The following is a transcript of the video generated by a computer. The wording may be different.

[00:01] Hey, everyone from OneClick, this is Kevin. I'm going to talk about what Rotating Buddies is. So, you can see here that I've already pre-set up everyone in their Rotating Buddies sets. That's why they have a 2x next to their name. Basically, I take everybody and put them onto the lineup. So, I could take Cole here, and so now he's in three spots. But I can also put him, let's say, in this third set. So, I'm basically just dragging and dropping them into that way. So, I'm going to put Ezra here into green just to kind of show the differences of what actually happens inside of Rotating Buddies. Just know that they are not actually on break, but besides point.

[00:41] So, the idea is, for example, for Kennedy and Cole here, one is inside and one is outside. So, I can click on this little arrow here, and it switches their positions. It also has a little timer and how many times it actually rotated them. So, I can click it again and it flips them back. And the idea behind this is if it's too hot, too cold, or whatever outside, you can have people switch inside and outside without having to drag and drop, which would take forever. You could just click, they switch.

[01:13] Now you can also do that with more people. So, in this case, the three. The idea is that you could have like your bag checker here, your drinks, your desserts, maybe your window, and you want to switch them every 10, 15 minutes or whatever, just like you would outside. And I can click on this arrow here, and you can see how as I click it, they switch positions. And you can have that all there. Now, the other cool thing that you can do is, let's say Cole is in two positions, like he is the dining room person and window, which doesn't make any sense whatsoever. But as I switch here, Kennedy is now in two positions. So, I could switch them again, and they would only be like that way. Now, that doesn't make any sense, but maybe you have Cole is outside, but is also outside expo. So, if it's like super bad, maybe you have more people here, whatever. He's also running, and then he's going to switch with Kennedy and window, and then both of them are going to switch like the whole position.

[02:09] So, whatever you guys want to think about of what you want to do with these rotating buddies here, that's what they're for. So, you can switch them rather easily, and you have how long they've been switched.
