The Android app Compose has been redesigned to be more intuitive and improve user experience. Users will be able to more easily and intuitively switch between sending now, drafting, scheduling and queueing messages, enabling them to manage social communications more efficiently while on the go.

Design changes include moving message picker to top bar; redesigning profile picker; ability to schedule multiple times and days; Twitter Reply and Direct Message; photo previews in Compose; and redesigning of metadata view.

Sprout users can now add a Call To Action button when publishing Facebook videos from Compose. This update is an enhancement to Sprout’s existing video publishing toolset and gives your audience the option to click a URL after watching your video.
