What reaches both
2 kinds of post reach both Facebook and TikTok:
| You upload | On Facebook | On TikTok |
|---|---|---|
| Reel / Short video — one vertical video | Published as a Facebook Reel. | Posted as a TikTok video. |
| Social photo post — a photo with a caption | Posted as a photo on your Facebook Page. | Posted as a TikTok photo. |
What does not carry across
Worth knowing before you plan a batch — these are limits of the networks, not of the tool:
- Product reaches Facebook but not TikTok.
Limits worth knowing first
- Facebook: Posts go to a Facebook Page, never a personal profile.
- TikTok: A video arrives in your TikTok drafts and you tap Post in the app to publish it — TikTok's draft API carries no caption, so the text is written in the app.
Connecting the two accounts
- Facebook connects with one click, through its own login screen.
- TikTok connects with one click, through its own login screen.
Both connect once and stay connected; if a network expires its own token, the account is paused and you are emailed to reconnect it rather than left with posts silently failing.
How it works
- Connect Facebook and TikTok in Integrations.
- Upload your vertical video or photo once and pick both as targets.
- Let the AI write a caption per network, or write your own.
- Publish now, or schedule it. Each delivery is tracked separately.
Frequently asked questions
Can I post to Facebook and TikTok at the same time?
Yes. reel / short video and social photo post posts reach both Facebook and TikTok from a single upload — you choose both as targets and publish once.
Does the caption have to be identical on Facebook and TikTok?
No. SOSPosting writes a separate, native caption for each network — the length, tone and hashtags that suit Facebook are not the ones that suit TikTok. You can edit either before publishing, or write both yourself.
What can I not send to both?
A product post reaches Facebook but not TikTok. Those are limits of the networks themselves, not of the tool.
What happens if one of them fails?
Each network is delivered independently, so one failing does not block the other. A delivery that fails for good is refunded automatically — you are not charged tokens for a post that never went out.
