Social Planner Media Upgrade

I have been using a Social Media aggregator software for awhile now and I love the features of scheduling posts, reels and shorts.
This is a great feature within Social Planner.
However, I think there are some enhancements that can be very powerful and efficient in time.
- The Media Folder is difficult to manage, imho. When I upload a few videos They appear without a thumbnail. Thumbnails are helpful to know exactly what content I am looking to use quickly.
- Categories, Labels & Tags. Even though it's possible to separate content into folders, It's still a bit tedious. It would be more efficient to have a settings applicable to each image/video to allow for Labels and Tags. Folders are nice, but, there are still content that can be labeled and tagged within folders.
- Deleting images/videos is currently most tedious and time consuming. If I've uploaded a few videos or images for a campaign and decide to make changes then I'm subject to delete each image/video singularly which is very time consuming. It would be more efficient to be able to select multiple pieces of content to bulk delete.
- Being able to select a piece of media in the media folder and creating a post would be very efficient. If I can select a piece of media and then open it up in the "New Post" Page that would save time as well.
I love automation and aggregation software which saves a lot of time. But, the setup and management within Social Planner isn't efficient for me. I can work with other software that are so much faster and efficient.
I love the other implementations for Social Planner. ie, available for Memberships and Communities.
I realize the Social Planner itself is a big app within GHL and integrate comprehensively. A big undertaking of course.
Just some thoughts and suggestions.
Thank you.

heck, I'd settle for the ability to upload multiple medias at a time versus one at a time.

Bulk selection of images is a must. You can upload many images at once, but to add them to a post you have to go through and select them one by one, which makes the job of putting together a post unnecessarily long (imagine a 15 image post - that's fifteen times you have to go add image > select "uploa from media library" > select the image)

Agreed. I would also add...
- Bulk posting options. So essentially you can grab multiple pieces from the library and be creating multiple posts at once rather than one at a time
- Carousel posts without having to go back to the library for each pic. Basically the ability to select multiple pics at once
- The ability to set an auto post schedule so you don't have to set the date/time manually for every post
- Push to post notifications option vs. auto post. Social media is favoring manual posting, so it would be nice to be able to create the schedule but NOT auto post, and instead have a push notification to remind the user to post manually
- Ability to add location (I might be missing that if it already exists because it's a super common feature but I don't see it)
