👥 Swipe Files: Curated Boards From Our Team

What is Swipe Files?


Swipe Files is a collection of public boards put together by the GetHookd team. Each board gathers ads we think are worth studying, so you get a head start on inspiration without building a collection from scratch.


You'll find it under Discover → Swipe Files in the left menu.


Swipe Files vs. Swipe File — what's the difference?
Swipe Files (this article) are curated boards built by our team, shared with everyone.
Swipe File is your own private collection of ads you've saved. Nobody else sees it.
They sit near each other in the menu, so it's worth knowing which one you're in.


Previously called Expert Picks, and Staff Picks before that. Only the name changed — the boards, and anything you've already saved from them, are exactly where you left them.


Exploring Swipe Files:


  • Search by Text: Utilize the search function to find specific public boards based on relevant keywords.
  • View Public Boards: Click on a public board to access its contents.
  • Save a Public Board as Private: If you find a public board particularly useful, you can save it as a private board within your workspace for future reference.
  • Board Details: Get an overview of each public board, including the number of ads it contains and how many times it's been saved by other users.
  • Infinite Scrolling: Effortlessly browse through a seemingly endless list of public boards.


Board View:


When you access a public board from Swipe Files, you'll have a "restricted view" of the included ads, as described in the "Restricted View" section of the Ad List article. This means you'll see basic information about each ad, such as content format, description, saving time, platform, number of likes, CTA type, and categories.


Additional Functionalities:


  • Sort by Saving Time: Organize the ads within a public board chronologically by "Oldest to Newest" or "Newest to Oldest" based on the saving time.
  • Infinite Scrolling Ads: Effortlessly browse through all the ads included within a public board.


By exploring Swipe Files, you can gain valuable insights from curated ad collections assembled by the GetHookd team. You can discover new creative approaches, stay updated on advertising trends, and save inspiring boards for future reference within your workspace.
