The hook names an adversary
"This is the iPhone storage secret that Apple does not want you to know." The information is positioned as something being withheld, and somebody specific is doing the withholding.
A tutorial hook has to beat the viewer's assumption that they can look this up later. Naming an adversary does it, because withheld information has a shelf life that a tip does not. The claim is doing no work that the word secret alone would do; the work is in the phrase does not want you to know.
3,550,327 views against a median of 1,086,462
The Reels analysed ran from 3,550,327 down to 417,865, with a median of 1,050,232. The one that broke out did 3.4 times that median, against 3,137,402, 1,050,232, 710,837 for the next scripted Reels on the account.
That ratio is the only reason this account is on the site. 3,550,327 views means nothing on its own, because a large account produces large numbers by existing. 3.4 times the account's own median is a statement about the Reel.

49,279 comments. Tutorials about a device almost everyone owns produce replies because every viewer has a version of the problem, and most of them want to say so. All five Reels analysed are scripts of 86 to 424 words.
