Comments on Buffer: Social Media Planner for Android

★★★★★ Awesome, simple, direct and no nonsense social media sharing app. I ❤️ it. Thank you devs...🙏

★★★★★ Over all very good, but could be better. Ultimately, if you want to adapt a post for each social media channel, you'll have to write a post for each separately. I've seen services where you can write one post, select which channels you'll be sending it to, then edit a version for each channel, and post them all with one click. That's a great time saver which Buffer doesn't appear to have. You can either write them separately OR send identical posts to all channels.

★★★★★ I like that I can schedule and pretty much forget about posting. It sends a notification when your last scheduled post is due to pay, so you know to add more material to your queue.

★★☆☆☆ Doesn't actually post automatically, my queue was cleared, but the posts were never added to Instagram/Facebook. Will be uninstalling and looking for one that actually works

★★☆☆☆ Buffer used to be great, but with the update of these social media platforms, your reach is minimal with this platform. Almost no one sees my posts on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram if I use a scheduled post from Buffer. However, if I post directly to IG or FB, then more people see my posts. I've tested this multiple times and have reached the same result.

★★☆☆☆ Awful experience. Extremely bloated. Both the app and the web version are slow and buggy. Perhaps they should try to make scheduling work naturally, instead of chasing after features no one cares about.
