Here is how to post the same video to Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts at the same time. And yes, they all publish DIRECTLY (no need for mobile notifications).
You can also use this tool to SCHEDULE videos to post to Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts for the future.
And yes, there is a Free Plan 😊
Posting to Reels, TikTok, and Shorts all at once
To post to TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts at the same time, you can use the social media scheduling tool OneUp. OneUp posts to all 3 directly, and has a Free Plan 🤓 (Facebook Reels is not shown here, but it IS supported in OneUp as well!)
The first step is to connect your Instagram account, Facebook Page, TikTok account, and YouTube channel to the Accounts page of OneUp:

Then click “Create a post”, and then select which accounts you want to post to (probably the YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram accounts in this case, but OneUp also supports Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Google Business Profiles as well):

Then add your video and caption, and add your YouTube Shorts title:

Keep scrolling down and you will find the option to choose the thumbnail (aka cover image) for your Instagram Reel, YouTube Short, and your TikTok video:

Then either post it to all 3 platforms now, schedule the post for a later date, or save it as a draft:

That is how you post to Instagram Reels (and Facebook Reels), YouTube Shorts, and TikTok all at the same time.
OneUp also supports video posts on Twitter, Pinterest, and LinkedIn, so that means that a single video can now be posted to TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, YouTube Shorts, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Twitter – all at the same time with OneUp!
Check out OneUp to save yourself a ton of time from manually opening the Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok apps each time you want to post a video 🤓
And yes, OneUp has a Free Plan.
if saved as a draft, will the edited one not be lost?
