Reels have a huge importance on your performance and are one of the best ways for you to be creative and go over the top when interacting with your audience!
You can use Plann's Auto Post feature to automatically post Instagram Reels to your Instagram account!
Plann will help you organize yourself and avoid any delays or last-minute stress by allowing you to plan ahead, schedule your Reels, and set the auto post for your preferred date and time.
Here's how to do it on your mobile app:
Click the + button and upload your vertical Reel video
Once the Reel has uploaded, select the video from your Plann grid
Upload your Reels Cover Image
Schedule your Reel + we will auto-post it for you at the time of your choosing!
Here's how to do it on your desktop:
Upload your video from the Reels tab on your Instagram workspace
Upload your Reels Cover Image
Schedule your Reel + we will auto-post it for you at the time of your choosing!
Here's a quick video showing how to schedule an Instagram Reel in just 2 minutes:
If you'd like to auto-post Instagram Reels, you will need to use the following specifications:
5 seconds to 15 minutes max
9:16 aspect ratio*
No more than 100MB
*For the aspect ratio we recommend 9:16 to avoid cropping or blank space. If the aspect ratio of the original image is not 9:16, we crop the image and use the middle most 9:16 rectangle as the cover photo for the reel. If you share a reel to your feed, we crop the image and use the middle most 1:1 square as the cover photo for your feed post.
Videos with cover images are supported for both manual and Auto Posting!
If you choose to have a cover image, please make sure to select the cover image and the video - if only the cover is selected, the publishing won't be completed.
Your Reels planning space perfectly syncs with your Plann app. After scheduling, if the auto post option is off, when it’s time to post, we’ll send a push notification to your mobile device. To manually schedule and post an Instagram Reel, follow these steps:
Simply tap the Instagram icon and your Reel will be saved to the top of your camera roll.
Open Instagram and choose to upload your video
Paste the caption or hashtags you’ve saved within your Plann app (this is automatically saved to your clipboard).
Post to Instagram! YAY
