Notice of Feature Restrictions for the Lite Plan (Free Plan) Due to the Monetization of the Twitter API

We have partially resumed the provision of X (Twitter) features for Free Plan. For details, please check Free Plan now supports X (Twitter).

Regarding limitations of paid plan features, please check this announcement (Added 2023/5/19).

We have decided to discontinue the scheduled posting feature for the Lite Plan (Free). This will result in additional feature restrictions for our users. We apologize for the inconvenience, but please review the changes once again (Added 2023/5/30).

Thank you for always using SocialDog.

We would like to inform you that, due to the paid nature of the Twitter API, we have decided to significantly restrict the features available in SocialDog's Lite Plan (Free Plan).

We sincerely apologize for this sudden announcement to all our users.

At SocialDog, under our product mission to 'create a world where everyone can be a protagonist,' we have provided numerous features to all Lite Plan users. However, the usage fees for the Twitter API after it became paid are extremely high, making it difficult to continue providing features as before to Lite Plan users. Therefore, it is with a heavy heart that we have decided to significantly restrict the features of the Lite Plan.

Thank you for using SocialDog's follower management and keyword monitoring features until now.

For customers who wish to continue using the features that will be discontinued in the Lite Plan, please consider using a paid plan.
