Scheduling Posts

Schedule your social media posts to publish at the perfect time.

Scheduling Posts

Schedule your posts in advance so your content goes live at the best times — even when you're away.

How to Schedule a Post

  1. Create a new post (or edit a draft)
  2. Instead of clicking Publish Now, click Schedule
  3. Pick a date and time
  4. Select your time zone
  5. Click Confirm Schedule

Your post will be published automatically at the scheduled time.

Content Calendar

The Calendar view gives you a visual overview of:

  • Scheduled posts — upcoming posts waiting to be published
  • Published posts — past posts that have gone live
  • Drafts — unfinished posts you can schedule later

You can drag and drop posts on the calendar to reschedule them.
