maebe always follows the same layout. As soon as you sign in, you'll meet the same areas – whether you're working on a post, a project or your settings.
The header (top)
A slim bar in your team's color runs across the top:
- on the left, the menu icon – one tap opens the menu – along with the logo and, on a computer, the path showing where you are right now (for example "Project › Post"),
- on the right, the bell with your team's activity and the team switcher for jumping between your teams.
You can pin frequently used teams as favorites with the star in the team switcher, so they always stay at the top.
The icon bar (on a computer)
On a computer you'll also see a slim icon bar along the left edge. Each icon has a short word underneath. Out of the box it shows Home (dashboard), Approvals (for approval roles or as soon as approvals are waiting), Planner (Social planner, with approval lists, calendar subscription and connect accounts as sub-items), Video, Pools, Link in Bio, the Create folder (Visuals, content ideas, campaigns), Chat (Community) and the folders Social Connect (Insights, Radar, Prime Time) and Identity (Brand kit, Brand voice). Which of them appear depends on your plan and your role. Your profile picture sits at the very bottom – click it to open your account. It lets you jump to your most important places without opening the menu.
You can put the bar together yourself: click More below the last icon. In the Customize sidebar window you drag the entries by their handle into your order, switch on more places from the menu (for example Radar, Insights or the Brand kit) or hide some, and add dividers wherever you'd like groups. If you drag an entry onto another one, it becomes its sub-entry – the entry then shows a small arrow in the bar, and its sub-entries appear next to it as soon as you hover over it (on a tablet with the first tap). With + Folder you add one of the folders Media, Create, Social Connect or Identity and drag entries into it – a folder has no page of its own, a click or tap only shows what's inside, and an empty folder stays out of the bar. Reset to default brings back the original bar. Your bar applies to you in all your teams – anything your plan or role doesn't include in a team simply stays out of it there. Everything always remains available in the menu.
The menu
Tap the menu icon and the menu opens full screen – close it with the X. It's split into two sides – on the left the places where you work, on the right everything that supports that work:
- Left: the Dashboard, Approvals (always visible for approval roles, for everyone else as soon as approvals are waiting), the Social planner and – if it has been enabled for you – the Video editor. Under the Social planner you'll find Projects, Approval lists and the Calendar feed.
- Right: Media (your media pools), Create (Visuals, content suggestions, campaign assistant, Link in Bio), Social Connect (Community, Insights, Prime Time, Radar and – for owners – Connect accounts) and Identity (brand kit and voice, i.e. the settings for the tone of your AI texts).
Below that sits a small row with MCP server, the help center, support and updates, plus the team card with the storage bar. At the very bottom you'll find your account (profile picture and name) and sign-out. On your phone, everything is stacked.
The page header
Every page starts with a calm header of at most two rows:
- Row 1 shows the page title, often with a back link above it (for example "← Home") and a small piece of extra info next to it.
- Row 2 – if the page needs one – holds what you see: the view switcher (such as grid, list or calendar), filters and sorting. On your phone, filters and sorting fold into a picker button that opens a sheet from the bottom.
You deliberately won't find action buttons in the header – they live in the bar at the bottom.
The bar at the bottom
Everything you can do on a page sits in a rounded bar floating at the bottom center. It's always ordered the same way:
- on the left, AI (if the page has AI features),
- in the middle, the page's tools,
- … for less frequent things like archiving, moving or deleting,
- on the far right, the one main action in your team color – for example New post, New project or New pool.
When you select something – say, several media in a pool – the bar turns dark: on the left you cancel (× or Cancel), next to it sit the actions for your selection. On your phone the bar only shows icons plus the word of the main action. On a computer, an icon's name appears when you point at it with your mouse.
Tip: You can archive finished projects in the team overview (round archive icon on the project tile). They disappear from the project grid but are fully kept with all posts and media — the collapsible Archive section at the bottom lets you open or restore them at any time.
The dashboard
Your dashboard is made of modules – such as Up next, Waiting for your approval or Activity. Via Customize in the bar at the bottom you drag them into a new order, pick their size, remove them or add more via Add module; Done finishes editing. Which modules are offered to you depends on your plan and your role.
The Quick access module bundles your most frequent destinations: Create post, Create pool and jumps into your tools.
The workspace
This is where the actual work happens. Depending on the page, it's laid out differently:
- A content column with the main area – that is, the list, the calendar, the editor or the form.
- A context column on the right with settings and status info about whatever you currently have open, for example in the post editor. Some views don't have one, so you get more room.
Color scheme
maebe comes in several color schemes. You set your own in your account under Appearance. Inside a team, that team's color scheme applies – so you can tell at a glance which team you're in.
