Changing a post
Like a post except for one thing? Open it and change the caption, the picture, the day it goes out or where it's posted. It keeps its approval.

Change the caption
Open the post in Calendar and edit the caption. You can also approve a draft with Change in Review and say what you'd like reworded.
- One caption per platform. Each platform can have its own wording. Open the post and give that platform its own caption.
- Length limits. Most platforms refuse a caption that's too long, so we tell you when you save. X and Threads have shorter limits, and there we shorten a long caption at the end of a whole word.
- Hashtags. Whether the hashtags at the end are kept depends on the platform. See How posting works.
Change the picture
- Open the post and choose Edit picture.
- For a carousel, pick the slide you want to change.
- Describe the change, for example "make it brighter" or "remove the cup on the left".
It takes about a minute. We keep every earlier version, so you can always go back: open the post and tap the version you want.
A change to a picture uses 1 credit. The first 3 changes to each picture are free.
Change the day and time
- On a computer: drag the post to another day on the Calendar. It keeps its time.
- Anywhere: open the post and choose a new date and time. Any future time works, including later today.
Moving a post never uses credits, and it doesn't change your weekly posting schedule.
To hold a post without deleting it, open it and tap Unschedule. It moves to Unscheduled posts at the bottom of your Calendar. When you're ready, tap Choose a time.
Change where it's posted
Open the post and use the switches under Post to to choose which accounts it goes to. If Stories are on, you can also turn off its Instagram Story or Facebook Story there.
A change never removes the post's approval. It goes out at its time with your changes.
