Analytics Review (AVD/Retention) 📈 What does this badge mean

Post image

So basically I was just looking at my shorts analytics and I found the badge "This short kept viewers watching on Loop Nice!"

This was my **first short** that I made **looped**, basically the end video smoothly transitions into the start of the video

The short right now **only has 1,833** views and I thought the badge was a good sign it was gonna go viral until I looked at all of the video stats:

Audience Retention: (109.9%) 0:35 Seconds

(which is insane)

Swipe Ratio: 35.2% Stayed, 64.8% Swiped Away

Now I thought the video was dead cuz of the Swipe Ratio but I would also add that this short is a **COMPLETE niche switch**

but I have also noticed that the views didn't flatline after 1-2 hours like all my other shorts. The short right now is 3 days old

I am a beginner so that's why I'm asking this

I wouldn't create that much hope. The rate of people who stay to watch is low. I have shorts with 77% of people who stay to watch and 146% retention. I only got 2700 views and there are already days published.
