Add a GIF
We’ve teamed up with Giphy to bring GIFs right into your composer, making it easier to find them and dangerously abuse them. Search instantly for a GIF that expresses your brand, without leaving the platform, directly in Planable.
Add a URL link
If you're looking to add a link, just copy & paste it when creating a post. Afterward, you can delete it for Facebook & LinkedIn posts. If you want to add a URL link for Twitter you'll have to keep the link in the post.
Add a label
You can organize your posts with labels. With our labels, you can categorize your posts in a breeze. A single post can have multiple labels and can be filtered by whatever strikes your fancy – sales, product updates, promotion, you name it! You can add one or multiple labels in one post.
Add time & date
By clicking on the clock in the left bottom corner you can select a time & date to schedule your post. Attention, your post won't be published unless you click the schedule button. All the posts created in Planable are initially saved as a draft.
Add an emoji 😍
We know emojis make your social media fun and more engaging. You can add easily all kinds of emojis in a couple of clicks – type it, find your favorite one, search by keyword, or select by category. We even have codes for the more advanced emoji lovers (check the cheat sheet here). Awesome, huh?
