FAQ

Questions About Instagram

Does my Instagram account need to be a business account?

For automatic publishing, comments and insights, yes: a business or creator account. Switching is free in Instagram's settings. Personal accounts can still use Rysal with reminders.

Do I need a Facebook Page?

No. You can connect a professional Instagram account directly with your Instagram login.

Can Rysal post Reels with music?

Instagram does not let apps add music, so a Reel with a song is sent to you as a reminder with the video and caption ready, and you add the song in the app.

How many posts can I schedule?

As many as you like. Instagram limits how many posts an app may publish for one account per day, and Rysal keeps you under it.

Can I schedule Stories?

Yes. Photo and video Stories publish automatically. Stories with link stickers, polls or text added in Instagram come to you as reminders.

Why was my carousel cropped?

Instagram crops every item in a carousel to the shape of the first one. The preview in the composer shows the crop before you schedule.
