The client accepted the post. It is ready to be scheduled.
SOCIAL MEDIA APPROVAL SOFTWARE
Social media approval software for the step before publishing
For agencies and freelance social media managers, ApprovePost is the approval step between finished posts and publishing: share posts and captions on one private link, collect an explicit decision per post, and publish only what the client approved.

Real client review
Approve the whole month before anything reaches your scheduler.
THE SHORT ANSWER
Social media approval software is the gate that content passes through before publishing. It is the step where a client or stakeholder gives an explicit go-ahead. ApprovePost is that gate. It does not schedule, auto-post, or replace your social media management platform. It makes sure only approved content reaches it.
THE PROBLEM
The missing step between “drafted” and “published.”
Most scheduling tools are built for publishing, not for approval. The result is the same awkward loop: you send a screenshot in a chat, the client replies with “looks good but change X,” someone schedules the wrong version, and the caption you actually published never got an explicit yes.
A social media approval workflow closes that gap without adding another platform to manage. Content is produced, approved, and then published. Each job has its own tool, and the approval step is handled separately.
- Posts are reviewed with their captions, so decisions cover the whole post, not just an image.
- Status is explicit: approved, changes requested, or awaiting review.
- Only approved content moves on to the scheduler.
A clear division of work
Planning and scheduling live in your existing calendar or scheduler. Content production lives in your design tools. Client approval happens in ApprovePost. Publishing stays in your scheduler. ApprovePost covers the third stage and only the third stage.
THE APPROVAL STEP
Approve a batch of posts before they go live.
Send a whole month of content in one review, and let the client approve it in one sitting.
Upload
Add the finished posts, captions, and videos for one client into a review.
Share
Send one private review link. No client account, no login.
Review
The client walks through each post with its caption, checking the status as they go.
Fix
Change requests come back with feedback attached to the specific post.
Approve
Revise and resubmit, collect approval, then publish the approved set from your scheduler.
CLEAR STATUSES
Know exactly where every post stands.
The client left feedback and the post returns to revision.
Sent but unanswered, or a new version waiting for re-approval.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Everything the approval step needs.
Batched client reviews
Group posts for one client into a single review, up to 10 posts on Free and 100 on Pro. No per-post file sharing.
Media + caption together
Images, MP4 videos, captions, and a social network frame - Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, Reddit, or Telegram - travel together, so approval covers the whole post as it will be seen.
Private review links
One private link per review. It shares the review, not the account, so clients never sign up.
Change requests with feedback
Requesting changes requires written feedback, so revision notes arrive ready to hand to the designer.
Versioned revisions
Edit captions or upload new media versions, resubmit, and keep the review history for the record.
Telegram notifications (Pro)
Get notified the moment a client starts reviewing, approves, or requests changes on a post.
REALISTIC EXAMPLE
A weekly approval gate for a retainer client.
A freelance social media manager prepares five posts for a coffee brand, everything captioned and formatted, approved in a single review each week.
On Monday they create a review, upload the five posts, and send the link. The client opens it over lunch, approves four, and requests changes on the reel with “swap the intro shot for the pour-over close-up.” The manager replaces the video, resubmits, and the client approves it by Tuesday.
The manager then schedules all five posts in the client's usual scheduler, knowing exactly what was approved and when. No Monday-morning guessing about which version of a Reel made it to the queue.
What the workflow protects against
- Publishing a caption the client never saw.
- Scheduling an old version because chat history was unclear.
- Client feedback landing in five different apps.
- Endless “I thought you said that was approved” moments with the client.
