The video leverages a relatable and slightly controversial topic (iPad kids) and subverts expectations by showcasing a positive outcome (impressive nail art). The humor and the unexpected skill of the child likely contributed to its shareability.
Summary
A woman shows off a full set of acrylic nails done by her 13-year-old niece, who used an iPad for guidance. The creator humorously suggests that iPad usage might not be entirely detrimental for children.

1Introduction of the niece and her nail art project
2Demonstration of the niece using an iPad for instructions
3Showcase of the completed nail set
4Creator's commentary on iPad usage and skill development
Product placement
iPad: it ACTS - it is used by the niece to follow instructions for doing a full set of nails. Removing it would change what happens in the video. Nail polish bottles and UV lamp: they APPEAR - they are tools for doing nails, but are not operated or shown to produce a result. Removing them would not change what happens in the video.
