About Social Media Planner
Social Media Planner is a free, in-browser web utility tool. Generate a social media content plan with best posting times, content types, and weekly schedule. The page exposes a small surface — input, controls, output — so a first-time visitor can complete the job without reading documentation.
Social Media Planner works well as a bookmarked utility you reach for when you need it. The first visit shows you what the tool does; the second is when you realise it is a low-friction option for the task and worth keeping in your tab list.
Social Media Planner performs the transformation entirely inside the JavaScript runtime. Your file lives in the tab's memory while the engine works on it; the result lives in the tab's memory until the browser triggers the download. Both are released when the tab closes, the way every browser tab releases its memory.
Social Media Planner is implemented on top of standard browser APIs. Inputs are read from the file picker or drop zone, decoded in the browser, processed, and re-encoded into the output format. Files up to 0 MB are well within the comfort zone of any modern browser.
The architecture imposes only the limits the browser itself imposes. The published 0 MB ceiling is conservative; most modern devices comfortably handle inputs up to that size, and the cap exists so the tool degrades gracefully on phones and budget laptops rather than running out of memory.
Typical users of Social Media Planner include researchers gathering quick references, teachers building resource lists and community managers planning posts. The thread connecting all of them is the same: a focused web and productivity utility task that fits cleanly into a browser tab and benefits from a tool with sensible defaults and minimal setup.
The output handed back by Social Media Planner is the output file. If you would prefer to keep the result in the browser instead of downloading it, you can copy it from the result panel and paste it directly into another tab — useful when the next tool in your workflow expects pasted text rather than a file.
Workflow tip: Social Media Planner pairs well with Social Media Audit Checklist and Social Media Image Sizes. Other adjacent tools you may find useful are Hashtag Generator and Social Media Character Counter. Because every tool is a separate page, you can mix and match the steps that match your job. Bookmark the ones you reach for the most.
The transformation in Social Media Planner is deterministic — the same input plus the same options produces the same result every run. That predictability matters when the result has to match an upstream specification or be reproducible later.
Some context on why Social Media Planner exists in this form: modern File APIs, high-performance JavaScript engines, and well-maintained open-source libraries now make it possible to perform web and productivity utility work entirely in the browser. Social Media Planner is built on top of that capability, which is why a single page can host the full pipeline.
If you also use a command-line tool for social media planner, Social Media Planner is a convenient alternative for the times you are on a different machine or helping someone who is not comfortable in a terminal. The output is a standard file in the format documented above.
Pro tip: Social Media Planner works just as well in a private/incognito window as in a normal one, which is occasionally useful when you want zero browser-history footprint of the job. Another tip: if the tool ever feels slow, it is almost always because the browser tab is competing for CPU with another tab — pausing or closing the heavy ones gives the engine room to work.
For most failure modes, refreshing the page and re-running the job is enough — the engine has no persistent state to corrupt. If the same input fails twice in a row, the input itself is most likely the problem (a truncated file, an unexpected variant of the format, or a stream the engine does not recognise).
Social Media Planner is one of many single-purpose tools in the catalog. Each is built around the same single-page model. Use this one, close the tab, and come back the next time you need the same job done. None of the tools require prior knowledge of the others — each page is self-contained.
How it works
- 1Reach the Social Media Planner page in your browser to begin.
- 2Select the web utility file you want to process — drag-and-drop and the file picker both work.
- 3Pick any non-default settings you need. Most users leave the defaults alone for the first run and only revisit if the result needs tuning.
- 4Click to start the job. The engine (standard browser APIs) processes the input in the page; you can watch the progress indicator until it completes.
- 5Grab the output as soon as the run completes. You can also copy the result instead of downloading if the next tool in your workflow accepts pasted input.
- 6Re-run with different settings as often as you want. Each run produces a fresh output and the original file on disk is never modified.

FAQ
Are these the best posting times?
These are industry-average best times. Check your own analytics for your audience-specific optimal times.
How many posts per week?
Customize from 1-21 per week. Most platforms recommend 3-7 posts weekly for consistent growth.
Content type suggestions?
The planner suggests a mix of content types (photos, videos, stories, polls) for variety.
Can I plan for multiple platforms?
Yes — select "All platforms" to get a combined plan or choose individual platforms.
How far ahead?
Plan up to 12 weeks ahead. 4 weeks is a good starting point for monthly planning.
Private?
Yes — generated locally.
Are jobs run with Social Media Planner stored anywhere?
Favtoo keeps no copy of your file because Favtoo never receives your file. Social Media Planner runs entirely in your browser, the input is held only in your tab's memory, and closing the tab discards it. There is no opt-in cloud history, no "recent jobs" panel synced to an account, and no server-side retention to configure — the architecture simply has nowhere for your file to be stored.
Is Social Media Planner lossless?
Social Media Planner is built to preserve quality wherever the underlying web utility format allows it. Operations that are mathematically lossless (e.g. structural transformations, lossless re-encoding) round-trip with no perceptible change. Operations that involve a lossy codec inevitably introduce small artefacts at the byte level, but the defaults aim at the sweet spot where output looks or sounds the same to a normal viewer or listener while still being meaningfully smaller or faster than the input.
Which file formats does Social Media Planner accept?
The accepted formats are listed in the upload area on the tool itself. If your input is in a format that is not directly supported, convert it first using one of Favtoo's converter tools — every Favtoo converter outputs a file that is a clean input to the next tool in the chain.
Does Social Media Planner work with screen readers?
Social Media Planner uses native HTML controls wherever possible, which means keyboard navigation, focus rings, and screen-reader labels work the way the platform expects. The drop zone accepts files via the keyboard-accessible file picker as well as drag-and-drop, and result downloads use standard browser download flows. If you spot an accessibility gap, Favtoo treats it as a bug worth fixing.
Will Social Media Planner keep working in a year?
Social Media Planner is updated whenever the underlying engine releases an improvement or a bug fix. Because the tool is delivered as a static page, every visit fetches the latest version automatically — there is no "version" to manage on your end. If a particular release ever changes default behaviour, the change is documented on Favtoo's changelog so you can confirm what shifted.
Why does Social Media Planner feel slow on large inputs?
Most jobs finish in seconds. Speed scales with input size and with how many CPU cycles your browser tab has available — the engine runs in your browser, so it shares resources with whatever else you have open. For inputs near the 0 MB ceiling, expect anywhere from a few seconds to roughly a minute on a typical laptop. Closing other heavy tabs noticeably speeds things up.
What is the maximum file size for Social Media Planner?
Inputs are capped at 0 MB per file, which keeps memory usage stable across phones, tablets and older laptops. You can run Social Media Planner as often as you need; every run produces a full-quality result.
Can I trust the output of Social Media Planner for important work?
Social Media Planner is built on standard browser APIs, which is the same class of engine used by professional web and productivity utility pipelines. For deterministic operations, the output is byte-identical to what an equivalent CLI run would produce; for operations involving a codec or a model, the result is well within the range of what comparable tools generate. If you have a specific reference output you need to match, run a small test job first to confirm the configuration produces what you expect.
