My Phones — post from your own Android

Beta

Pair any Android device with Butter, then drive it from any browser tab you sign in from. Posts reels and stories from your queue, no cloud-phone credits required.

My Phones — post from your own Android in Butter v2.1
  • BYO Android + host agent — paired in under a minute
  • WebSocket relay lets you drive the phone from any browser
  • One IG account per phone profile, enforced by unique index
  • Mutual exclusion with GeeLark and IG API — no double-posts

TikTok and YouTube Shorts in the wizard

Beta

The Connect Account wizard now lists Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Posting is manual for this phase — Butter opens the platform app via deep link; after you post, paste the link or just mark it as posted, and auto-sync handles the rest.

TikTok and YouTube Shorts in the wizard in Butter v2.1
  • Connect Account wizard supports IG, TikTok, YouTube
  • Platform-aware deep links to the TikTok / YouTube app
  • Paste the post URL or just mark as posted — auto-sync does the rest
  • In beta, rolling out to selected accounts; YouTube is Shorts-only

Post Captions — 5 AI styles + 1 hand-written

New

Every video upload now generates up to 8 caption candidates across 5 AI styles — long, short, emoji, engagement, SEO. You can also assign one hand-written caption per account to keep brand voice consistent.

Post Captions — 5 AI styles + 1 hand-written in Butter v2.1
  • 5 AI styles per video: long, short, emoji, engagement, SEO
  • Plus 1 hand-written caption assignable per account
  • Per-account weight slider (0–100% per style) drives auto-selection
  • Best Performing Captions widget ranks by engagement rate

Account Status Check — reach-limit watcher

New

Butter now checks both your cloud-phone (GeeLark) and physical-phone (My Phones) accounts hourly for Instagram's reach-limit indicator, and automatically pauses posting when an account goes orange. A red / orange / green dot on every account card shows the current state at a glance.

  • Hourly RPA reads IG's Profile → Account Status → Limits page
  • Orange = posting auto-skips until the account recovers
  • Status log modal with screenshot history per account
  • Runs on both GeeLark and My Phones accounts — does not detect full bans

Autopilot picks the templates

Beta

Flip Autopilot on inside Repurposer Settings and Butter scores every eligible template against a combo of content-fit with your client's library, virality signals, and how the template's past output has performed — then leans into the ones that hit.

  • Content-fit scored against the client library (coverage × emotion)
  • Plus virality signals and past view performance per template
  • Pin or weight any template to give it a boost
  • Per-account toggle; adapts as you add content or new templates

Notes on every account card

New

Add free-form notes to any account and search across them from the /accounts list. Notes show as a mobile-friendly preview chip on the card itself — visible to your team, never to the end user.

  • Free-form text — no schema, no required fields
  • Searchable from the /accounts list
  • Preview chip on the card on mobile
  • Operator-only — never exposed to end users
Same price · No new tier

Six features land on your existing plan. No new tier, no add-on, no per-platform fee.
