Facebook does not publish any number that tells you how much is fine. So no figure from anyone, GCare included, counts as a "safe threshold". What you can do is run slow, do less, and only step up while your account still looks normal.
The three speed levels in GCare
- Careful: pauses 20-45 seconds between tasks, up to 15 tasks a day.
- Balanced (default): pauses 6-18 seconds, up to 30 tasks a day.
- Bold: pauses 4-10 seconds, up to 50 tasks a day.
There is also a Custom setting if you want to set your own numbers. One run posts up to 20 comments.
Where to start
New account, or one that has been quiet for a while: pick Careful. Run it for a few days, check that your comments show up normally, and only then think about stepping up. No level guarantees anything, Careful included. Facebook can still restrict an account.
Use Bold only when the account is already active every day and you accept the higher risk.
What to avoid
- The same line under many posts. Keep each comment specific to its post and mention what the person is actually asking. GCare uses AI to write from your shop profile and notes, and skips unrelated posts. Still read the first few comments to check they sound right.
- Stepping up the moment nothing has gone wrong. Move one step at a time, a few days apart.
- Cramming a huge number of tasks into one day. A little every day is lower risk.
When to stop
If Facebook warns about unusual activity, asks you to verify, or your comments stop showing for other people, switch the scenario off right away. Rest for a few days, then restart on Careful.
The takeaway: go slow, do less, keep every comment specific to its post. That lowers the risk but never removes it. There is a free plan to try.
