How to Use Social Inbox on Mobile

With Social Inbox on the SocialPilot mobile app, you can view and reply to messages, comments, and mentions from all your connected social media accounts, on the go.

Note:

The functionality of Social Inbox on mobile is similar to the desktop version (except for one limitation on mobile — you cannot add or edit Inbox accounts from the mobile app; always use the web version for the same).

  • Double-tap or long-press a message to like it (only available in messages).
  • Tap on any image or video to open it in full-screen view.

Step 6: Stay Notified

Enable mobile notifications directly from your web app’s Notification Settings:

Go to Settings → Notifications and turn on the new Mobile App option. Now you’ll receive real-time updates for every new message, comment, or mention.

Note: Limitation on Mobile
