Connect your X account
Sign in on X and allow Octoque. X posts are counted per month on each paid plan; a post with a link counts as 10. On Free, Octoque reminds you to post to X yourself.
Updated
Before you start
- An X account you can sign in to.
- A plan with X posts: 30 a month on Starter, 150 on Creator, 500 on Studio, and 10 during the trial. The Free plan doesn’t post to X, but it can remind you to post there yourself. See Plans and limits.
Steps
- In Octoque, go to You → Connected accounts.
- Tap Connect next to X (or Add another if one is already connected).
- Sign in on X’s page and authorise Octoque.
- You’re back in Octoque with a note such as “@yourname connected”, and the account shows Connected.

Troubleshooting
You've used this month's 30 X posts on Starter (a post with a link counts as 10). Upgrade for more, or leave X out.
Your plan’s X posts for this month are used up (the numbers match your plan; a post with a link uses 10). Leave X out of this post, wait for next month, or move to a bigger plan.
