Notification Posting — A new way to safely publish Reddit posts with Postpone
In addition to Postpone's new mobile app, today we are also introducing our latest feature: Notification Posting.
Notification Posting is an innovative new way to build an audience on Reddit. It helps creators combine the power of Postpone's post creation, scheduling, engagement, and analytics features with the authenticity of native Reddit submissions.
Let's take a look at how it works!
What is Notification Posting?
Notification posting gives you the best of both worlds for Reddit content management.
It starts with creating your posts, finding the best time to post, and scheduling posts in Postpone.
Then, instead of automatically publishing your content, Postpone sends a notification to your mobile device when it's time to post. With just a few taps, you can complete the submission process through Reddit's native app.
See how you can submit a notification post in 30 seconds:
The Reddit mobile app will automatically pre-fill the subreddit, title, link, and text fields. If you're submitting an image or video, then Postpone will provide a way to quickly download the media to a new Postpone folder in your device's Photos app so you can attach it to your Reddit post.
Why use Notification Posting for Reddit?
Notification posting offers some great advantages for creators looking to succeed on Reddit:
Improved Engagement and Safety
Increased post engagement - More upvotes and views on your content.
Reduced risk of shadowbans or suspensions - Posting through Reddit's native app looks more natural and authentic.
Submit videos to any subreddit - Something that's only possible through Reddit's official mobile app.

Choose your preferred date and time for each subreddit.
Select "Notification" instead of "Automatic" as your posting method.
Schedule your post
That's it! When it's time to publish, you'll receive a notification on your device. Tap it to open the post in Postpone, copy any field you need, then open Reddit's mobile app to publish with just a few taps.
Remember to come back to the Postpone app afterward and mark your post as submitted so Postpone can track analytics for you.

Log into your account.
Enable notifications for Postpone in your device settings.
Keep your device nearby at scheduled posting times.
Why Notification Posting is Helpful
Social media platforms constantly evolve, and Reddit is no exception. Over the past few months, we've observed changes in how Reddit's algorithm handles content submission methods.
Reddit's ecosystem has gradually shifted to favor content posted through its native app or website, particularly for accounts with lower Contributor Quality Scores (CQS). When content is submitted through Reddit's official API (which Postpone uses), Reddit's algorithms may apply additional scrutiny that can lead to an increased risk of shadowban or reduced post engagement. This isn't unique to Postpone – it's a platform-wide trend affecting all Reddit scheduling tools.
While the majority of Reddit accounts have no issues publishing posts automatically with Postpone, we still want to make sure we offer tools to meet the needs of all creators.
That's why Postpone is the first Reddit scheduling platform to address this challenge head-on with Notification Posting. Rather than leaving you to choose between convenience or performance, we've created a solution that delivers both.
This new feature simply adds another powerful option to your Reddit strategy toolkit – use automatic posting when convenience is paramount, and switch to notification posting when maximum engagement and safety is your priority.
Level-Up Your Reddit Strategy with Postpone
Notification Posting is the ideal solution for content creators who want want to plan ahead with Postpone while maintaining the benefits of native posting.
With higher engagement rates, reduced risk of shadowbans, and the ability to post videos to any subreddit, this feature gives you a significant advantage in growing your Reddit audience.
