I work with a few clients over Instagram for their marketing. Here are some of the apps I use
- plann
- planoly
- later
- tailwind
Do you have any other ideas/recommendations?
I am not familiar with the first 2, what are they all about?!
And have you ever heard of Byond?
I just came across it the other day and I don't think many people know about it at all! I couldn't even find a website for it just now! Only a Google Chrome Extension Page... However it lets you Post to Instagram straight from your computer instantly when you see any photo anywhere on the net... FOR FREE!
Its kind of like Tailwind scheduler but for Instagram and FREE!
Heres a video explaining it:

Instagram is not my main focus in my business nor do I have clients whose accounts I manage, but I have been playing around with some helpful apps!
Lisa-a photo analyzing app that estimates engagement on a potential post, offers caption ideas and hashtag inspiration
Unfold-helps you create lovely looking images for instagram stories
Smarthash- Analyzes the reach of the hashtags you use and also has a split-test feature to help measure performance
Spacie- helps you get the spacing you want and prevent instagram from collapsing the spaces you write. You can also use it to get italics or bold fonts in your captions.
I paid the $2.99 or whatever to use Spacie but the other apps are free, with the option to upgrade to paid plans. I haven't used them enough to commit to that yet tho!
Wow! Byond and Smarthash are both game changers for me!
Another good App for creating Spacing in your Captions is "Caption Writer"
It is also Free with Paid Upgrade options. But totally gets the job done without having to Upgrade. So check that one out too...
