PostMyParty is no longer limited to only Facebook! πŸŽ‰
​
In addition to that, mobile users will now have a way to publish posts!
​
With our keyboard extension, we've provided a way to access all of your content stored within PostMyParty directly from your mobile device, and use that content in any other app or website you use.
​

For a comprehensive overview of ways this can be used for your business, check out our blog article!

Continue scrolling for the steps on how to use it πŸ‘‡

​
​Before getting started, you'll need to have the PostMyParty mobile app and keyboard extension installed to your device (Android/iOS).

    ​

    • Click the Keyboard icon.
      Depending on your device, this may be in the bottom right or bottom left of your screen.

How to use the Keyboard Extension to create a post

    ​

  3. For Photos/GIF/Videos:
    ​

    • Hold down on the image to copy to your clipboard.

      • For multi-picture posts, use the Copy Images button to copy all at once.
        ​

    • Use the app/website's upload option to attach what you had just copied.

      • For locations that don't use an upload option, simply paste what you had copied into the text field instead.
        ​

    • Tap the text of that post, and it will attach the included link.

      • For many apps, a picture preview of that link will display once published.
