Schedule your Instagram Stories, Reels, and posts with SocialBee

Instagram allows Business and Creator accounts to schedule Instagram posts like Reels, photos, and carousel posts. You can schedule up to 25 times per day and 75 days in advance through the app. You need a professional account, and you can manage scheduled content from your profile under Scheduled content.

For more flexibility, an Instagram scheduler like SocialBee lets you plan ahead for every Instagram format, including Collaborative posts, Reels, and Stories. You can also bulk upload content, preview your Instagram feed, auto-post the first comment, and get best-time-to-post suggestions. All of this is possible in just a few clicks.

To schedule posts directly within the Instagram app, you need a professional account, which can be either a Business account or a Creator account.

With SocialBee, you can schedule content on all three account types. Business and Creator posts publish automatically, while Personal accounts receive reminders with the media and caption ready to post.

The best Instagram scheduler depends on how much control you need. Instagram’s built-in scheduler is useful for publishing standard posts and Reels in advance, but it lacks advanced tools and does not support every format.

SocialBee offers more. It supports every Instagram format, including Stories and Collaborative posts, and adds features like bulk uploads, grid preview, auto first-comment posting, best-time-to-post recommendations, and more.

No. Instagram still supports scheduling for Business and Creator accounts. The built-in scheduler is limited because it only works with posts, carousels, and Reels, and you can schedule up to 25 posts per day and no more than 75 days in advance.

With an Instagram scheduler like SocialBee, you are not restricted by these limits. You can schedule every Instagram format, including Stories and Collaborative posts, and use advanced features like bulk uploads, grid preview, expiration dates, and first-comment posting.

Yes. Instagram includes a basic scheduler in the app and Meta Business Suite for Business and Creator accounts, but its Instagram scheduling options are limited.
