Schedule and publish to Bluesky
Post to Bluesky next to Threads, X and the rest, now, on a date or through a queue. Links, mentions and hashtags come out clickable, and the 300 characters are counted the way Bluesky counts them.
What you can publish
Text posts and link cards
Up to 300 characters. A link in a post without media becomes a link card.
Image posts
Up to 4 images, each with its alt text.
Video posts
One video of up to 3 minutes.
What SPREVA checks before it publishes
Every post is checked against these limits for each Bluesky account you picked, in the editor and again right before it goes out, so a problem shows up while you can still fix it.

How connecting works
Bluesky connects with your handle and an app password, which you create in Bluesky under Settings, Privacy and security, App passwords. There is no browser sign-in to go through.
The app password is used once to open a session and is never stored; the session itself is kept encrypted.
What SPREVA adds
Links, mentions and hashtags that work
SPREVA marks up links, @mentions and #hashtags the way Bluesky expects, so they are clickable when the post appears.
Link cards
Post a link without media and it shows as a card. With images attached the link stays in the text, and SPREVA tells you before you publish.
Alt text from your library
The description saved on an image in Media goes out as its alt text on Bluesky.
And as on every network: its own text for any account, an approximate preview, publishing now, on a date or through a queue, a retry for only the accounts that failed, and each post's numbers read back into Analytics.
Questions about Bluesky
Can I schedule Bluesky posts?
Yes. Publish now, choose a date and time, or add the post to a queue that fills your next free slot.
Can I post to Bluesky and Threads at once?
Yes. Pick both accounts in one post. Bluesky takes 300 characters and Threads 500, so give Bluesky a shorter text of its own when it needs one. SPREVA shows which account is over its limit before you publish.
Why does SPREVA ask for an app password?
Bluesky lets apps sign in with an app password instead of your main one. Create one just for SPREVA, and never enter your main password.
Does an emoji count as more than one character on Bluesky?
No. Bluesky counts what you see, so an emoji or an accented letter is one character, and SPREVA counts the same way.
