Scheduling and Timing
Set up automated schedules for your workflows and learn about optimal timing for different types of Instagram actions.
Daily Schedules
Set workflows to run at specific times each day. Use the schedule builder to define start times, and ShadowPhone will handle the rest. Workflows can run multiple times per day with different configurations.
Time Zone Handling
All schedules are set in your local time zone. If you manage accounts targeting different time zones, set each workflow schedule according to the target audience's peak hours.
Optimal Posting Times
Based on our data across thousands of accounts: Weekday mornings (7-9 AM) and evenings (6-9 PM) see the highest engagement. Weekends have steadier engagement throughout the day. Adjust based on your niche and audience.
Randomization
ShadowPhone automatically adds random variance to your scheduled times (plus or minus 15 minutes by default). This prevents your account from performing actions at exactly the same time every day, which could look automated.
Queue Management
If multiple workflows are scheduled to run simultaneously, ShadowPhone queues them. Each phone can only run one workflow at a time. Prioritize your most important workflows by scheduling them first.
