Free - Facebook Post planner - autoposting on facebook pages and walls

    Hy guys, I developed an app for facebook where you can plan ahead what you want to post, at any specific time.

    - it has multi-picture upload, so you can upload several pictures at once to post on your pages or walls.
    - you can schedule campaigns for different pages or even your wall.
    - it does not post anything else except what you post, it will never autopost something other than the content that you uploaded
    - currently it's working quite well, but it's in beta, that means you all get to test it for free with full functionality, though it might still have some bugs around(just let me know if you find any and I'll take care of them).

    If you want to try it out, here's the link : https://apps.facebook.com/extremeplanners/ Hope you all like it !

    Let me know what you think of it, what you think should be improved or added, or anything else related to the app

    you can see more about it and some screenshots on our page : http://www.facebookplanner.com/

    about the fb terms...i know it's annoying, facebook made it so you can't ask for permission for all at once, you need to ask for them separately, however the app can't post in your name unless you allow it to.

    It doesn't look that good and very long process to start get to settings and settings doesn't appear even after completing the process.
    your app asks complete access to persons profile.
    your app doesn't work after completing whole process, people will start thinking its some kind of scam. as now a days many apps take access of your account and start spamming all over facebook.
    So please make your app properly or people will think it as spambot. :p

    are you joking, did you even try the app? It's one click to get to setting, and setting appears and works fine, already around 100 people are using it and successfully posting on their pages each day. it's really no scam and I have no intention of spamming, if I would do that people would just delete the app and the posts it did and bad reputation would follow, why would i put all the effort in building this just to spam 1-2 days till people would catch on!?

    if you really tried the app and not just commented with no reason, just tell me exactly where you had problems and i will check into it, though as i said it's working good for a lot of people, including several of my accounts on which i have been testing it for quite some time.

    While i wouldn't go as far to say this poster is a scam i also wasn't to impressed with it either. particularly the "Schedule" option is far to complex for most users wouldn't know what to input, i configured it and put my message, link and picture but when i got to the Scheduler i had know idea what GMT to put it on, what time number to set it too etc etc ...its just sitting their right now doing nothing as i inputted +1 and 00 as i had know idea what settings i needed to enter there...i mean wtf! dude, seriously you need to simplify that option abit

    Can i suggest you just add "how many times a day to run campaign1" or "run campaign1 every 10 minutes, or every 60 minutes etc etc

    much easier to understand for the end user that way

    maybe add abit of color to the app, i was depressed using it lol seriously ..very dull and boring to look at ..while its the functionality that's most important in any application you still need to enjoy what you're doing specially if internet social marketing is your full time job ...just make it look a little nicer, just my opinion

    and while this facebook poster is in demo mode and we can not add more than 4 groups to post to, i hope in the full version you are going to have a "Add all groups at once" option ..otherwise that could get abit annoying having to add 1 group at a time each and every time


    anyway just abit of constructive criticism

    btw how much will the full version be?

    I want the minute of my life back that I just watched a worthless cartoon video telling me how it will save me time and increase my page exposure.

    Thought I would see a video how how it would, not some idiot cartoon smiley face jumping up and down telling me that it would.

    worthless.

    hello jacksparrow, thank you for your comment.
    About the gtm, there is a ? near the timezone, if you hover it it tells you that if you go to http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=179 you can enter you exact city and you get the gtm timezone... i understand this may take 20 seconds extra but it's something you set once and forget about it, and gtm is more international than other time formats.. that is the only thing you need to configure about the timezone.
    below there are the days of the week, if you click any it tells it to post or not to post on those days, and below you can choose the hours and minute at which to post, you choose first an hour, then a minute, as i understood you chose to post at 1:00 am :)
    it's quite fast if you get used to it, though not that explicit at first, will work on that.
    this way you get a lot more control of when to post, for example you can post in the morning when everyone is up and checking their fb account for news and updates, and at noon when people have a coffe break or at night when everybody's at home again checking their fb accounts... instead of just telling it to post randomly and getting less interaction with your page.

    about the color....i get what you mean :) it's in beta though, i concentrated more on the usability than on the design, will work on that too.

    about the groups that is a good idea, will do that, thanks.

    as for the price, not sure yet, depends on how much we'll add till then :)

    Well that's just the promotional clip, if you would have installed the app and used it, in that minute you would have had a few posts already scheduled. The main idea is that you can schedule your posts ahead, and constant updates at constant and well picked times of the day will get you the increase exposure that you need, just try the app and usually, as a side note, if you want something to work, you'll have to dedicate more than a minute to it....just my 2c

    you should make a video showing what it does, instead of wasting your time trying to tell ppl how easy it is.

    probably the best advice you've received, all year.

    Huge update - a lot of new features added :

    - added the possibility of repeating posts, you made a post that will repeat each day or every other day - this is useful for people promoting something
    - added the possibility of automatically posting a message and a link with each post you make, set the SEO option and the percentage of posts you want will have that as a signature
    - added the possibility of multi uploading text
    - added the possibility of checking the pictures for uniqueness, so you don't double-post the same thing
    - added the possibilty of using the file name of the picture as the message, so if you prepare the pictures in advance all you need to do is upload them and your future posts are done

    Hope you're all enjoying the new stuff and using it to it's max. More features will be added soon so stay tuned :)

    As usual, all bugs and suggestions are welcome, just let me know !
