*Some frequent questions:*

> Can you use Buffer with multiple Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn accounts?

Yes, Buffer work with multiple accounts for Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Just sign in at http://buffer.com and click "Connect Account" from the Dashboard or Settings.

> Can you schedule individual Twitter tweets and Facebook posts with Buffer like you can with Hootsuite and TweetDeck?

No, Buffer is different to normal scheduling like that found in Hootsuite and TweetDeck. Unlike Hootsuite and TweetDeck, with Buffer you do not need to select the individual date and time for every update you schedule.

You simply add new updates to the queue and Buffer publishes them for you, well spaced out over the day.

> Why do we need to access you data on all websites?

This is required so we can let you Buffer from any page on the web - without it, Buffer wouldn't work! We don't actually access any of your data – the only thing we store is the content you add to your queues, so there's no need to worry!
