Instagram tools
Comments inbox, the Auto Responder for comments and DMs, the DM inbox, the Studio with its content calendar, email notifications, and hashtag analytics.
Comments inbox
Every comment on your posts lands in the inbox the moment it happens. Filter by flagged or hidden, and hide, unhide, delete, or reply without opening the Instagram app.
Note
Auto Responder
Every automation lives here as a card: pause it with the switch, click it to edit, or delete it from the card. A responder listens to either comments or direct messages. Comment responders match keywords and then flag, hide, delete, reply, or send the commenter a DM as a private reply. DM responders answer an incoming message that matches your keywords, right in the same conversation. Matching is whole-word and case-insensitive; phrases match anywhere.
Comment responders can run on every post or only the posts you pick. Choose Specific posts in the editor and tap the posts it should watch; everything else is ignored. DM senders and commenters getting a DM are only messaged once per person by default.
DM responders can also send an attachment: a picture (png or jpeg, under 8 MB) or an audio message (m4a, wav, or aac, under 10 MB, so a voice-memo export works). The attachment goes out right after the text, or on its own if you leave the text empty. Instagram's private replies are text-only, so attachments are for DM responders, not comment-to-DM ones.

Messages
Your DM threads, including every campaign DM Metryx sent for you. Reply straight from the dashboard. Instagram allows free-form replies within 24 hours of the other person's last message; outside that window a send fails with a clear message rather than silently disappearing.
The Studio
The Studio is where you make posts. Compose on the left and watch the phone on the right render it the way Instagram will: the feed card with your avatar and caption fold, your profile grid with the new post slotted in, or the story view. Queue images, reels, carousels, and stories; attach media by upload or public URL; the optional first comment posts your hashtags right after publish, keeping the caption clean. Metryx posts within five minutes of the scheduled time.
The When panel reads your audience's online hours and offers the best upcoming slots as one-tap chips, and the caption assist suggests hashtags from your own history, ranked by how much they lift views.
People and details: tag people by tapping the preview photo right where the tag should sit, invite up to 3 collaborators, add alt text to images, and label AI-generated content. Reels take a custom cover, an audio name, and a share-to-feed toggle.
Below the composer sits everything you have queued, as a Queue list or a Calendar. Nothing in the queue is final: click a row's pencil, or any post on the calendar, and it loads straight back into the composer. A bar at the top of the composer says you are editing a queued post, Schedule becomes Save changes, and Cancel throws the edit away. Posts that have already gone out are the exception, and they say so when you click them.

The content calendar
Switch the queue to Calendar and your posts lay out on the days they actually land on. Month gives you the shape of a plan at a glance. Week gives each day a full column, with the thumbnail, the time, and the first couple of lines of the caption. The arrows move you a month or a week at a time, Today brings you back, and the timezone every day is bucketed in sits at the top right.
Drag a post to another day to move it. It keeps its time of day, so a post set for 7:30 PM is still 7:30 PM on the day you drop it, and the new time saves the moment you let go. Drafts with no time yet wait in a tray above the grid, labeled with how many there are; drag one onto a day and it takes noon on that day, or the next clean hour if noon has already gone by. Clicking an empty day does the same thing from the other direction: it jumps you to the composer with that day already filled in, at noon, or at the next clean hour if the day you picked is today.
A small dot next to a date means your audience is usually online that day. Hover it for the hours. In Week view the dot sits next to the day name at the top of the column, and a quiet day with nothing scheduled tells you the best hour outright.
Posts that already went out are muted and locked: you cannot drag them, and clicking one just tells you it has published. A failed post is muted too, but you can still click it to open it in the composer, fix whatever broke, and give it a new time.
Note
Tip
Scheduled Instagram posts also show up on the profile's Calendar page, alongside your reports and Discord work, and you can drag them between days there too.
Notifications and the weekly digest
Notifications email you when something deserves a look: a follower spike or drop past your threshold (set it as a percent or an absolute count), a crossed follower milestone, a post outperforming your usual numbers, a scheduled post that failed to publish, flagged comments, new DMs waiting, or a broken connection (expired token, revoked access). The weekly digest is a week-in-review email, on the day you pick: followers, views, reach, interactions, and your top post.
By default everything goes to the profile owner. Under Delivery you can point it at any profile member or a custom address instead, and send a test email to prove delivery works before you wait on a real trigger.
Note
Hashtag performance
Metryx reads the hashtags from your own recent captions and ranks them by what actually happened: how often you used each one, the average views and engagement rate on posts that carried it, and the lift against your account's average post. No tracking lists, no caps, because it's built from your posts rather than Instagram's hashtag search.
Set the window with the same date range picker the rest of your stats pages use, click any column to re-sort, and filter to hashtags you've used more than once when one-offs are noise.
