Ready Social supports publishing Instagram Posts, Reels, and Stories for both Personal and Professional accounts. However, due to Instagram API limitations, there are differences in how content is published based on account type. Users can access direct scheduling for Posts, Reels, and Stories on professional profiles, i.e., Business and Creator. But users can also use mobile reminders to publish Reels and Stories on these accounts. Below, you will find detailed instructions on how to manage your Instagram Posts, Reels, and Stories.
