This week’s #MMSocialReport brings good news and bad: Facebook is increasing its efforts to monitor harmful posts, but a social media app disappeared this week.
We also covered Twitter’s next step in the live video takeover and Apple’s latest mobile app. A lot went on in social media this week and you could use the update:
More than ever, social media channels are listening to the preferences and concerns of their users, and the result is a constant evolution of the apps and sites we love. This week, Twitter launched its homegrown alternative to Storify, and added promoted tweets to user profiles.

Lastly, Snapchat execs addressed the concerns about privacy, bugs, and transparency in an exclusive and rare interview. Ch-ch-ch-changes!
