How to schedule a thread on X
(the one job X still won't do)

X's own composer only knows how to post right now — there's still no native way to queue up a full thread for later. Here's what people actually use instead, compared honestly.

There's no "schedule" button in X's own composer

Open X, write a thread, and your only options are "Post" or "Post all" — right now. To pick a future time, X requires you to go through a separate paid tool of some kind. Threads also aren't a formatting throwaway: Buffer's own experiment found threads get 63% more impressions and 54% more engagement than single-tweet links, so the ritual of writing a batch of them and shipping them on a schedule is worth getting right.

Three ways people actually schedule X threads today

Every column here answers honestly, including the ones Feedjot doesn't win.

Comparison of X thread scheduling options
  Native X / X Premium+ Typefully Hypefury Feedjot
Schedule a full thread No — even on Premium+ Yes Yes Yes
Price $40/mo for X Pro (ex-TweetDeck), and it still doesn't schedule threads Paid tiers starting under $20/mo, scaling toward $100/mo for team/agency plans From about $6/mo for one platform, $19/mo for all of them $13/mo flat, 100 posts/month
Posture Power-tool paywall 5-platform growth suite Recycling & engagement-automation toolkit Single job, done reliably
Evergreen recycling No Not publicly documented Yes — it's their core feature Yes — without the engagement-farming automation
Drafts & data exportable, no lock-in N/A — no scheduling drafts to hold Not the focus Not the focus Yes — 1-click GDPR export & delete, built in
Auto-retweets, autoplugs, reply-bait No Some automation add-ons Yes, by design No — deliberately
Platforms X only 5 (X, LinkedIn, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon) Multi-platform 2 — X & LinkedIn

On “Platforms”: Feedjot posts to X and LinkedIn — not five or six. Need Bluesky, Threads, or Mastodon too? Typefully's breadth wins outright. Want two platforms done well, without carrying the rest of a growth suite you'll never touch? That's what Feedjot is built for.

Two columns above that no growth suite can casually match

Your threads are yours

One click to export everything, one click to delete your account — no support ticket, no waiting, no "email us and we'll get to it." A data-hungry growth suite structurally can't match "we hold nothing hostage" with a feature toggle.

Recycling, without the engagement-farming

Mark a thread evergreen and Feedjot quietly re-posts it on a schedule you set — the same idea Hypefury built its whole pitch around, minus the forced auto-retweets and reply-bait that come bundled with it.

Scheduling an X thread, answered

Can I schedule a thread on X for free?

Not natively — X's composer has no scheduling option for threads at any price. Feedjot's 14-day trial (no credit card) is a free way to try full thread scheduling before paying for anything.

What happened to TweetDeck?

X rebranded it X Pro and moved it behind the $40/mo Premium+ tier — it's no longer bundled with the standard $8 Premium plan. And even on Premium+, X Pro is a multi-column feed and list viewer, not a thread scheduler.

Does X Premium+ include thread scheduling?

No. X Premium+ unlocks X Pro (the old TweetDeck) and some other perks, but scheduling a full multi-post thread still isn't one of them.

What's the cheapest reliable way to schedule an X thread?

Feedjot, at $13/mo — under a third of X's own $40/mo Premium+, and built around one job instead of a full growth-suite's worth of features you may never touch.
