# How to schedule Twitter/X long form posts (direct posting)

### DesktopStart

If you have 𝕏 Premium, even the Basic one, you can now schedule and automatically publish Twitter/X Long-From Posts with up to 25,000 characters!

### Schedule long-form posts with Publer

This is the easiest part. You simply start typing and we will take care of the rest.

We will detect whether you're can post long-form posts on 𝕏 and automatically switch you to the long post tab.

If you don't have 𝕏 Premium, the text will be truncated to up to 280 characters and the long post tab will be disabled.

Make sure to rely on the Live preview to prevent any undesired surprises.

### Keep in mind:

- Scheduling long-form posts is not possible on 𝕏 directly, so you must use a 3rd party app, i.e. Publer.
- These posts are different from Twitter threads, which you can already schedule and post directly through Publer, as shown [here](https://publer.com/help/en/article/how-to-schedule-twitter-threads-1nwuyrd/).
- Twitter long form posts can contain up to 25,000 characters, as long as you have the **X Premium** subscription.
- Publer will automatically detect whether your Twitter account supports post long-form posts.
