Students can post topics when their educator turns on "Students can post topics."
When educators create a group for "University" and "Adult" groups, "Students can post topics" is turned on by default. Educators can set up topic permissions at the group level at any time.
With this feature, Flip helps you generate topic ideas. Through your keywords, language selection, and student age range, you will get five suggestions which you can easily modify.

If your phone is set to Spanish (ES-ES or ES-MX), then you'll automatically find Flip in Spanish when you update to the latest version of the Flip app.
The group feed is an optional view you can choose when you open a group. The feed automatically plays videos most recently posted to a group. As you swipe, you can watch videos in order of newest to oldest.
After you create a new group or for any of your existing groups, you can edit the join code in the link to characters of your choice. There are some guidelines to keep in mind, like character limit.

Some students might be able to update their current student account or create a new educator account that gives them educator capabilities, like group and topic creation.
Educators can create groups with the link set up as "Anyone with the link can join." That means the group link can be shared so that anyone who clicks it can join. Educators can change this group link setting at any time.
Students on Flip should use their school email address. If they'd like to become an educator, they might be eligible to use a personal email address. To check their eligibility, they must use their school email address and follow these instructions.
