What you can post
What You Can Schedule on Instagram
How connecting works
Connect with Instagram's own login. You need a professional account (business or creator), which is free to switch to in Instagram's settings, and no Facebook Page is required. SolMarrow never sees your password and renews access automatically before it expires.
Image posts
A single photo with a caption of up to 2,200 characters and alt text, so your post is readable for people using screen readers.
Reels
Upload one video and it publishes as a Reel. SolMarrow checks the file against Instagram's 300 MB limit before you schedule, not after it fails.
Carousels
Up to 10 images and videos in one swipeable post. Mix photos and clips freely in the same post.
How it works

Write once, tailor it
Write the post, then adjust the text and media for Instagram. The preview shows how it will look, and the composer flags anything Instagram won't accept.
- 03
Schedule or publish
Pick a date and time in your workspace's time zone, publish right away, or save a draft. SolMarrow posts on time, even when you're offline.

Tips
Instagram tips that make every scheduled post work harder.
Grow on Instagram
Hook in the first line
Instagram cuts captions after about two lines in the feed. Put the reason to stop scrolling first and the details after.
Use carousels for saves
Step-by-step guides, before-and-after shots and checklists work well as carousels because people swipe through and save them for later.
Keep Reels vertical
Film in 9:16 and keep the important part of the frame away from the edges, where Instagram places the caption and buttons.
Your Brand

Post at a steady pace
A plan you can keep up beats bursts of posting. Batch a week of content in one sitting and let the calendar do the rest.
Write alt text
A short description of each image helps people who use screen readers and gives Instagram more context about your post.
FAQ
Instagram Scheduling Questions, Answered
Still have a question? Write to us and we will help you get set up.
Ask a QuestionYes. SolMarrow publishes image posts, Reels and carousels directly through Instagram's official API at the time you schedule. You don't get a reminder to finish the post on your phone; it simply goes live.
You need a professional account, which can be a business or a creator account. Switching is free in Instagram's settings and keeps your followers and posts. A Facebook Page is not required.
Not yet. SolMarrow schedules image posts, Reels and carousels. Stories are not part of what we publish today.
Instagram has no text-only posts. SolMarrow's composer shows this before you schedule, so you can add media or leave Instagram out of that post.
SolMarrow has no limit on accounts or posts, even on the free plan. Instagram itself caps how many posts one account can publish through its API in 24 hours, which is far above normal posting.
Likes, comments, shares and views for each post, read from Instagram and shown in Insights next to your other networks. Recent posts are refreshed often in their first days, then less often.
The Instagram integration is built and working. Meta is reviewing SolMarrow's app, and Instagram connections open to every account as soon as that review is complete.
