Comments on Buffer: Social Media Scheduler for Android

★★★★★ Leslie Ellis · Oct 30, 2026
Great for scheduling playlists on X. Free version is limited but usable. The paid version is affordable. It's a game changer.
★★★★★ Uzoma Raphael · Sep 14, 2026
I have been using the buffer app since yesterday the 13th of sept, and honestly it is a really nice app, easy to use and easy to navigate... I am currently using the free version, as I haven't opted in for the paid plan yet. But so far it has been a great experience on the app, uploading my posts on social media pages
★★★★★ Anthony Castelluci · Nov 6, 2026
Great way to organize post across multiple platforms. Excellent
★☆☆☆☆ Onyema OKwor · Oct 27, 2026
Wonderful 😊 just that my Facebook and Instagram didn't connect, and I don't know the reason
★★☆☆☆ workout 1 · Sep 18, 2026
Forms creation and scheduling really buggy. Unreliable for creating drafts. Edit drafts sets year to 3000 years in the future. 50% of scheduling disappear from the queue once you click schedule.
★☆☆☆☆ GEMMA JAY · Oct 27, 2026
App stopped working today, it said it needed to update, but there wasn't an update available. Tried forced reset, still not uploading posts. Uninstalled & installed again, now it won't recognize that I already have a login & have logged in online. Gave up & deleted app. On Android. Very disappointed.
★★☆☆☆ geofre · Oct 29, 2026
This absolutely never works for Instagram. Your post just gets stuck, and then you can't even edit it to fix it and resubmit it. It doesn't even tell you that it's stuck. You'll have to find out by checking Instagram after it's supposed to post, which defeats the whole purpose of having a scheduled post.
