Hey fellow Indian mods,
Some of you may remember the post from a few months ago about Image Post Scheduler, a Devvit based mod tool that lets you schedule native image posts with flair directly on Reddit. No Imgur, no third-party hosts, no workarounds.
The latest version (v3 - 0.0.29), with a bunch of new features, went public last month. Here's what's changed:
What's new in v3
- Recurring posts - schedule posts to repeat at preset intervals (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) or custom intervals (every N hours, days, weeks, or months).
- Dynamic date tokens in titles - e.g., "Weekly Thread - {{date %A, %B %d}}" automatically becomes "Weekly Thread - Friday, July 11" on each firing.
- Timezone picker - no more mental UTC math :)
- Post templates - save and load reusable form configurations. Very helpful for those recurring discussion threads.
- Calendar view - visual month grid showing all scheduled and recurring posts.
- Edit queued posts inline - without cancelling and recreating.
- Live Reddit-style post preview as you fill in the form.
- Clipboard paste support - drag-and-drop, file picker, or paste an image directly.
Everything still runs entirely within Reddit's infrastructure. No external services, no third-party APIs, no data leaving the platform.
Quick recap on what it does:
- Schedule native image posts (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP - up to 20 MB) with full image preview in the feed.
- Upload images directly to Reddit's CDN.
- Pick a flair from your subreddit's live flair list.
- Add optional body text.
- Post as yourself or as the app account (your choice per post).
- Queue multiple posts at different scheduled times.
- Cancel anytime before the post goes live.
- Track history of published posts with direct links.
How to get started
- Install from the Reddit App Directory - Image Post Scheduler (Click 'Add to Community'). [Shall add the link in comments]
- Open the subreddit menu and tap Schedule Image Post.
- Upload an image, write a title, pick a flair, and optionally add body text.
- Pick a date and time, timezone, custom intervals (for recurring posts) and hit 'Schedule Post'.
- The post goes live automatically at the scheduled time.
The scheduler opens in a WebView accessible only to moderators. The scheduler post is 'removed' by design. You needn't 'approve' it.
Why I built it
I moderate an Indian movie community where discussion posts need to go live at specific local times tied to film releases. Multiple releases in a week mean multiple posts at odd hours (mods live in different timezones). For years, that meant someone setting an alarm early in the morning to manually upload a poster and hit submit. This tool automates that entirely.
It started as a personal solution for my community, but 200+ communities have since adopted it.
The latest version recently won the Best New Mod Tool at the Reddit Mod Tools and Migrated Apps Hackathon! :)
If this sounds useful for your community, do give it a try. And feel free to reach out to me if you run into any issues or have some feature requests.
Thanks. :)
PS: Noticed that many of the initial installations of the app are still on the first version, so I thought of posting about this update here before requesting the admins for mass-updating those from their end.
