Reviewing and scheduling
When your posts go out
Your posting schedule decides the days and times your approved posts go out. Set your own times, or let us move them to when your followers are most active.

How it works
Each post you approve takes the next free time on your posting schedule. Unless you change it, we post at 12:30 PM in your time zone, one post per account per day. If you approve more posts than fit in a week, they fill the following weeks in order.
With Hands-free posting on, we approve your drafts for you: each week, enough of them to fill your posting times until your next drafts arrive.
Change your posting schedule
Go to Settings > Schedule > Posting schedule.
- Tap a day to turn it on or off. At least one day has to stay on.
- Tap a day's time to change it.
- To post more than once on a day, tap + to add another time. You can set up to 4 times a day.
The Mon, Wed, Fri, Weekdays and Every day buttons replace your whole schedule with one time on each of those days.
A change applies to posts you approve from then on. Posts already on your Calendar keep their times. To move one of those, see Changing a post.
We learn your best times
Once 8 of your posts have gone out, we look at which hours get your posts the most engagement, and move the times you've left for us to choose to those hours.
Your times always win. We never change a time you set yourself. To let us choose all of them again, tap Let us choose all the times under your posting schedule.
Your time zone
Every time in Settings and Calendar uses your time zone. Change it in Settings > Schedule, or from the time zone on your Calendar.
Posts already scheduled still go out at the same moment. The calendar just shows that moment in the new time zone. For example, if you switch to a time zone one hour ahead, a post at 5:30 PM now reads 6:30 PM, and it still goes out at the same moment as before. New posting times and the day your drafts arrive use the new time zone.
The day your drafts arrive
Your drafts arrive on the same day every week, Monday at 8:00 AM unless you change it. Choose any day, at 7:00, 8:00, 9:00 or 10:00 AM, in Settings
Schedule > Weekly drafts. A change applies from your next weekly drafts.
How many arrive is set by your plan: 10 posts and 1 video every week, or 5 videos with the Video plan. It doesn't change with how often you post. Drafts you don't approve simply wait in Review.
