VoiceOver user of Buffer

Normally, I would have given this a 5 star but as a voice over user, not all the buttons are described with labels.Also, wish you could change between the business/professional channels and the personal channels without having to upgrade and pay for this option.Maybe someday... Haha! Thanks for making this 95% accessible to the visually impaired, it's a great start!

Love love love

I absolutely love this app! Buffer has helped me maintain my social media page for my business!

Still need the original apps PLUS this. Was looking to stay active but stay away from the feeds.

Was looking for a way to stay active on my socials while stepping away IRL wit my team, and we are having so many issues that it’s just easier and more efficient to just upload directly app to app! was pressured by ads and paid for a subscription and feel like we was robbed! Of my time and money! Plans failed.

A very good accessible alternative to Facebook Business suite for Screen Reader users

Not only is this a great app to help manage your socials, plan ideas and turn them into posts and increase engagement, it’s a very good accessible alternative to other apps which lack such ease of access. Please can we have the option to switch on or off the new focus screen though when composing? I get the significance for users, however it gets in my way and actually has led to content being updated for a time that I didn’t intend from a screen reader user perspective. Other than that keep up the great work.
