Happy New Year!

The Loomly Team wishes you all the best for 2018: success at work, good times with your loved ones, and a strong health to enjoy it all!

2018 is going to be an important year for Loomly, full of improvements and surprises, which we hope you will all enjoy.

Kicking things off on the right foot, we are happy to bring you a brand-new feature today: the Instagram Grid Preview.

As you may guess from its name, this update allows you to preview your Instagram posts in grid format, i.e. in the context of your other Instagram posts:

By default, the post you are previewing will appear at the top left of your grid, as the last published post on your Instagram account.

By toggling the SHOW FUTURE LOOMLY POSTS switch, you can also preview a post taking into consideration your upcoming posts already scheduled with Loomly:

The Instagram Grid Preview is available from the Post View, for all Loomly users, in all calendars linked to an Instagram account.

As always, this is a feature inspired by your immensely useful feedback and we hope it will live up to your expectations.

Thank you so much for your incredible support in 2017: we are proud to keep building — and improving — Loomly for you in 2018.

We’ve been a little more quiet than usual lately, as we have been working on some big surprises for you all, the first of which is this major update, bringing a brand-new Content Library to your favorite social media tool.

You can access your Content Library from both the List View & the Calendar View via the Library icon in your Toolbar.

Inside your Content Library, you can:

• Upload photos & videos to be used later when creating new posts.
• Edit new and existing files metadata, for instance renaming assets per your internal conventions.
• Delete assets you no longer need.
• Apply changes to multiple files with bulk actions.

Of course, you can select any file — and even multiple files — in your Content Library and create a post from there:

Conversely, you can access your Content Library from Post Builder and simply select a file — or multiple files — on the fly when creating a new post:

Oh, and one more thing: all the files you have ever used in all of your Loomly posts since Day 1 have automatically been saved into your Content Library, ready to use again.

This brand-new Content Library is already available to all Loomly users: check it out now!

Once again, this feature was inspired by your amazing feedback and developed thanks to your outstanding support: thank you so much to you all.

We are immensely grateful to be able to build Loomly for you every day and we are happy to report that we have some pretty sweet surprises coming your way real soon: stay tuned.

Loomly is a social media content management system for teams and individuals alike: start your 15-day free trial here.

On Tuesday, Twitter officially rolled out the 280-character limit to all users: as of today, you can publish tweets with 280 characters via Loomly as well.

Besides this increased character limit, your post creation process remains exactly the same in Post Builder:

• If you want to publish a post to multiple channels, including Twitter, define generic content first.

• Fine-tune your content for each channel, making sure that your Twitter copy is 280-character long (or less).

• Links & media respectively count as 23 characters and 0 characters against this limit.

• As announced yesterday, you can include images up to 5MB and videos up to 200MB and 5 minutes in your tweets.

One little thing we have improved along the way is post preview for tweets including a YouTube video, which now show up in Loomly (and, of course, get published to Twitter) with a video Twitter card:

That’s it for today — a quick update letting you publish 280-character tweets and the ability to include YouTube Twitter Cards in your posts — until we bring something much bigger to you in the upcoming weeks: stay tuned!

As always, thank you so much for your support: you are the best users we could dream of.

The Loomly Team.

Loomly is a visual social media planning tool that lets you preview your tweets before you hit publish: start your 15-day free trial now.

Loomly now allows you to upload larger media assets to your posts from Post Builder:

• Up to 10MB for photos on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Google+ & LinkedIn — and 5MB on Twitter.

• Up to 200MB and 5 minutes for videos (although we do recommend videos less than 30MB and shorter than 2 minutes for an optimal experience).

This update is already available to all Loomly users: login and create a new post now.

Along with faster upload and GIF to MP4 conversion, the increased limits above are in fact the tip of the iceberg…

We have been working on a brand-new architecture, which is the foundation for two two very nice new media-related features, coming by the end of the year.

We can’t wait to share these exciting updates with you: stay tuned!

As always, thank you so much for your incredible feedback and your continuous help: it’s an honor for our team to get up every morning and build Loomly for such an amazing community of users.

You are truly the best.

Loomly is a social media content management system that lets you plan, create and publish content to your accounts: start your 15-day free trial now.

Sometimes, a seemingly small feature can make a surprisingly big difference… that’s the kind of update we tend to think we are announcing today: Loomly now allows you to publish animated GIFs to Facebook & Instagram.

So far, you were able to upload animated GIF files to Loomly but these were not accepted by the Facebook (Page) & Instagram APIs: you could either publish these “as is” and they would end up as non-animated on your social accounts, or upload MP4 files instead, specifically for these two platforms, which also implied some kind of manual conversion on your end.

Now, Loomly will do the heavy lifting for you: just upload an animated GIF to Post Builder and, if you selected either Facebook or Instagram as channels for your post, then your file will automatically get converted to MP4, and get published as a video.

Note: on all other channels, namely Twitter, Pinterest, Google+ & LinkedIn, your original animated GIF file will get published as expected.

Then, you may ask: what about the famous 3-second minimum duration for videos on Instagram?

Well, if the MP4 video resulting from the conversion of your animated GIF is shorter than that threshold, then Loomly will automatically loop it for you until the 3-second requirement is met.

In other words: you can now focus on finding awesome animated GIFs your audience will love, and Loomly will take care of the rest for you.

As always, this is a feature inspired by your feedback: thank you so much for your amazing support and your incredible enthusiasm.

(A lot) more is coming: stay tuned!

Loomly is a social media calendar tool that helps you create better content for your audience: start your 15-day free trial now.

Today, we are introducing not one, not two, but three new features in Loomly… and something tells us you should enjoy these new features! Read on.

Loom.ly URL Shortener

Until now, if you wanted to include a nicely formatted link in a post, you had to use a third-party tool to shorten it and then paste it in Loomly: these days are over! Post Builder now provides you with a built-in URL shortener that converts any link you input into a beautiful, short loom.ly link.

Mobile Post Builder

The Loomly mobile apps (iOS & Android), launched last month, are already getting their own significant update: Mobile Post Builder now allows you to create & edit posts on the go, from your smartphone. It’s the Loomly experience you all know and like — including Post Ideas, Generic + Fine-Tuning Content & Post Optimization — right in the palm of your hand.

Important Note: make sure to download the latest version of Loomly from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store to get access to Mobile Post Builder.

Post Labels

Last but not least, a simple yet super useful feature inspired by you: Post Labels let you tag posts in Post Builder and identify at a glance throughout Loomly what campaign or category they belong to. For instance, you can create labels for specific campaigns or types of posts, such as blog posts, sponsored posts, product posts, etc. Of course, you can also filter posts by labels in the List View & Calendar View.

Login to Loomly and check out these three new features now!

Oh, and we have two pretty major updates coming up in the next few weeks: the version 2.0 of an existing feature, and a surprise, brand-new feature we have been cooking for a while now that will take your Loomly experience to a new level. Stay tuned!

As always, a big thank you to all of you for your amazing feedback and your incredible enthusiasm: we are grateful every single day to be able to build Loomly for you.

The Loomly Team.

Loomly is a super simple social media calendar that helps you create better content for your audience: start your 15-day free trial here.

Today, we are very happy to announce a significant update, building on one of the core, unique features of Loomly: Post Ideas.

To be more specific, Loomly will now suggest you four types of ideas :

• Twitter Trends: trending topics from Twitter in your location.

• RSS feeds: RSS items from your own custom selection of content feeds.

• Loomly Inspiration: recurring, broad ideas based on best practices & Internet codes.

• Loomly Idea: events, holidays & celebrations happening on specific dates.

Post Ideas are now presented in a new list-style interface in Post Builder:

Post Ideas are also now actionable right from your Dashboard, where you can simply select an idea and a calendar and jump to Post Builder to create a post from that idea:

You can set your Post Ideas preferences in a new dedicated tab in your calendar Settings page:

• To activate Twitter Trends, you will need to select which location you would like Loomly to pull trends from and present as ideas:

• You can leverage RSS Feeds in one of two ways, either generating ideas from RSS entries with the RSS Post Ideas option…

• … or automatically generate Draft posts for all new RSS entries with the Assistive option:

Upgraded Post Ideas are already available to all Loomly users: login & check them out now!

We have even more of these exciting updates coming your way in the near future… stay tuned.

As always, we would like to thank you all for making Loomly possible with your extraordinary support, feedback & kind words: you are simply incredible!

Today, we are particularly happy to announce a major update, probably one of the largest projects we have been working on since the inception of our platform: the all-new Loomly mobile app!

The Loomly mobile app is available right now to all Loomly users:

• Loomly for iOS: download here from the App Store.

• Loomly Android: download there from the Google Play Store.

Note: you will need an existing Loomly web account to login to the Loomly mobile app, both on iOS & Android. If you do not have a Loomly account yet, simply create a new one here.

This very first version of the Loomly mobile app allows you to:

• Access all calendars & posts created from Loomly.com.

• Update the state of posts, assign posts to a collaborator & comment on posts

• Receive push notifications triggered by all interactions inside Loomly.

• Publish to Instagram in a simple two-step process.

If you have a smart watch mirroring notifications from you smartphone, you will receive Loomly push notifications in there, too!

Post creation and edit features are currently in development and will be available soon via an upcoming update.

In the meantime,  and as you probably know by now, your questions and suggestions are truly appreciated: if you would like to let us know how we can make the Loomly mobile app better, please feel free to reach out to us at contact@loomly.com.

In any case, and as always, we want to thank you all immensely for sharing your feedback with our team and guiding us in the development of Loomly as a multi-platform solution: you are simply the finest community of users we could ever dream of.

Last but not least, a special thanks goes to Ari, our Lead Software Engineer on this project, who has done a remarkable job building both apps from the ground up in record time for you all.

Sincerely,

The Loomly Team.

Loomly is a simple social media calendar now available as a web and mobile (iOS & Android) application: start your 15-day free trial now.

Today, we are happy to announce a significant Loomly update we have been working on for a while now: introducing your brand new notifications system.

The goal of this update is to make notifications more exhaustive, more clear and more actionnable.

In particular, this new notifications system includes 5 key features:

• On The Radar widget: in lieu of your former Today’s Posts widget, you will now find a new On The Radar widget, letting you see at a glance all your posts, from all your calendars (with filtering options), planned for today — with the ability to look at posts up to one week in the past as well as one week in the future — and identify quickly which ones are good to go, and which ones require your attention.

• Post Overview widget: replacing the old Notifications widget, the new Post Overview widget gives you a summary of how many posts overall (i.e. in all your calendars) you have in each state — Draft, Pending Approval, Requires Edit, Approved, Scheduled, Published, Failed & Passed — letting you know where you need to focus your efforts. You can filter posts by Assignee, to see exactly who needs to do what in your team.

• Comments widget: previously included in the Notifications widget, comments have now been extracted into their own Comments widget, which lets you deal with comments just like you would deal with emails, marking them as read / unread as you go. Here again, you can filter comments by Collaborators: that’s particularly useful when you are looking for a particular comment.

• Comments notifications: in addition, you can now receive notifications for all comments, and not only those mentioning you personally. This option is disabled by default and you can enable it from the Notifications tab of your Account.

• “Everybody” notifications: last but not least, when you assign a post to “Everybody”, all collaborators in your calendar can now receive a notification.

This new notifications system is already available to all Loomly user: log in to your account and check it out!

As always, we have only been able to design this major update thanks to your amazing feedback and we hope you will enjoy your new notifications system, and most importantly, that it will help you (and your team) get even more productive.

Thank you so much for everything: you are the best community we could dream of.
