Instagram Scheduler

Schedule Instagram posts,
reels and stories in one place

Pick a date and time for posts, carousels, reels and stories, and they go live on their own. Schedule stories the Instagram app can't, add a first comment, and manage scheduled posts for many accounts — all in Posteady.

How is this different from scheduling in the Instagram app?

The Instagram app can schedule posts and reels. Posteady handles the rest.

Every Instagram format, scheduled

Schedule the way you post in the app. Each format is checked against Instagram's limits before it goes out.

Post
Schedule a photo post with up to 2,200 characters of caption and 30 hashtags.
Carousel
Bundle 2–10 photos and videos into one scheduled post.
Reel
Schedule videos up to 15 minutes and add up to 3 collaborators.
Story
Schedule one photo or a video up to 60 seconds long — something the Instagram app can't do.
  • Connect an Instagram professional (business or creator) account.
  • Instagram's API doesn't support stickers like music or polls, so scheduled stories can't include them. Each account can publish up to 100 posts per 24 hours (Instagram API limit).

Everything after scheduling, in one place

Send DMs automatically when your posts get comments, and decide what to post by checking how competitor accounts perform.

When a comment includes your keyword, Posteady posts a public reply and sends your link by DM, then collects follows and emails as leads.
Compare followers and post views, likes and comments across competitor Instagram accounts in one place.

Instagram scheduling in three steps

Connect your account once, then just pick what to post and when.

  1. 1

    Connect Instagram

    Connect a professional (business or creator) account. Manage several accounts together in one workspace.

  2. 2

    Add content and pick a time

    Upload photos and videos or create captions, carousels and reels with AI, then pick the format and time. Set a first comment and collaborators here too.

  3. 3

    It goes live on time

    Your post goes live on Instagram at the time you set. Drag it on the calendar to change the time.
