Add interactive stickers to scheduled Stories
Stickstories keeps interactive stickers on scheduled Stories because it publishes from its own servers instead of Instagram official API, which does not allow partners to post Stories containing stickers, links or music. You place link, poll, quiz, question, countdown, slider, mention, hashtag and location stickers in the editor, schedule the Story, and it goes live with all of them still tappable. No notification reaches your phone and no step is left for you to finish by hand.
Interactive stickers boost reach, but most tools strip them when scheduling. Stickstories keeps native stickers and auto-posts the Story for you.
All the native stickers
Link, poll, quiz, question, countdown, slider, mention, hashtag and location stickers, placed exactly where you want.
They survive scheduling
The stickers stay interactive in the published Story, so your audience can vote, tap and swipe as usual.
Schedule once, post automatically
Design the Story, drop it on the calendar and let it go live on its own.
The nine stickers, and what each one is for
Link sends traffic somewhere, which is the one most tools cannot schedule. Poll and slider ask a closed question and give you a number. Quiz tests knowledge with a right answer. Question opens a free-text box, useful for Q&A rounds. Countdown builds anticipation towards a launch and lets people set a reminder. Mention credits another account and can be reshared by them. Hashtag and location put the Story into discovery surfaces beyond your own followers.
Why other schedulers strip them
The official Instagram Content Publishing API cannot publish Stories with stickers, links, music or effects. A tool built strictly on top of it has two options: publish a plain image, or upload the media and send you a notification to add the stickers yourself in the app. Both are common, and both mean the interactive part of the Story depends on you being awake and holding your phone.
What it changes for reach
Interaction is a ranking signal inside Stories: replies, votes and taps tell Instagram the Story is worth showing to more of your audience. A scheduled Story with a poll therefore behaves differently from the same Story published flat. If you schedule a week of content and the stickers get dropped, you keep the cadence but lose the mechanism that makes the cadence worth it.

Frequently asked questions
Can I schedule an Instagram Story with a link sticker?
Yes. Stickstories publishes from its own servers, so the link sticker is placed in the editor and is live and tappable the moment the Story publishes.
Which stickers survive scheduling?
Link, poll, quiz, question, countdown, slider, mention, hashtag and location. They all stay interactive in the published Story.
Why do other tools ask me to add the stickers manually?
Because they publish through Instagram official API, which does not support Stories with stickers or links. They upload the media and notify you to finish the Story in the app.
Do I get the poll results as usual?
Yes. The Story is a normal native Story, so votes, replies and sticker insights appear in Instagram exactly as they would if you had posted it by hand.
Can I put several stickers on the same Story?
Yes, and you position each one where you want it on the 1080x1920 canvas. Keep them out of the top and bottom 250 pixels, where Instagram interface sits.
Does this work on multiple accounts?
Yes. Every connected account schedules Stories with stickers the same way, priced from 9.90 EUR per account per month.
