Run X and Reddit accounts with agents on Android phones
The poster put two Android phones on a desk, each running an AI agent, one operating an X/Twitter account and the other a Reddit account around the clock.
Done withOpenClaw
- What they did
- The poster set up two Android phones on stands, connected to OpenClaw and the MobileRun/DroidRun cloud, and ran one agent per phone. Each agent got a high-level task like browsing X for AI/automation posts or finding Reddit threads to comment on, then handled on-screen navigation itself by tapping, scrolling, typing, and dealing with popups; the human was still deciding how much autonomy to allow and had limited them to reading and commenting.
- How it went
- The agents reportedly found relevant threads well, typed in a natural-looking way, and usually recovered when they hit captchas or odd UI states. The poster gave no hard performance numbers, and said they were still experimenting rather than letting the agents send DMs or follow accounts.
- Worth knowing
- The clearest practical reason given was cost: the poster said using this setup to manage social accounts kept costs down because app API costs were too high.
Try it yourself with OpenClaw
Act as my social media operator for [X/Twitter or Reddit] account [handle], focused on [topic or niche] in a [tone, e.g. friendly and concise] voice. Each day, draft [number] posts and [number] replies to relevant conversations, and put them in a review list for me. Pause and show me every post, reply or message before it is published, and do not follow, delete or change settings without my approval. Each day is finished when I have a list of approved items, and at the end of the week give me a short summary of what performed best.
