- Made for Stories and posts
- Pick a tall card for an Instagram Story or a shorter one for a feed post, sized the way each one expects.
- Instagram and Facebook in a tap
- Share straight to either one, save the image, copy a link to the place’s page, or send it anywhere else.
- The source, right on the card
- Every card shows the date, the station that reported it and when it was last updated, so nobody has to take your word for it.
