Schedule First Comments on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, YouTube, LinkedIn, and TikTok
The First Comment is a powerful tool for sharing links ("link in first comment," "link in comment"), organizing hashtags, and adding context to your post. It's available across multiple platforms, such as Instagram ("Instagram first comment"), Facebook, Threads, YouTube, LinkedIn, and TikTok.
How To Add First Comment?
While creating a post, select one or more networks: Instagram, Facebook, Threads, YouTube, LinkedIn, and TikTok.
Add your content to the "First Comment" box.
Pro Tip: When cross-posting, customize your first comment per network. Select the network and update the content in the "First Comment" box.
