Postpone supports two ways of submitting social media posts:

1. Automatic posts, which Postpone submits for you automatically.
2. Notification posts, where Postpone sends you a notification when it is time to post, so you can submit the post yourself.

In this article, we'll learn what Notification posting is and when you should use it.

What is notification posting?

Notification posting is Postpone's feature that alerts you when it's time to publish your content. Instead of auto-posting directly to each platform, you'll receive a notification on your device, prompting you to complete the posting process with just a few taps.

Why would I want to use notification posting?

With the notification mobile posting approach, you get all the powerful planning, optimization, organization, and analytics benefits of Postpone while maintaining the authenticity of native posting (for Reddit) and access to all platform features (for other platforms).

For Reddit specifically you can expect:

• Increased post engagement (upvotes and views).
• Reduced risk of shadowban or suspension.
• Submit videos to all subreddits, which is only possible on Reddit's official mobile app.

For other platforms, such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts, you can expect:

• Access to platform features not available to third party tools, such as adding links to Instagram Stories, music to TikTok videos, or certain editing features.

Plus you retain access to all these powerful Postpone features for growing an audience on social media:

• AI-Powered Content Creation: Generate post titles and content with our AI assistant.
• Strategic Planning Calendar: Visualize and organize your entire Reddit strategy.
• Content Library: Track exactly where your content has been shared.
• Best Time to Post in Subreddits: Leverage our data-driven best time to post recommendations for each subreddit.
• Fresh Links: Ensure you submit unique links on Reddit.
• Reddit Analytics: View which posts and content work best on Reddit, then double-down on the successful strategies.
• Subreddit Manager: Organize subreddits, set default subreddit post settings, and track your verification status.
• Redditor Analysis: Understand the strategies of successful Redditors.
• Subreddit Discovery: Find new relevant communities for your content.
• Reddit Inbox with Saved Replies: Efficiently manage conversations.
• Content Repost Protection: Avoid accidental duplicate posts.
• Subreddit Frequency Warnings: Prevent over-posting to subreddits.

How can I create posts that use notification posting

Setting up notification posting is simple:

1. Create your post in Postpone as you normally would.
2. Choose the date and time you would like the post to be submitted.
3. When selecting your posting method, choose "Notification" instead of "Automatic"
4. Schedule your post.

That's it! Postpone will handle the rest, alerting you when it's time to publish.

Where will I get notified?

Postpone can notify you in two places:

• Your iPhone or Android device.
• Your browser.

Make sure you:

• Have the latest version of the Postpone mobile app installed.
• Log into your account in the Postpone mobile app.
• Enable notifications for the Postpone app in your device settings.
• Keep your device nearby at scheduled posting times.

Tapping on the notification will open the post in Postpone. From here, you can copy any field, open the post in the platform's mobile app, and publish with just a few steps.
