A single workspace that connects your content, your team, and your schedule.

What you can schedule on Instagram

Every format below publishes automatically at the time you choose. No reminders, no copying captions from another app.

Feed posts and carousels

Single images, multi-image carousels and mixed photo and video carousels with per-slide ordering.

Reels

Upload vertical video, pick a cover frame and schedule the exact publish minute.

Stories

Image and video Stories that publish automatically, no phone notification to tap.

First comment

Keep hashtags out of the caption by posting them as the first comment the moment the post goes live.

Instagram limits and sizes

PostSyncer checks these limits while you compose, so a post that schedules cleanly also publishes cleanly. Values are Instagram’s published limits as of 2026.

Element Limit or size
Caption 2,200 characters, up to 30 hashtags
Feed images 1080×1350 (4:5) or 1080×1080; carousels up to 20 items
Reels Up to 3 minutes, 1080×1920 (9:16)
Stories 1080×1920, up to 60 seconds per clip
Account type Business or Creator account linked to a Facebook Page

Instagram scheduling FAQ

Can I schedule Instagram Reels and Stories, or only feed posts?

All three. PostSyncer schedules feed posts, carousels, Reels and Stories to Business and Creator accounts and publishes them automatically through Instagram’s API.

What is the Instagram caption limit and does PostSyncer enforce it?

Captions hold 2,200 characters and 30 hashtags. The composer counts down as you type and flags anything Instagram would reject before you schedule it.

Does a scheduled first comment work on Instagram?

Yes. Write the first comment when you schedule the post and PostSyncer publishes it seconds after the post goes live, which keeps hashtags out of the caption.

Which Instagram accounts can be connected?

Business and Creator accounts linked to a Facebook Page. Personal accounts must be switched to Creator first, which takes about a minute in the Instagram app.

Can I post the same content to Instagram and other networks at once?

Yes. Compose once, then customise the caption and media per network before scheduling everything from the same calendar.
