How to use the Media Queue to like posts and watch Reels

Why

The Accounts Queue works with people. The Media Queue works with content. You load posts into the Media Queue from hashtags, your feed, a profile page, or a location page. From there you can like them in bulk, watch Reels, or pull the posters, commenters, and likers into the Accounts Queue for follow/unfollow processing. This gives you a second path to finding and engaging with your target audience.

How to use it

1. Open the Media Queue tab in Growbot.
2. Click Load Media to open the dropdown menu. Choose a source:
   • Load Posts from #hashtag: type a hashtag and Growbot loads recent posts tagged with it.
   • Load Posts from Feed: loads posts from your Instagram home feed. Check Include Suggested Posts to also capture Instagram's recommendations.
   • Load Posts from Account Page: visit a profile page first, then click this button to load their posts.
   • Load Posts from Location Page: visit a location page on Instagram, then click this button.
   • Load N Posts from Accounts: loads a set number of recent posts from each account currently in the Accounts Queue. Set the number with the Load N pic(s) per account field. Check Include pinned posts if you want those too.
   • Load This Post: loads the single post you are currently viewing.
3. Set the queue limit if you want to cap the number of posts loaded.
4. Once posts are loaded, choose an action from the Process Queue dropdown:
   • Like Media Queue Posts: likes each post in the queue with a delay between each.
   • Watch Reels (BETA): opens each Reel in a new tab, waits for the video to play, then closes the tab. Check Like When Watching and Save When Watching to engage with the Reels as they play.
   • Comment on Posts: posts a comment on each item using your comment templates (set up in Settings under Commenting Options).
5. To transfer accounts from the Media Queue to the Accounts Queue:
   • Load Posters to Accounts Queue: moves the people who posted each item.
   • Check Include (some) Likers, Commenters, Tagged Users to also grab people who interacted with the posts.
   • Load Commenters to Accounts Queue: loads all commenters from the media items.
   • Load Likers to Accounts Queue: loads up to about 100 likers per post (Instagram's limit).

Tips

• Loading posts from a hashtag is a fast way to find accounts in your niche. Load the posts, then transfer the posters to the Accounts Queue for following.
• Watching Reels with Like When Watching enabled can increase your visibility because Instagram sees genuine engagement (watching and then liking).
• You can combine Media Queue and Accounts Queue in the same session. Load hashtag posts, transfer the posters, filter them, and schedule follows, all without reloading the page.
• Use Select All and Remove Random 50% to quickly trim a large media queue down to a manageable size.
