer. You know, 00:00:29.350 --> 00:00:33.189 this podcast is going to be really useful.

And I'm Sam 00:01:00.890 --> 00:01:05.329 Sethi, the CEO and founder of TrueFans. We've 00:01:05.329 --> 00:01:08.730 started talking about the fun features that surround 00:01:08.730 --> 00:01:11.510 the listening experience within True Fans, which 00:01:11.510 --> 00:01:14.969 are found using the icons and tabs on the episode 00:01:14.969 --> 00:01:18.409 screen. Visit episode seven of this show if you're 00:01:18.409 --> 00:01:20.269 not sure what I'm talking about when I say the 00:01:20.269 --> 00:01:23.500 episode screen. Next to the heart icon, which 00:01:23.500 --> 00:01:26.659 we talked about in the previous episode, is the 00:01:26.659 --> 00:01:30.620 playlist icon, which we have spoken about in 00:01:30.620 --> 00:01:33.260 more detail in episode eight. So that's all you 00:01:33.260 --> 00:01:35.599 need to know about that. So we're going to skip 00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:40.500 along. The next icon is a speech bubble. What 00:01:40.500 --> 00:01:44.379 happens when I click on this icon, Sam? It pulls 00:01:44.379 --> 00:01:48.319 up a tab where you can write a comment. You can 00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:50.819 basically write your content of your comment. 00:01:51.049 --> 00:01:54.290 and you can if you want to just send that comment 00:01:54.290 --> 00:01:56.150 straight away you don't have to pay anything 00:01:56.150 --> 00:01:59.909 but if you choose to you can send a comment with 00:01:59.909 --> 00:02:03.030 a payment so that's what we call a super comment 00:02:03.030 --> 00:02:06.090 and a super comment can be with a small amount 00:02:06.090 --> 00:02:09.430 or a big amount whatever you want and this is 00:02:09.430 --> 00:02:12.169 part of what we want to do to give back again 00:02:12.169 --> 00:02:15.090 to creators so if you've found what they're talking 00:02:15.090 --> 00:02:17.050 about really valuable and you want to leave them 00:02:17.050 --> 00:02:20.189 a comment you can do we can also send them along 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:22.699 a nice small amount of money as well as a thank 00:02:22.699 --> 00:02:28.419 you. Brilliant. To set a default amount of currency 00:02:28.419 --> 00:02:31.400 or number of sats that you want to give with 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:35.439 every super comment for every show or to set 00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:38.620 an amount for one particular show follow Sam's 00:02:38.620 --> 00:02:42.300 instructions in the heart icon episode but key 00:02:42.300 --> 00:02:45.520 in the amount in the box labeled super comment. 00:02:47.580 --> 00:02:52.120 When that's happened Is there a way that the 00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:55.280 creator is then told that that has happened? 00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:00.680 Yes. The creator is notified via a number of 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.500 mechanisms. One will be a screen notification 00:03:03.500 --> 00:03:06.659 to the creator which will say, Claire or Sam 00:03:06.659 --> 00:03:10.240 has just left you a comment. Or in the same way 00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:13.139 with a heart or a like. You can see it in your 00:03:13.139 --> 00:03:15.599 creator's admin dashboard where the comments 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.099 are all listed. And you can also choose as the 00:03:19.099 --> 00:03:21.419 creator because you might not want to. You can 00:03:21.419 --> 00:03:24.460 choose to have us send you an email as well which 00:03:24.460 --> 00:03:26.340 will tell you you've just had a comment left 00:03:26.340 --> 00:03:29.580 by Claire and this is what she said. Brilliant. 00:03:29.939 --> 00:03:32.400 We're going to cover a few of those aspects a 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:34.759 bit further down the line with regards to the 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:38.550 creator's dashboard. As a listener, I can also 00:03:38.550 --> 00:03:41.569 see comments that other people have made on an 00:03:41.569 --> 00:03:43.930 episode. We talked about in the previous episode, 00:03:44.030 --> 00:03:46.689 the little metadata and you can see how many 00:03:46.689 --> 00:03:49.490 hearts somebody has given a show. And if somebody 00:03:49.490 --> 00:03:52.909 has commented on an episode, that little speech 00:03:52.909 --> 00:03:56.469 bubble icon comes up again underneath the show 00:03:56.469 --> 00:04:00.650 art above the play resume button and along with 00:04:00.650 --> 00:04:04.659 a number. Now, if I actually click on that, I 00:04:04.659 --> 00:04:06.539 can then see the comments that have been made. 00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:09.560 Is that right? Correct. Yes. And you can even 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.560 reply to a comment as well if you want. Ah, that's 00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.980 interesting. So in fact, I'm looking at it now 00:04:16.980 --> 00:04:19.439 on my screen. I have a little tick and I have 00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:22.879 a share and I have a flag button under this comment 00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:24.759 that somebody's left on the show. So can you 00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.480 just give me a little rundown of that? Yes. So 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.240 again, somebody's written a comment. Somebody 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:34.339 might just like that comment. So I love what 00:04:34.339 --> 00:04:36.600 you've just said to the creator and I agree with 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:40.560 it. I want to share this comment to social media 00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:44.079 or via email or some other mechanism. I hate 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:46.100 this comment. This is really bad. They've just 00:04:46.100 --> 00:04:48.540 said some really nasty things. I want to flag 00:04:48.540 --> 00:04:51.139 this comment up for somebody to look at it and 00:04:51.139 --> 00:04:53.160 maybe delete it. So that will then come to the 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:56.980 creator as a flag notification and to me and 00:04:56.980 --> 00:05:00.019 the rest of the team here as a flag notification. 00:05:00.329 --> 00:05:03.149 but we need to look at that comment for anything. 00:05:03.569 --> 00:05:06.629 And you can leave a comment in that flag as well 00:05:06.629 --> 00:05:09.689 to guide us as to why you've flagged it. And 00:05:09.689 --> 00:05:11.550 then finally, of course, you might just want 00:05:11.550 --> 00:05:13.709 to reply to a comment and how it started a threaded 00:05:13.709 --> 00:05:15.870 conversation, normal stuff that you would see 00:05:15.870 --> 00:05:19.110 on anywhere on social media. Yeah, exactly. Oh, 00:05:19.110 --> 00:05:23.930 that's brilliant. Thank you. Cool. I love when 00:05:23.930 --> 00:05:30.420 you find new things. becoming so much clearer. 00:05:30.860 --> 00:05:32.519 You know, this podcast is going to be really 00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:38.480 useful. Thanks so much for listening.
