Migration guide

Hypefury dropped X. Here is where your queue goes.

Hypefury no longer supports X. Its own pricing FAQ says so, and its platform list is now Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and Mastodon. If your queue lives on X, you need a new home for it. OpenTweet is X-native at a flat $11.99 per month, auto-retweet and auto-plug included.

Hypefury is still a good product, just not for X

This is not a page arguing Hypefury got worse. It changed what it covers. If you also post to Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, or Mastodon, keep Hypefury for those, it is $6 per month for one channel and $19 per month for all of them. This page is only about the X-shaped hole that change left.

Hypefury genuinely wins the second row. It publishes to six networks OpenTweet does not touch, and if those matter to you it stays in your stack. Every other row is about X, which is the one network Hypefury no longer covers and the only network OpenTweet does.

The Hypefury habits that carry over

Most people who miss Hypefury on X miss two specific behaviors rather than the whole app. Both exist in OpenTweet.

Auto-retweet

  • Turn it on per post when you schedule or publish
  • Set the delay in minutes, 60 by default, or 120, 240, 480, 1440
  • Works through the API too, with auto_retweet and auto_retweet_offset_minutes

Auto-plug

  • Set an engagement threshold, then a reply that fires once a post crosses it
  • Configure a default in settings so you do not set it per post
  • Only the posts that actually take off get the plug

Export before you cancel

Anything still queued in Hypefury for X will not send, because Hypefury does not publish to X. There is no automated import between the two tools. Copy your evergreen set and any drafts out of Hypefury first, then rebuild. The evergreen set is the part worth the effort, because it is content you already know performs.

Moving in four steps

  1. Pull your evergreen posts and drafts out of Hypefury

    Check the Hypefury account settings for an export. Whatever you can get, keep. This is the only step with a deadline attached to your cancellation date.

  2. Connect your X account to OpenTweet with OAuth

    One click. OpenTweet holds the connection and refreshes the token, so there is no X developer portal application and no X pay-per-use billing on you.

  3. Rebuild the queue and turn the two switches back on

    Paste your evergreen set into the evergreen queue, set your posting slots, then enable auto-retweet and auto-plug defaults in settings so new posts inherit the behavior you are used to.

  4. Point automation at the API if you had any

    POST https://opentweet.io/api/v1/posts with an Authorization: Bearer ot_ header and a body of { text, scheduled_date } or { text, publish_now: true }. If you drive posting from Claude, Cursor, or another MCP client, add the hosted MCP server at mcp.opentweet.io/mcp instead.

Who each one is for now

Stay on Hypefury if

  • Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, or Mastodon is where you publish
  • You had already moved your audience off X
  • One non-X channel at $6 per month is the shape of your need

Move to OpenTweet if

  • X is still your platform and your queue is now stranded
  • You want auto-retweet, auto-plug, evergreen, and threads on X
  • You want a REST API and MCP tools so an agent can run the posting
  • You would rather not create an X developer account

Frequently asked questions

Does Hypefury still support X in 2026?

No. Hypefury's own pricing FAQ answers the question with "Nope! Hypefury no longer supports X". Its current platform list is Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and Mastodon. Everything else about Hypefury still works, it just does not work on X anymore.

Should I cancel Hypefury?

Only if X was the reason you paid for it. Hypefury remains a good scheduler for Bluesky, Threads, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and Mastodon, and its Flexible plan is $6 per month for one channel with the Full plan at $19 per month for all channels. If you post to those networks as well as X, the sensible setup is to keep Hypefury for them and add an X-native tool for X.

Can I get auto-retweet and auto-plug somewhere else?

Yes. OpenTweet has both. Auto-retweet reposts a post after a delay you set, defaulting to 60 minutes and configurable per post. Auto-plug appends a follow-up reply once a post crosses an engagement threshold you choose. Those two behaviors were the reason many people paid for Hypefury on X, and they carry over.

What about my evergreen queue?

OpenTweet has an evergreen queue that recycles your best posts on a schedule, with per-plan limits and guards so a source post is not reposted on top of itself. There is no automated import from Hypefury, so plan on exporting or copying your evergreen set out of Hypefury before you cancel, then pasting it in.

How much does OpenTweet cost compared to Hypefury?

OpenTweet Pro is a flat $11.99 per month for one X account and includes the REST API and MCP access. Hypefury is $6 per month for one channel on its Flexible plan or $19 per month for all channels on Full, but none of those channels can be X. The comparison is not really price against price, it is a tool that covers X against tools that do not.

Do I need an X developer account to move my queue?

No. OpenTweet holds the X connection. You connect your X account once with OAuth, and there is no X developer portal application and no X pay-per-use billing to enroll in. If you want to post from code or from an AI agent, you take an ot_ bearer key instead.

Can I export my scheduled posts out of Hypefury?

Check your Hypefury account settings for an export before you cancel, and keep whatever you get. Since Hypefury no longer publishes to X, anything still queued there for X will not send. Treat the move as a copy-and-paste rebuild rather than a data migration, and start with your evergreen set because it is the part worth keeping.

Is there an OpenTweet feature Hypefury never had?

A few. OpenTweet has a public REST API at POST /api/v1/posts, a hosted MCP server at mcp.opentweet.io/mcp with 36 tools so an AI agent can post and schedule, X Articles scheduling, and human-approved DM campaigns on the Advanced plan. If you drive anything from code or from Claude, Cursor, or another MCP client, that is the part Hypefury never offered on X.

Your X queue, back on X

Scheduling, threads, evergreen recycling, auto-retweet, auto-plug, X Articles, a REST API, and 36 MCP tools. Flat $11.99 per month, no X developer account.
