This software is a blessing

Thank you!! 😁

[@alexislunsford2998]

Hi, thanks so much for this helpful video! I am currently using the scheduler called plann and they have a feature where you can rearrange the images/posts on the IG feed preview. Is this a feature that metricool supports? Thanks!

[@metricoolapp]

@@alexislunsford2998 hi Alexis! Unfortunately we do not offer this feature YET!🫶🏼 but hopefully, soon!

[@Raysspace-k3q]

Wonderful tool! Im wondering how do u find out the best time to post?

[@metricoolapp]

Hi! To find the best time to post on Metricool, navigate to the "Planning" section, where the calendar will display your optimal posting times based on your audience's activity; the darkest color on the calendar indicates the best time to post, and you can also see a percentage of active followers at each time slot to further analyze your best posting window

[@Raysspace-k3q]

@ So the "time-strategy" is based on my past impressions performance?

[@beatricemwihaki3776]

Hi. How do you add music on reels and can you put links or tags on stories?

[@metricoolapp]

Hello! Currently, 3rd party tools don't have access to trending sounds via the platform APIs. We hope they will add it in the future! A workaround to this could be to either import the video into the planner with the audio already attached or you can schedule with a push notification and add in the sound as a finishing touch at the time of posting. ☺️

[@metricoolapp]

As for stories, this is also an API limitation! Links and tags on stories are only available within the native platform.

@@metricoolapp Is there a video tutorial to "schedule with a push notification and add in the sound as a finishing touch at the time of posting."

[@metricoolapp]

@@springroll38 Coming soon on a long form video but we do have this short that hopefully can help in a condensed version: kzbin.info984MZdoIwOk

[@Hobbyplotter]

Is there any way to just "like" user comments in metricool?

[@metricoolapp]

hi! Unfortunately, you can't right now, but you can reply to them!

[@HarmonyWheeler]

Does the "list of posts" include reels?

[@metricoolapp]

Yes! There is a separate section that lists your reels. :)

[@HarmonyWheeler]

@@metricoolapp But is there a place that combines reels and static posts for an overall comparison of what’s working best?

[@metricoolapp]

If you look under the summary page, you can see both :)

[@massimiliano_pioli]

Hi, it’s possible planning collaborative post on Instagram?

[@metricoolapp]

Hello! So that is a limitation via the API, if you are looking to add a collaborator, you can always schedule it with a push notification so that when it comes time to post, the photo/video and caption will be downloaded and you can add in a finishing touches like tags or that collaborator option. ☺️

[@mirthekus]

Hi, thanks for all the information. I have a question; when I'm editing my video in for example instagram I can't download it with music, right? So I can't schedule the video with a song from instagram? If I'm editing in for example Capcut, I can put music in but not the viral music from instagram or tiktok. I search forever on Google and KZbin but I can't find any solution. Or maybe this is a stupid question, I'm sorry I'm just starting😂

[@metricoolapp]

We responded to your other comment but I am also linking a YT short that explains how to publish manually in case that helps too. :) kzbin.info984MZdoIwOk?feature=share

[@mirthekus]

@@metricoolapp Thank you very much

[@giulesti17]

Ca you repost stories where you were tagged using Metricool ?

[@metricoolapp]

Hello! We are unable to do reposts! You will see them appear in the Inbox but reposts need to be done in the native app!

[@allabouteveshop]

Hi, did I miss it but what is UTM? Thanks.

[@metricoolapp]

UTM links are links that have parameters associated with them so you can track your traffic based on things like source, campaign, medium, etc! For example, with our UTM generator, you can then track how those links are performing in Google Analytics. :)

Can you explain why I need a tax Id number to purchase a plan with Metricool?

[@metricoolapp]

Hi Jeremy! Please reach out to our customer support here so they can look into this for you: metricool.com/contact/

[@whysee84]

Can we add topics to our Reels in Metricool?

[@metricoolapp]

This is not currently available through the API! If you would like to add topics to your video, we suggest scheduling with a push notification so you can add in those finishing touches like topics, sounds, etc.

[@whysee84]

@@metricoolapp Ok thanks

[@metricoolapp]

You're welcome!

I keep getting an error aspect ratio with instagram. I also downloaded in Canva and rescheduled and it still gives me the error code. what to do?

[@DJChinChin]

The program likes instagram portrait.

[@metricoolapp]

@@DJChinChin Hello! Please reach out to our chat support so they can investigate the error code for you: metricool.com/contact/

[@thevioletcreator]

With manual posting (push notifications) you said it will download whatever was set and then we can do it manually within the platform. But which platform Metricool or Instagram? Does merticool redirect us to IG so that we can post directly there? Or it just opens the edit page in metricool app?

[@metricoolapp]

You would click on the push notification, everything will download and you will be redirected to Instagram. 😊
