Hey,

posting everyday while running a brand and having many other things to do can be tiring and impractical. I am looking for a safe tool to automatically schedule and post posts (and possibly stories). As far as I know according to Instagram's terms this is forbidden. Or maybe it has changed recently?
By safe I mean that it won't get the account banned/shadow banned or lead to less engagement compared to manual posting.

What's your experience with this?

Thanks for the help, really love this forum and all the insight you all share here!

Buffer is working great. Not scraping 100% but can help you to automate it's a more white hat solution, Jarvee can be fully automated with reposting other accounts

I've been using "Later" since they seem to be IG official partner and so far so good. Nice UI and easy to use.

Thanks for your help. I don't need scraping or reposting from others, it should just be hands-off automatically publish the posts/stories. Any further suggestions?

By the way I don't get at all how with so many businesses using Instagram they haven't considered enabling scheduling through Business manager (and tools like hootsuite) like they have with Facebook...

There are 70 scheduling tools approved by Facebook. You can see the list here : https://www.facebook.com/business/solutions-explorer/community_management

I personally use Agorapulse

Does Later offer packages for ONLY instagram? I don't need all of the other platforms?

Buffer and Hootsuite are the best. The latter is my favourite.

You can use Hootsuite for this. That tool is completely safe and legit

Ok great, thanks for your input. I researched a bit further and Later seems like the best option, because they also allow scheduling stories.
