## Best time to post

Evenings and weekends usually work best for pet content, but your own audience matters more. Post, wait a day, and check your analytics.

## Questions and answers
### Do I need to label it as AI?
TikTok, Instagram and YouTube all ask creators to label realistic AI content. It does not hurt views and keeps your account safe.

### Why does my video have black bars?
It should not: the video is 9:16. If you edited it in another app, check the export size is 1080x1920 or 720x1280.

### Can I share it on WhatsApp?
Yes. Use the Share button after download, or send the MP4 like any video.
