Buffer: Scheduling for Twitter, Instagram & More
By Buffer, Inc.
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
Share and schedule posts to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest and LinkedIn – all from one place.
Any link, text, picture or video you want to share, just add it to your Buffer. Your updates will automatically be scheduled and spaced out throughout the day to post to your favorite social networks. Plus, you can custom schedule or "post now" right inside the app.
Say you find 5 great articles and 2 funny photos you want to share. If you post them all in a row, you might flood your friends and followers who are online – and totally miss those who aren't. Instead, add these posts to your Buffer, and you'll have great social updates for the next few days.

• Share to multiple Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+, LinkedIn and Pinterest accounts from one place.

• Schedule your posts automatically so you never have to worry about setting a time and date. Just hit “Buffer”.
• Schedule your posts using a Custom Time to schedule for specific events or campaigns.
• Share from all of your favourite apps using our iOS extension. Including scheduling native retweets from Safari, Tweetbot, Twitter & more!
• Never run out of amazing content with Instagram Reposting.

Customer Reviews
Take control and get results
This is by far the easiest and most effective app in managing your social media presence. Let's face it- you have to be active for it to count and this app takes the headache away and puts time back in your life by managing your posts and also timing them for greatest interaction. The ROI is huge when you consider the time you get back and the analytics provided to understand the influence metrics- what posts work and which ones don't. Highly recommend and you will thank yourself once you take this app for a spin.
What a great tool.
This has taken my Twitter game to a new level. Wow. How did I not know about this app? Only discovered it because of its integration with Nuzzel.
Feature request: Whenever I am set to buffer something to twitter, either through the app extension or inside the app, it would be cool to see my upcoming buffer times in the lower half of the iPhone/iPad screen where there is unused, blank space. Don’t necessarily need to see what i’m buffering, just a visual of upcoming times and a marker of whether that slot is used or not.
Cut my social posting time by 75%
This app has made a huge difference in how much time I need to devote to social media posting for my business. I can load up posts for a week at a time in about an hour. Browser extensions make it super easy to schedule posts when I stumble on interesting content. The analytics help in surfacing posts that get good engagement so I can redistribute. Wish I had started using Buffer a long time ago.
