Unfold is a mobile app for creating social content, with hundreds of templates, photo and video filters and effects, and an Instagram feed planner. It also lets users create a Bio Site as a link-in-bio page. Unfold Pro adds a Brand Kit for stories, with custom colors, logos, stickers, and fonts, plus a web dashboard for managing those assets. The dashboard is supported on Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge. Pro users can schedule Instagram posts for automatic publishing when an Instagram Business Account is connected to Meta Business Manager; without that connection, the app provides reminders instead. Unfold and Bio Sites features require Business or Creator Instagram accounts, since personal profiles are no longer compatible. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web. The free plan is free; Plus costs $4.99 a month and Pro costs $12.99 a month. A Pro subscription cannot be shared across multiple Apple IDs or Google Play accounts, and users must use the same operating system. Unfold is a Squarespace product.
