Explore and share company content with Amplify
Audience: Advocates
You can explore and share any content available from your organization in either the Amplify mobile app Home feed or the topic lists in the Amplify desktop app. This includes highlights from the latest content, popular content, and topics you aren’t subscribed to yet.
Note: You might find that some content is either not editable or not shareable on certain social networks. Amplify admins can “lock” certain social networks for individual pieces of content, and they may designate some content for certain social networks only.
Explore Amplify content
Browse through your organization's content to find items that interest you and that you might want to share.
The Amplify mobile app offers two ways to browse available content:
From Home

- Share more content. This option takes you to the Content feed, which contains all content in your chosen topics, and all content tagged for everyone in the organization.
- Share more popular content. This option takes you to the Popular feed, containing the 10 most popular posts for the week in your organization. Popularity is ranked based on number of reads, likes, and shares.
- Explore All Topics. This option takes you to the Topics feed, which contains content from all of the topics you have access to but aren't yet subscribed to.
From Content
Selecting Content in the mobile app shows you content from all of the topics you're currently subscribed to.
