Make sure you have connected one or more social accounts before trying to schedule a post. See here for more about connecting a social account

Walkthrough

Head over to the Composer area from the left-hand navigation menu

Head over to Composer

Choose the social accounts you would like to post to

Choose social accounts

Now we create the post content by either typing manually or using the AI tools from the top left bar

Create the post content

You can add media by clicking the Add Media button at the bottom of the composer window.

Click to add media

In the add media window you can upload directly from your device, search images from Unsplash, GIFs from Giphy, choose existing media from your media library or create a new image using AI

Choose media source

Clicking a social tab on the left will create a variant for that social channel, this means it will stand alone from the rest and you can customize the content for that particular social.

Create Variants

Here we have created a variant of Bluesky, we can now make the text and media completely different to the others.

Variant example

You can create a variant for every social channel in this post, this means you can customize the entire post to best suite each social channel

Specific options for each social channel will appear below the composer window. This is where you can customize the type of post it will be.

For example this is where you set your post up as a reel, story, poll or regular feed post.

Social Options

In the preview area, you can flick between socials to see how it will look when posted to each one

Preview your post

In the post settings area, you can choose to post instantly, add to the next posting plan slot (if you have a plan set up) or schedule by picking a date and time, here we'll cover scheduling for the future so we click on "Pick Time".

Pick a time to for the schedule

Pick the date and either use the time picker to choose a time or select one of the times of day below to generate a random time for that section of day.

Click confirm when finished.

Select the date and time and confirm

Click "Schedule" to save and schedule the post.

Click Schedule

Your post will now be scheduled
