Schedule Instagram Stories automatically
Yes, you can schedule Instagram Stories and have them publish on their own. With Stickstories you build the Story in a desktop editor at 1080x1920, drop it on a calendar and our servers publish it at the scheduled time with its interactive stickers and its music intact. You do not receive a notification and you do not need your phone on. It costs 9.90 EUR per Instagram account per month, with a 7-day free trial and no credit card.
Stop posting Stories by hand. Design them on desktop, drop them on a calendar and let Stickstories publish them for you — with real auto-posting and no phone notifications.
Plan a week of Stories in minutes
Build multi-slide Stories with text, images, video, GIFs and native interactive stickers, then schedule each one at the best time on a visual calendar.
Real auto-posting, no notifications
Your Stories go live on their own. No "tap to share" reminders, no manual steps, no babysitting your phone.
Built for creators and agencies
Connect several Instagram accounts and manage all of their Stories from one dashboard, with volume pricing as you grow.
What a scheduled Story keeps and what it does not
The stickers you place in the editor survive into the published Story: link, poll, quiz, question, countdown, slider, mention, hashtag and location. Music works the same way, from the Instagram catalogue or from your own file. What you cannot schedule are things that only exist inside the Instagram app at the moment of posting, such as camera effects and filters applied live.
The honest caveat about automation
Publishing Stories with native stickers means automating Instagram rather than calling a documented endpoint, because the official API will not carry link stickers, polls or music. We follow good practice to keep accounts safe, but no tool in this category can promise a 100% success rate. Moderate, human-looking use is the sensible approach.
How it works, step by step
- Connect your Instagram account Add the accounts you manage to the dashboard. You can connect as many as you need, and the price per account drops from 11 accounts onwards.
- Build the Story on your computer Use the 1080x1920 editor to add images, video, text, GIFs and native interactive stickers. Multi-slide Stories are built as a single sequence.
- Add music if you want it Pick a track from the Instagram catalogue or upload your own audio, slide by slide.
- Place it on the calendar Choose the day and time. You can lay out a whole week in one sitting and see it all at a glance.
- Let it publish itself At the scheduled time our servers publish the Story with everything inside. No notification, no manual step, nothing to finish on your phone.

Frequently asked questions
Does Instagram let you schedule Stories?
Instagram itself has no built-in Story scheduler for third parties beyond limited options in professional tools, and its official API refuses to publish Stories that carry link stickers, polls or music. That is the gap Stickstories fills: it publishes those Stories complete, from its own servers.
Does it really post, or does it just send me a reminder?
It really posts. The Story goes live on its own at the scheduled time. There is no "tap to share" notification to act on, which is the model most schedulers use for Stories with stickers.
Do I need my phone or my browser open?
No. Once the Story is scheduled, publishing runs on Stickstories servers. You can close the browser, shut down your computer and leave your phone off, and the Story still goes out.
How much does it cost to schedule Instagram Stories?
9.90 EUR per Instagram account per month, dropping to 8.90 EUR per account from 11 accounts and 7.90 EUR from 26. There is no cap on how many Stories you schedule, a 7-day free trial with one account and no credit card required.
Can I schedule Stories for several accounts at once?
Yes. Every connected account has its own calendar in the same dashboard, which is the normal setup for community managers and agencies handling client accounts.
Can I edit or cancel a Story after scheduling it?
Yes, at any point before it publishes. Open it from the calendar, change it or delete it. Once published, it lives on Instagram like any other Story and follows the usual 24-hour lifecycle.
