If you\u2019ve ever used Instagram for any length of time, you\u2019ll likely know what a schlep it is to get a proper post-scheduling setup going. You need to head to your favorite app store, pick up a dedicated app, and then use that in conjunction with the official Instagram utility to get your posts out at the optimal time. Posting at the optimal time<\/strong> means higher engagement with your posts – and we all know that the most important aspect of modern life is a sufficient social media following<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n

However, the arduous reality of having to use an excessive two whole apps to schedule posts is potentially at an end. Meta is messing with a way to do it all from the Instagram app. This is life-changing to anyone who knows the struggle <\/strong>of clamoring for relevance online by essentially petitioning other people to like and pay attention to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018We are testing the ability to schedule content with a percentage of our global community.\u2019 These are the sentiments of a Meta spokesperson who recently spoke about the massively popular photo and video-sharing platform. This, of course, means that only a small sample<\/strong> of users will be able to access this feature, leaving the rest stumbling around from dedicated app to dedicated app for a short while longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta has yet to announce a release date for this highly-anticipated feature. However, users have had access to a similar feature <\/strong>since 2020 through the Facebook Creator Studio. This, unfortunately, serves no purpose for those who don\u2019t have access to the dedicated social media management utility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A prototype of the new Instagram feature was spotted first by Alessandro Paluzzi<\/a>, a mobile developer and app researcher. He uncovered the feature in July 2022<\/strong> but informed publications at the time that the feature was simply an \u2018early prototype of an experience that we are not publicly testing.\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
