The short answer
If you only need to schedule a few Instagram photos or Reels, use Instagram's own scheduler or Meta Business Suite: both are free. quso.ai's Instagram post scheduler is worth paying for when you also turn long videos into Reels and post to more than Meta's apps. It clips and captions the video, then schedules it to Instagram and 6 other platforms on Essential ($39/month) or Growth ($49/month). Its free plan publishes to TikTok only.
