Profile picture from connected social accounts is returned in low resolution instead of highest available quality

When retrieving the profile picture of a connected social media account via the API, the returned image URL appears to be a resized thumbnail (e.g., 206x206) instead of the highest available resolution provided by the platform. For example, the URL returned includes parameters such as: stp=dst-jpg_s206x206 which indicates that the image has already been resized by the CDN. However, when accessing the same profile manually through the platform (e.g., Instagram), the profile picture can be opened in a significantly higher resolution (typically around ~1024px or higher). This suggests that a higher-quality version of the image exists and is publicly accessible. Since the account is already connected through the official API integration, it would be very useful if the API could return: the highest available profile picture resolution, or an additional field such as profilePictureHd / profilePictureOriginal This would allow developers to store and use higher quality avatars without needing to perform additional scraping or manual extraction. Providing the highest resolution available from the official API would improve use cases such as: displaying profile avatars in dashboards generating social media previews storing high-quality user profile images It would be great if this could be added as an optional field or configuration in the API response.

Instagram Feed Preview / Grid Simulation

It would be very helpful to have an Instagram feed preview feature inside Late. Being able to see how scheduled posts appear together in a grid (for example a 3x3 or 3x4 preview) is extremely important when planning visually curated feeds. Many brands rely heavily on the aesthetic balance of their feed, especially in industries such as beauty, esthetics, interior design, furniture, fashion, footwear and other visually driven products. Tools like Preview became popular because they allow users to plan the visual harmony of the feed before publishing. Having this feature in Late would make it much easier to use Late as the main social media planning tool. It would be great if users could: • see scheduled posts in a grid preview • drag posts to reorder them • simulate upcoming posts before publishing

Post Recycling / Automated Reposting

Summary: Add the ability to schedule a post for automatic recycling (reposting) at defined intervals through the API. This would allow API users to configure evergreen content to be republished on a set cadence without requiring manual rescheduling or external automation. Desired Functionality: Define a repost interval (e.g., every 2 weeks, every 1 month) when scheduling a post via the API Set a start date for when recycling should begin Control when recycling stops, either by specifying a maximum number of reposts or an expiration date Option to recycle posts individually or as part of a grouped rotation Use Case: We manage social content programmatically through the API and have a significant amount of evergreen content (promotional offers, educational resources, recurring reminders) that needs to be reshared on a regular basis. Currently, this requires us to build and maintain our own scheduling logic externally, then make repeated API calls to reschedule the same content. Native recycling support would eliminate that overhead and keep the scheduling logic centralized within Late. Example Payload (for reference): { "recycling": { "gap": 2, "gap_freq": "Week", "start_date": "2025-06-01", "expire_count": 5 } } Additional Notes: Spintax or text variation support would be a strong complement to this feature, helping avoid duplicate content flags on platforms like Twitter/X and Pinterest. Platform-level controls would be useful since not every network supports or allows identical reposting (e.g., YouTube, TikTok). This is a feature already offered by competitors like Publer in their API, so adding it would help close a gap in Late's API capabilities. https://publer.com/docs/posting/create-posts/publishing-methods/recycling-posts

🏆 [Quick / High Value] Customizable, Hosted UI for OAuth Workflow

Current Feature: You already have the ability for us to white label the OAuth workflow with &headless: https://docs.getlate.dev/core/connect The Problem: We have to create and manage UI + it doesn’t work for all platforms, only a few, so it creates a broken user experience across our platform. Users get our hosted UI sometimes and getlate.dev hosted UI other times. That’s not optimal UX. The Solution: Allow us to customize your hosted UI, eliminate the need for custom UI unless we want it for some reason beyond the basic UI already provided. Example from your competitor: Bundle.social already offers this, it’s super simple. You use their hosted UI but you’re able to brand it to your brand with a few simple params. I imagine this isn’t far off from what you already have built with your hosted UI but it would be a HUGE value to all of us who want a proper whitelabeled experience. Full overview: https://info.bundle.social/api-reference/connect-social-accounts Parameters section: https://info.bundle.social/api-reference/connect-social-accounts#parameters The end result is a branded UI on a hosted OAuth experience (see attachement, but with params having our own brand instead of theirs) Bundle.social hosted UI, which is customizable: Bundle.social params that can easily be manipulated to style across all platforms through OAuth

Inbox Feature - Filter by Unread and Notification Icons

Inbox is currently a very on demand feature, you have to go check it to see if anything new is there. I would love it if we had two improvements: - prioritizing anything unread, filtering out some old noise this way (default, unread only) perhaps? - Some sort of visual indicator for unread Messages or DMs from any page so you know when to check the inbox! On another note if this is implemented I think it would be best if notification icons only appeared for those with the inbox feature subscription as to avoid accidentally creating a dark pattern (of having unread notifications but no way to read them without paying, would feel like something I’ve seen in some unsavory mobile apps)

Usage Based Addon Billing

Greetings! The addon billing is advertised as costing roughly $1/social set/month for the features in documentation. This is partially true, but the account owner must purchase for all social sets in the tenant. It would be nice if we could do usage based billing in arrears, as I personally use less than 1/5th of my tenant’s allotted social sets (less than 10), but the inbox add-on (and I suspect future addons) require purchase the addon for all 50 social sets for us to get the feature. We are interested in giving inbox a try with an annual discount to soften the blow, but it feels like a bit much based on how the pricing is marketed. If future add-ons cost as much we will likely quickly be priced out, but with usage based billing we can certainly utilize budgeting more effectively for more addons. If we could add on a per-profile basis as well that would be very nice as not every profile may want all every feature. We had a few profiles off board due to privacy concerns with direct message ingesting to be specific.
