Ratings and reviews

I prefer using Buffer on desktop simply because I can do more on there than with this app (e.g. make threads), but I only have one hour on a library computer to do everything I want to do; I don't have my own computer. Poor feature parity with desktop severely hurts this app. Zero offline functionality makes it useless entirely, because I don't have a cellular plan nor Wi-Fi at home either, so instead of being able to schedule posts or save ideas, I have to keep a separate queue anyway.

Can't add my Instagram. - Yes, it's connected to a profile. - Yes, both accounts are connected to each other in the Accounts Center - Yes, I've allowed Buffer to have fun access needed - Yes, I followed Buffer's solution prompt to no avail, as everything they suggested was already done or enabled on my account I've tried on both the mobile app & computer browser but continue to receive same error message "Looks like we've hit a snag. Would you mind trying again?" Uninstall!

Video works 50% of the time so far. Very concerning. Works better than other schedulers, but I post a lot of video. No tutorial. Loss of a second star. Big learning curve with what this app calls a "draft" or in the "queue". Needs some tweaking and fine tuning by people that understand how apps with permissions for other apps, work. I can see the upside. 3 of 5. Can be 5 with very easy fixes.
